Ok Lamia, listen very close because you’ve failed to grasp this so far.
1.) We have opposing viewpoints.
2.) Those viewpoints are based on experience, opinion, and personal observation.
By telling me I did something wrong in stating my viewpoint you are essentially telling me that my viewpoint is wrong and I should retract it. Are you really going to sit there and tell me that you speak for all lesbians and I can’t have observed them being treated overly nice?
now please - pretty please with a thousand cherries on top - stop hijacking my thread and take your discussion/debate elsewhere. it is not going to be resolved here.
please disregard the caps. my caps lock button broke halfway through this post.
Okay Cisco, listen very close because you’ve failed to grasp this so far:
My problem with you is that you have pretended to apologize, you have received credit for apologizing, but you have not actually apologized for anything but posting movie spoilers.
If that is all you wanted to apologize for, then fine. If you don’t care that you have offended other posters, then fine. If you want to explicitly refuse to apologize for this, then fine. You are free to behave any way you like. I am merely pointing out – in a Pit thread you have started about yourself, the most perfect place in the world for such a thing – that this is not the best, or even a particularly acceptable, way to behave.
You got that? This is not about you having peculiar delusions about lesbians, it is about you acting like a jerk. Considering that you asked to be flamed I don’t see how this is off-topic at all, and I think all things told you have gotten off lightly.
My opinion that you’re being a jerk? Well, I’ll admit that is fairly subjective, but I think most people would agree that coming right out and saying that you want to apologize for being a jerk, but that you’re going to refuse to include a particular incidence of jerk-like behavior in that apology, is a pretty jerky thing to do.
Or perhaps you mean my opinion that you are either deluded or lying about lesbians, an opinion that we have both agreed is not really the issue at hand? I don’t know why you’d want to bring that up again, since you just begged me to drop it.
Because her position is supported by ample evidence. Your position is a simple personal observation with little support. She’s right and you’re wrong. Remember how I recommended you read the gaybashing thread? Remember how I referenced articles pointing out real-life examples of discrimination? Ever wonder why the Playboy channel has so much girl-on-girl action?
