Ok... Angel's turn
[:D]

I have seen posts on tollerence and intollerence, and the tollerant are weak, the intollerent, just bolshy know it alls.

I enjoy visiting this forum... why? Because I can, because I can add my views(with or without disclaimers), because on on the whole, I have never had a problem about the way this site is moderated. I think the Mods do a great job. And no, I am not a suck up, neither am I a Mod myself, nor do I know any personally... just so your aware. I will just say things as I see it.

If I don't agree with what a post says, then I will place over my point of view. Not to condescend it or the poster, not to chase them away for their thoughts. But because I have a voice and can use it.

If I see a flame and I believe that the flame was wrong, I have as much right as the flamer, to post that I see differently.

If I make a statement about my beliefs, and someone dislikes or takes offense to my opinion and flames me, or makes a reply, then I welcome it. Doesn't make their view right for me... but I learn more about that person because of it. They have learnt about me too, even if they would not realise it.

Do I become affected because someone would label me? Well, everytime, yes. Everything we say or do, effects people. To think it doesn't would be naive.

Power. Whether we like it or not people how power over everyone. How I talk/type/write has power over even the Dominants here(shock horror)... We can accept that this power exists, or deny it can effect us. I would never deny that it cannot effect me. What I can and do accept is that I don't have to submit to it.

I could bathe in the power that I have. I could nausiatingly(is that a word?) glide through my life, knowing what is right, morally, what is good... or bad,bad,bad. But whats the point? I could take that moral high ground, but It would bring nothing but pain.

Cheating. Morally wrong? Depends upon who and what you are. Depends on the situation. Depends upon the cheat involved.

Hate. Morally wrong? Depends on who your hating, surely? I mean... don't we have a right to hate a man who kills thousands? Or that woman who just killed an unborn child? Or that teenager who just kicked in the head of that old man who lives down the street from us? What makes our 'hate'... so much more moral?

Pain... OMGosh... how could anyone like someone who finds satisfaction in causing someone pain? Their partner likes it? Urgh... how disgusting... must be a bit mental if you ask me...

Poly relationships? Why? Isn't one person enough? God, I mean... isn't it a bit egotistical for someone to want more than one lover/wife/slave/sub.......?

He wears ladies clothes? FREAKY! Why can't he just accept what he is?

Dominant? What makes Him so high and mighty?

Submissive? Fucking Doormat.

Slave? Nawwwww.... in this day an age, it don't exist. Anyone with a slave, must be an abuser.

Commited suicide? Selfish tosser. What about the family they have left behind? The children? The wife?

In a BDSM relationship and have children??? God those kids must be in danger....

Gay and want a baby? How can two men bring up a child? Child needs a mother... or does it? Doesn't a child need a loving, stable relationship more?

See Angels point? It's all around. You can agree and disagree. But its personal choice. BDSM isn't safe.... it isnt sane... but neither is life.

But unlike life, it is consensual. But life has a horrible way of getting into our safe little 'Lifestyle' doesn't it?

Wonderful Post Angel,
You're always so gracious, and even when you disagree you do it so well.

This is a great post and needed almost to try to get people back to center, because there seems to be a lot of anger happening of recent on the boards.

I hope to continue to read and learn from your posts and your composure, as I always respect/admire your words even if I don't always agree. M

Angel sis,

this is why you are so endearing to everyone.

You're a walking example of grace and acceptance.

stormi only wishes she had half the patience and softness that you
seem to exhibit. Softness is something that stormi desires so and yet
eludes her completely.


Stay the way you are.....

Can I request more informative topic titles please? Just ellipses doesn't help much.




darkinshadows -> RE: ... (3/14/2005 7:55:55 AM)

Ellipse N.Pl.

The omission of a word or phrase necessary for a complete syntactical construction but not necessary for understanding.

Sweet Emerald. One can always look beyond the shadows to see the darkness and the light...[;)]

Peace and Love

But you didn't omit "a word or phrase for a complete syntactical construction" because there IS no syntactical construction, there's just ellipses. Ellipses don't tell you anything without context to put them in. They are like a "0" or an "x" in a mathematical formula, a placeholder. They mean nothing on their own.

And the lack of word did not keep you from checking out what was going on with this post. I think it was very poetic, and I couldn't have said it better myself. BB Angel

Yes, you certainly can request such a thing.

But, to parahrase one of my favorite quotes from The Simpsons, Rednecks can request to be called Sons of the Soil, but it ain't gonna happen.
