Thanks for making GLBT Chatter a great place to talk?

[ellediablo]

Yeah, actually, it matters quite a bit what kind of a woman you are. I'm gay, you're not. Yet you persist in condescendingly lecturing me about how you believe I, as a gay person, should feel. And while breast beating about oppression,no less! The irony is astounding. If you are concerned about gays being oppressed, you might want to try changing your own plantation mentality towards us. We are not children, we do not need you to watch over us and tell us that you know more about the reality of being gay than we do ourselves.

I do believe that your heart is in the right place. I think you feel genuine sympathy towards the GLBT community. But that doesn't give you the right to decide for us whether or not we feel oppressed in a given situation. We are adults (and I am an adult who is not suffering from any self esteem problems, despite your insinuations) and we have a very good perception of the world around us. Believe it or not, we actually know a bit more than you do about what it's like to be queer.

Go ride to someone else's rescue.

I am a woman, Queersetti, not a Rough Rider, Texas Ranger, Navy Seal, State Trooper, Green Beret, a Mountie, etc..nor am I a hotshot woman with an attitude. I do not ride to anyone's rescue. I am not strong enough for that - sometimes I need somebody to watch over me and rescue me. But that is not the issue here...

Sorry for being presumptuous.

I have people in my real life, as well as my cyberlife, from the GLBT community. I may not be a lesbian or bisexual but...family members and friends have opened their world to me and well...I have seen people accepted...and people tossed from families and friendships like an old doll or a broken toy. But-

I will respect your feelings...it is your right.


Have a nice Monday.

As I said, I don't doubt the sincerity of your concern.

the only way you can be opressed here on Lit is if you let it happen to you........... this is a place of fun and entertainment..... there's no binding agreement to keep anyone here...... if it's not fun for you, it's easy just to leave. =^)

I'm insulted that you believe women can't "ride" to anyones rescue.

I think you need to try to stop stereotyping to such an extent - about women, about gays, about everyone.

Thank you very much, you all...
For your time and input to this topic. It is much appreciated that you would look upon a lowly peon of a member, such as myself, and grant me the pleasure of your most memorable words. I feel very privilged to break - bread - in a sense, with the elite of literotica. oy! I should name me...Lucky.


Have a nice day.
Until we meet or speak again...

Happy Trails!
smooches

Darlin'.. there is no "elite of literotica" even though others may think they are or other's perceive them to be....... I certainly don't think anyone has a higher standing in this place than anyone else...

what people love to do in here is break posts down... take it personally and try to get at the essence of the words posted... when it's really hard to do in a context just based on text......

20 people can read a book and all have different interpretations....

My point is to just have fun and not let any of this get to you.....

I would laugh at anyone who felt they were opressed here on the GLBT board or anywhere else on Lit.......... the only way they should feel that way is if they let themselves feel that way...

Don't let anyone's opinion EVER make yours feel inferior......
please don't do what many do on here and take it so personally.....

*hugs*

Like freedom of speech no less

even assuming a private board is subject to any more "freedom of speech" than its owners are willing to provide, speech is always subject to reasonable time, place and manner restrictions. for example, you can't lead a protest march through the middle of supreme court when it's in session.

i don't see anyone stating that lit does not provide a place to post any legal content; all i see is objection to reasonable place restrictions. the free speech banner doesn't fit, then. this seems to me to be a bit like arguing that the dewey decimal system is oppressive.
