If that puts you in the minority, we are right there with you. Although there are some who feel that everyone is entitled to freely express their opinion despite any relevance to the issue at hand, we disagree. The way we see it, actually reading the question can go a long way towards guiding whether or not one should respond...

If someone states a question as: "What do you think about body piercings?", then they are asking for views/opinions both for or against.. and should expect both. But if the question is: "Of those of you with body piercings, what does it do for you?", following the logic that someone whose 'cup of tea' wasn't body piercing wouldn't have any - that should be a thread they have nothing to contribute to.

Personally,we tend to see those type of responses more as an attempt to change someone's view on the subject than an attempt to answer the question posed.
