Don't know if this is the right place to put this but if its not someone can move it.
The forum guidelines include Bigotry, racism, religion-bashing or aggressively homophobic language.
What about sexism? It is discrimination, how come it isn't included in the guideline section?

ya, you're probably rite, this belongs in a different forum. But it's an excellent point: intimidation and hatred are often directed at women, just like any of those other groups. I've never seen it done here, but it should be banned.
what you need to realise (and I'm not offended) is not everyone will take it as a joke. You wouldn't get away with making racist jokes/comments so you shouldn't get away with sexist jokes/comments. Which is what my point is.
I also think mods need to be a bit more controlled with what they say. Any discrimination from a mod makes the site look very bad.
Master Bush you've made plenty of sexist comment/jokes. Take your Mod status more seriously.

Seriously(sexism aside) Grow a pair.
it goes with what lack said about context in the avatar thread, if you put it in a joking context its fair game and you could even make racist jokes. Also making a sexist joke isn't discrimination, because they think of you the same way, you are the one putting yourself down by saying its sexist.
smileys are usually added when one wants to show his post to be "funny".
so a post devoid of smiley is asking for misinterpretation, and whatever you guys might think, it's not the reader's job to guess the right meaning and interpretation of someone else's post. That's the writer's concern.
Teya, we haven't noticed it to be a problem. But then again, CC isn't really the place for overly-sensitive people anyway, male or female. There's not much that can be done about the bumbling idiots known as teenage boys, so we just ignore them.
There seem to be a lot more females on here lately, which is cool.
most people are fairly mature about prejudice etc and there hasn't been any major problems although every now and then some1 will get offended but more often than not most people will b on the offended person's side so it turns out alrite.
there are 4 types of people in most arguments:
the offender
the offended
the stache or the stache-like
the crazy
the offender offends people left rite and centre,
the offended moans a lot and complains (whether their offense is justified or not)
the stache-like post unrelated pics and the stache post even bigger unrelated pics
the crazy hav no idea wat they r doing
if u truly find u hav a problem then say so and then let the people b the judge of it
and are very intimidated by us
