ORIGINAL: MmeGigs Why do you feel the need to press your beliefs about this on others? You have to be joking here. I refuse to believe that you think that stating a negative opinion about something and asking questions means that someone is pressing their beliefs upon others. Seriously now, come on. I wasn't joking. Look at your original post. You're not just saying you don't like this kink and asking folks who are into it what the deal is, you're saying there's something wrong with these folks. You're inviting folks who agree with you to share their theories and asking those who disagree with you whether they're just deluding themselves. To me, that didn't look anything like stating an opinion and asking questions. quote:

ORIGINAL: MmeGigs Why are you so sure that you've got his all figured out when it's something that you're obviously not into and don't understand? Ok another thing I refuse to believe that you actually went there and proceeded to tell me flat out that I "obviously do not understand". As if you know me at all or anything about what I know or don't know. I meant that, too. You've made it abundantly clear what you think about this kink. It's very clear that you don't understand why anyone would be into it, and pretty obvious that you've made up your mind about it and aren't willing to listen. These idiots who fill up the inboxes of dominant women with "How can i serve You, Mistress??" crapola are not representative of folks with a supremacy kink - they're representative of horny internet dickheads. The misogynistic jackasses and feminazis (not to be confused with feminists) who annoy those who have to put up with them with their theories and prejudices are also not representative of folks with a supremacy kink. There are a whole lot of people for whom the supremacy thing is part of their kink. The Gor folks, for example - that's a rather male-supremacist kink. Femsupremacy is also a very popular kink. There are certainly some of them who aren't coming from the healthiest place with it, but the same could be said of any kink. For the most part these folks do what they do in a safe, sane and consensual way and just want to be left alone to do it, same as the rest of us. In the same way that someone with a bondage fetish doesn't go around tying up random strangers, folks with a supremacy kink do not expect random strangers to participate in their kink with them. Supremacy isn't a kink I share. I don't know how someone who is into this processes it, and neither does anyone else who doesn't share this kink. I can get an inkling by talking to them about it and maybe trying to relate their feelings about it to something that does fit in my head, but if I start that conversation by telling them that I think they're weak and pathetic, I'm guessing that they aren't really going to open up to me. quote:
It is one thing to question someone about their beliefs; it is something else entirely to slam them on a personal level. I agree with you. I found your original post incredibly offensive because of the way you were slamming people on a personal level. You weren't asking questions about their beliefs, you were belittling and insulting them. According to you, their beliefs are pathetic. They're weak and insecure. They must be doing it to prop up a shaky ego or avoid taking responsibility for themselves. And you could go on and on. After you've put all of this really insulting and nasty stuff out there, you're feeling that I've slammed you by saying that you don't know what you're talking about. I wasn't nasty to you, I was just bluntly stating my opinion, and in much kinder terms than you used. If you can't handle that, I think that you need to take a look at what you're putting out there. If you're going to be blunt and aggressive, people will be blunt and aggressive with you.
