I was wondering if anyone else would notice that.
I would not expect anyone else to notice my concern for how my behavior in my own posts, might be perceived by others.
quote:
That's not what I was talking about.
I'm referring to the way people so easily stigmatized Alice's sexual identity simply because they do not like her.
So many prejudiced people just waiting for an excuse to flaunt their prejudice.
No self-control whatsoever.
My concern, regarding my choice of rebuttal, was that any jokes about Wendy's sexual idenity that I make, reflects inaccurately my personal world views on this particular topic.
You targetted what you believed to be Alice's most vulnerable spot and attacked, the same as your associates.
You attempted to undermine her self-esteem by attacking her sexual identity, just like the others.
This does reflect your "personal world view".
It is no different than the tactics tried on me.
Alice said this kind of behaviour makes her angry, and I can understand that.
With me, well, I don't get angry. How immature would one have to be to get angry with a bunch of children throwing tantrums?
I understand. You feel insecure, and so you strike out at the most vulnerable point you can think of.
You've all been doing that, and around and around it goes and you get no where.
And you wonder why.
I can't be manipulated through the immature tactics of attacking my self-esteem or trying to undermine any potential I might have to interact as adults with anyone on this site. You and your friends betray yourselves by using such tactics openly and repeatedly, to the tune of 500+ posts to this thread.
It's up to you, of course, but you may want to take another look at how your behaviour and that of your friends represents those who advocate tolerance for the casual paradigm.
