Although I didn't identify anyone specifically posting to this thread, my position stands. My first hand experience in real life with the many people I've met, supports it and qualifies my broad-stroke 'keyboard' representation.

I find that I agree with a lot of what you say but that line there I don't..
I once heard someone say they prefer clarity over agreement. I respect that your first hand experience differs from mine; I appreciate that you don't agree with me. I trust I've been clear.
Then again, sometimes when you think you are clear....
Seems like some people have been trying this shoe on to see if it fits.
Read it again. There was nothing pointing to anyone being or accused of being a "fake". I said that many, I would say all but of the many people I've met I'm sure at least one or two did not alter their perspective, people with only had 'on-line' to draw upon change their attitude regarding labels and absolute definitions once they step out from behind the keyboard.
My opinion comes from direct first hand experiences - yours may differ and I was not trying to convince anyone otherwise; ergo the "clarity over agreement" comment.
As far as personal representation; every time it's asked, I point out that beth is really a made up character and in reality is the alter ego of my life mate; a 380 pounds, bald, male. Both of us living in my parents basement in the Vailsburg section of Newark. Anyone who has met us in person will validate that representation.
BTW - for the semantically inclined, would 'fake' rank above or below 'doormat' on the insult scale? I'm starting a 'one-true-definition' for on-line BDSM message boards. I already have bob (whoops I mean beth) doing the research.
I guess maybe I read a little of that New York Smart arse in some of that :> I've gotya now.
