ORIGINAL: Sirandlittle1 People will only ever treat you as you allow them to. little1 Now I don't quite get the logic behind this statement. So you're telling me someone gets their car stolen because they 'allow' it? A woman gets raped because she 'allows' it? IMHO just as with theft and rape, there is NO justification for rudeness or insulting someone. Just because someone lets you insult them doesn't make it okay. To the OP - I'm TS and I get called a man quite often not just by men but also women. I understand where you're coming from because not long ago I got hounded off another BDSM website by several rather nasty and hostile individuals. It got to the point where I thought 'online or not, if this is the BDSM community is becoming then I want out'. Every so often I also get nasty messages from people who just have to pass comment, but then again I get nice and kind messages too, particularly on Collarme from not just other Dommes but also male Doms. It's easy to say you shouldn't let it bother you. I know I shouldn't, but sometimes I can't help it. I'm a thinking, feeling, emotional human being. I have my sensitive issues, and because of this yes I can be hurt and I can be offended. I am not a stone, I am a person. But I know who I am, so do my doctors and the people who know me, and this for me is enough. If someone's prepared to challenge this without even bothering to get to know me well I'm sorry, but they're the idiot. Remember that people will always judge you within the limits of their own intelligence and the remarks they make about you say much more about them than they do about you. Don't quit.
