We're a very tolerant lot - you could express almost any opinion and have a civil conversation here - as long as it is civil and politely worded.

As for maturity here...well, most users either mature out of necessity after being here for a while or they simply do not remain here, leaving a mature community (more or less). Or something like that, anyway.

Not to say we're always mature and boring - see the IRC and any number of IRC shenanigan pages about the site and you'll see.
