ORIGINAL: subtee Hi blushes; I don't think her post had a question in it, other than "huh?" I agree everyone is entitled to tell her their opinion, she was merely asking that folks think about exactly what happened next: (to paraphrase), "you're not welcome here," "take it somewhere else," etc. It's not appealing for many--it's, in fact, quite objectionable to many, obviously. And this is what perplexes me. Everyone's feelings are right and true and valid. So, if one feels that baby talk is objectionable, or even not appealing, why come to tell her to go away? Even more alarming to me is the sentiment that she's pushing her kink on folks unwilling to engage in it. Firstly, (with this OP at least, I didn't see the other), she didn't do that; she intentionally refrained from talking in baby talk, recognizing that it would offend some. Secondly, the boards are full of discussions about personal kinks and we don't all embrace all of them. I'm not naive enough to believe this could actually happen, but what a happy place this could be if she could post her interest and other like-minded folks could reply and engage so that she could feel--at least here--like her "real self." It is the reason I enjoy being on CM and interacting with folks who live in the same or similar way that I do. Was she really told to go away or was she merely mocked as many before her and her filters interpreted the responses in the way she describes. We'll really never know now as the thread is gone, but she asked why she didn't have the right and most told her to do whatever she pleased only to expect consequenses that she may not desire.
