Oh, the irony here. Stoid herself is a bit of a crusader for the rights of sex-workers, and would probably object to your claim that calling someone a “whore” is a bad thing. You are perpetuating the idea that a woman who has casual sex is less worthy than a woman who guards her hoo-ha like the Louve. And I tend to agree with Stoid on that point. But I still consider the word “whore” to be slander because it can cause damage to a person’s reputation, rightly or wrongly.

Stoid basically told me what she thought already, privately.  
I’m not going to repeat what she said, because she asked me not to. However, I do think I at least owe it to this place to say, I think she’s more full of shit than ever. And I don’t think I’m doing anything wrong by saying this. She may disagree, but I feel I have a right to my say.  
Gaydar is one thing-rumor mongering and gossip is totally another. Remember the movie, In and Out-? Where a person was outed by a movie star? Really, is it any of our goddamn business to out people?

Stoid, take your rumors elsewhere. I’ve had it with you.  
In the past, I thought you annoying, but occasionally you had decent things to say. Not anymore. I think you’re a hateful, nasty person who gets pleasure out of telling others off. I think you enjoy it.

Do I? No. I tell people off if they annoy me. I admit I love to argue and flame wars can be fun. But usually after that, I can let it go. Not you. You have some sort of grudge.  
Go to hell, bitch.

Um…Why do you care weather someone is gay or not? Any of you? If you’re not fucking them, why does it matter? Sheesh!
