I do love the hating; it is absolutely fascinating. More concerning, it seems a good number of people are unaware that astrology is a pseudoscience incompatible with intellectual discourse. Sadly, I suspect there are numerous people on here who think creationism is also compatible with intellectual discourse. This was great fun. By the way IrishLass, who is hanging out with supermodels who are on collarme (that was really funny), I would say any man who demands pornographic photos thirty seconds after communicating is not serious about finding a woman in this lifestyle, but is looking for a cheap thrill. Alas snarkiness is a poor substitute for seriousness.

Well, I hate to get caught in the line of fire, but why has this thread taken such a personal turn? Just because someone posts something that ”you already know" does not mean that it should be construed as a personal attack. He is entitled to his opinion, although some of his later posts indicate that he is trying to be provocative. And it is working.

OK, let's put this in some other context then to clear it up. Let's assume that I am attending a conference on particle physics. Attending the conference are a ton of Nobel laureates, published PHD's, and generally "big brains". Now, I'm not one such. I just got in because my wife is attending. At the lunch break, I walk up to a group of people discussing some arcane topic and start to pontificate on F=ma.

Now, don't you think that pretty much everyone else in the room is going to be thinking I"m an asshat? We don't think it's a personal attack. We think it's stupid and pretentious.

Okay all, I am done and it was great fun. The list was, of course, meant both humorously and seriously. The things I mentioned are very real warnings and I understand why fakes would not want them out there, but it was submitted in good humor and I expected to generate few comments as some of them are obvious. I am admittedly surprised that things that are so obvious generated a great amount of disagreement, but it is interesting in itself to see a post be savaged for being both very obvious and very wrong. It is perhaps a comment on the sad state of our culture that the desire to tear down is so strong and that so many people use what could be a useful forum and meeting place for people into what is certainly a minority lifestyle into a site mostly of scammers, pornographers and fakes. It would seem that those seriously into our way of living should be the most concerned with these issues.
Good luck to all in finding happiness.
