So what does the word lesbo mean to you? Because from what I understand the word lesbo isn’t a word at all it’s a abbreviation of the word lesbian, and that’s what you are right? If the title of the thread would have been, “lesbians-post your pics here” would your response been a little diff.? not trying to be an idiot, jackass or a prick, and I don’t think guitarrocker did either. Now being called a lesbo and a carpet muncher are in two totally diff. things. I hope I didn’t offend anyone with the abbreviations that I used. An I do apologize for causing a little ruckus, I should have kept my comments to myself.
Lesbos - post your pics here

Shows what you know. I'm an continuously updating my data in order to reflect the most accurate and contemporary facts. If my statistics were different in the past that's because a different number of Litizens were posting drunk in that time period.
Stu,
I've seen you argue because a word ought to be treated as being offensive and now you're calling people idiots because they are treating a word as offensive. May I inquire as to what method you're using to determine if a word is offensive or not?

If the title had been "lesbians post your pics" I would have posted the same picture anyway. I don't see any need to post pictures of my love life for the sexual pleasure of men. That isn't a man hating thing, it is a fuck you thing.
The word Lesbo is a slur, as much as fag, faggot or dyke. When used by non-lesbians it is almost always derogatory and offensive. If you need a term for us, how about "lesbian" two extra letters won't kill you will they?

It's all lies anyhow; for such is the nature of statistics.

Exactly. It's not that had he used a more appropriate word people have responded much differently, it was an inappropriate request treated in an inappropriate manner. The term was derogatory, but that wasn't really the issue; the issue was that he asked that people treat their sexuality as a circus act for his amusement. The use of the term "lesbo" was just indicative of the general disrespect that he had. Likewise was the later use by diggem of man haters, though he apologised for the matter.

You're fucking kidding me, right? So in a community where "queer" and "dyke" are no longer considered offensive simply because some people say so with political motives, suddenly it's so damned unusual and confusing that I'd make a distinction betweeen an abbreviation and a slur?
I get why things like "homo" or "heeb" might be offensive, but why lesbos? Don't you use the term yourselves?

It's neither unusual nor confusing for you to offer an opinion that I disagree with and then get bent out of shape because I question it.
No, I'm not kidding. No, I don't use the term lesbo. In fact, in the real world, the only terms I use are gay, lesbian, and queer.

Who's bent out of shape? I am, just because I said "fuck" on a porn site? Gee, sensitive much?
If anyone is upset about this issue, it's Q. Speaking of, why do I have to explain myself but he doesn't?
Wow, how self-centered can you get. My question said "yourselves", pulural, refering to lesbians in general. Etoile answered that question though.

I don't think he can help it; he's always getting worked up. Lately, it seems he gets bent out of shape every time he posts on a thread. I suspect that he enjoys getting flustered

What are you pulling me into it for? I have no opinion on the propriety of "lesbos". I'm not a lesbian. If lesbians like "dyke" or "queer" but not "lesbos", that's up to them, not me. Or you.

If something is going to be attributed to me, it would be nice to know what I am supposed to have said.

I remember someone (I actually don't remember who) asking why he had to explain himself and not you. At least, I think it was you.
I tried to do a search to find the thread, but I couldn't remember enough of it to figure it out. It was something along the lines of this "discussion" though.
I don't exactly remember what the discussion at that time was about, but I remember that line.
