> As for **Eve** , **FaerieBeth** hit the nail on the head. The reason **Eve** keeps getting thrown out into the spotlight every single time the “question” of gender identity and transsexuality comes up, is simple: because she’s one of the most interesting people on the message boards.

I have always appreciated (and enjoyed) **Eve** ’s humor and outlook on all things fashion and entertainment. I am currently weirded out, though, because I don’t think I have posted to this thread, nor can I find anyone with a similar username to mine who has. Maybe I’m not looking close enough? Maybe I have been body snatched?

😃 At least I was mistaken for being nice and correct about something!

**Eve** , I totally understand about being overextended. I hope things lighten up for you soon!

Geez louise. Even when I’m trying to be all “tough love” but nice and all, I get sloppy and mess it up. I meant **FisherQueen** ’s post. That’s what I get for posting my long tirades separated by meetings. Sorry for the confusion, and sorry for bumping the thread again.

Watch those assumptions, **Lord Ashtar**. This was an unusual Pit thread to be sure, but **Eve** acted entirely properly (it goes with the pearls) by posting her preference to have it closed. We rarely, if ever, close a Pitting simply at the request of the Pittee–and not always at the request of the OP.

The request was made privately as well but none of us were online at the moment to handle it. Work and all, y’know.

Thread closed at the request of the OP and assent by the subject.
