You guys are just so cute.

My opinion on women is well known and if you don't know it, that isn't my problem.  One of the reasons I despise Gor is it celebrates weakness in both men and women.

As for you Focus, you KNOW my old name, don't you?  Why?  Because I was open about why I changed it and OWN the fact that it was a name I used long ago.  Now, sit down and put that thinking cap on and read what I wrote, I said I didn't HAVE to change my name, I didn't HAVE anything to hide, I didn't change it to HIDE from something which was what I was accusing the woman of.   The reason I changed it was because I was trying to not be so sarcastic and the whole name was a snark on the names people choose.


Lol, I think angel's definitely on to something - your overblown ego sure looks like an over-compensation.

And I'm somewhat disappointed you've had to resort to semantics to preserve that integrity you spoke of. True, I didn't leave you a lot of options; but still....

The fact is you have changed your name - for whatever reasons! Now that'd normally be perfectly acceptable *IF* you hadn't mouthed off like a petulent brat and cast dispersions on zephyr in (apparently) changing hers. What, your integrity is preserved because of your reasons for changing yet you don't once consider zephyr (or anyone else) could equally have vallid reasons for changing theirs? Is it really all about YOU? And yes, she *is* a woman - you know, of the gender that gets harrassed by Net dorks and geeks 24/7. Every sub I've known personally gets fed up with it and has started over with the odd defensive fib to preserve their own sanity. And I'm fine with that - it has zilch to do with "integrity" and everything to do with keeping the wanking wolves from the door....

And yanno Simply, you may not have changed to hide, but ole Crappydom had his r/l portrait pinned to every post. I guess we'll just hafta keep taking your word over your actions, ay? *wink*

Focus.
