Meeting Vids

Post by ricoishere »

Just to inform members: After watching some of Ghazanfar's vid on his 215, I walked away. Lo and behold, I came back, and say the next vid in the You tube line up: "Angelita Gwapa" :D . A bikini clad lady, practicing her strip tease routine :shock: . Well, the lil ones didn't see the vid, they were in the other room. You tube does load the next related vid by title. LOL. Maybe a notice to watchers, as this is a family oriented site! :mrgreen:

Rico, that particular video does not seem to be coming up in the "related videos" any more, but I had noticed that as well. Sorry if anyone was offended, but we have no control over YouTube, and clearly Google's matching algorithms could use a little work.

Not offended at all :D. Just amused for a moment. I don't want anyone getting yelled at because they walked away, and there it is!

the GWAPA acronym on videos

Post by Mark F. »

This YouTube title-linkage problem may recur with future videos: "gwapa" is a slang term in the Phillipines for an attractive woman, on a par with the English phrase "foxy babe" - in other words, it wasn't just that one young woman's name. There's probably hundreds of short amature porn videos on YouTube with the word "gwapa" in them. The term derives from the Phillipines' history as a former colony of Spain; "guapa" is the feminine of "guapo", which is Spanish for "handsome".

As I recall, there are minors in the club's membership, so I'd like to suggest a means of preventing this from happening in the future: spell out the club's full name on future YouTube videos, in lieu of using the GWAPA acronym.

Good suggestion, Mark, I was not aware of that slang term. I will change the video descriptions and tags so that they spell out the acronym, maybe that will help.

This reminds me of when "Bikini Shakespeare" videos came up on a search for "aquascaping." I don't see the connection, but maybe there's a Shakespearian allusion there...

Now I wonder if all this isn't also working the other way around: imagine some guy searching for "gwapas in thongs" getting a hit on the intimate apparel listing on our store page - he clicks on "home", hoping to see that underwear being modeled, and instead sees the first paragraph of meeting notes for a planted aquarium club ... that ought to cool his jets! :lol:

AH! That kinda explains that Mercedes coupe I saw with the GWAPA license plate. For a period of time I thought we had a club car.
