To all, particularily Wendy,
FOR CHRIST'S SAKE - I WAS NOT INSINUATING YOU HAD DONE ANYTHING WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't need anyone to apologize for me - I hadn't even found the offensive posts yet. If you take the time to notice - I asked where it was! How in the heck was I supposed to know about the breast milk crack, WENDY! if I hadn't even read the post that I asked specifically where it was!!!!!!!
Then I come on and hear a woman, the mother of a RAPE victim basically condemn me for being pretty, and in no subtle terms say I was asking for it!
Btw, I was on icq with Seven at the exact time I was posting this comment. I asked her to read it - and I would have modified it if she didn't understand what I was trying to say. She understood. I'm absolutely sorry that my comment was not clear on what I was trying to say. It was not my intention to condemn you for being pretty, as you seem quite obvious of that fact. Rather like that old hair commercial with the woman saying "Don't hate me because I have beautiful hair."
It's about reality. If you want to put your pretty picture - fine. It's great for the persons here, but there are strangers (a fine example would be the ass who used maxee's password- I have now read the posts) who zero in on pictures, particularily women. I just hope the pretty women are well adjusted, don't mind gross insults, and always have men who are valiant nearby. If that is so - the world is, indeed, a fine place.
I believe that Simon has a pic up and he made a comment BEFORE Seven on the joke thread. Why did no attack come onto him? Because he is not female, and the female jealousy thing didn't come into play. I thought of this when it happened. I feel Patricia acted on jealousy. And you? What are you attacking me for? Tooooooo many years in the org? I am very sorry, but I am sooo deeply hurt by your comments tonight.
Back off. I was not attacking you. I'm sorry if it came across that way. Yes, many years in the org - longer than you've been alive. More years being just as pretty as you, btw, and being hit upon by elders, ms, 30 friggin' years of working in the next bay with mechanics, selling to car salesmen - and doing so on the ability of my words and intelligence and humor - and never once on my back.
And I did wear good clothes, leather blazers, etc, when selling. But I knew what the men were thinking a lot of the time - the idiots would tell me. Sometimes the deal was across the desk or no deal. I walked.
You of ALL people should know better!!
Yes, I do know. I feel a bit confident with the idea that people we do not know read our words. They identify with our pictures. We are allowing strangers to know us, our personalities, our thoughts, hopes, desires, sorrows, pain, sexual activities, husbands, children, some of us -even our real names. And then we put a picture to the package! Some strangers are jacking off because that's the extent of their life. I know that world - it was the world of my father. For you information, I never wear clothes with any letters on them - it's a phobia leftover - don't want anybody to read me or look at me too long.
And, btw, at your age - I was better looking than you and had three kids tagging, my own business and divorced. I'm not jealous of your prettiness, just see the true possibility of very ugly persons watching.
Again, it was absolutely not my intention to offend the pretty women here. I apologize to the pretty women.
