For a lady that as you define yourself is "Streetwise", you seem to show very little tolerance or understanding of the various situations on the forum.
When someone posts something that you feel offensive, it is not meant to be that way at all, especially if the post contains "smileys"....
It is just banter, to keep things on the lighter side.
Sexual innuendos are ingrained in the british culture (if they have one at all), and there is nothing you can do or say to change that.
All the pinays on the forum, have learnt that, in the first months or years that they spent in this country.
Sometime it may seem offensive, obviously, because it loses a lot by trying to translate it, but I can assure you that no harm or offense is intended.
If someone mentions "breasts", it is normally meant as a huge compliment, unless that lady in question looks like Imelda Marcos grandmother....
So relax, don't get uptight, try to read old threads and you will see that the they will have some kind of humour in them, enjoy the forum.
