Not a good day for me to have been here today |
|
After 2 and a half years I didn't think I would need to take a break from the Lounge, but I guess I do. There have been too many sexist threads on here today. That is meaning to say attacks against both sexes and all sexual preferences. And there have also been a lot of "copycat" threads that are thinly veiled sexist attacks that weren't as hidden as were intended. I once thought that I might not be as progressive as a lot of people here, but today I realized I am OK. This isn't a "look at me, I'm leaving DU" thread, it's more of a "I am surprised at what I read here today" thread. Go ahead and flame away or whatever, I just have had a few tough weeks personally and today's lounge experience has been a little rough. I'll see y'all soon. Be good to each other please. :)

1. Sorry to hear that, my friend |
|
Business demands have kept me out of the wars and above the frey.
For what it's worth, I like nice women and nice men...and I really just can't stand assholes no matter their gender, color, religion, sexual preference.....etc

2. Geez, Lighten up, Dude |

The ladies of DU can take a joke and if it goes to far, they can take care of themselves.
The guys around here have been on the end of a few ribs too.
Give and take, baby!

nothing more progressive than being able to laugh at the absurd human condition (while still caring for the absurd humans), no matter what generalization that means you are laughing at.
