i got so mad. i rarely get mad. regardless of what people say or think across computer land. [View all]

and generally when i get mad, it has more to do with substance. inadequacies or unfairness on du as a whole, rather than with individuals and differing opinions. again, regardless of what people project my way. they are wrong. i am right. cause i am doing me.... not these people across computer land. which ironically, exactly brings me to my point.

(well, that felt good. laughing about the mad, makes me unmad. so if no one reads this post, it has already worked for me.)

i read a post. from a longtimer. there have been enough discussions and he has expressed his views enough, for me to know his position. actually. for everyone to know his position. this is not a call out. not gonna put links or names. that does not matter. it is the words, that were used, that i am addressing. i want to be really really clear on my position. so much so, i am starting an OP in hof so we can discuss our personal clear lines/boundaries. this is one of them. actually, this might be my number one, first line.

i could not even read the rest of the post. why? cause he stepped over my very first line so no need to go any further.

but.... i want to put the words out there. i want to know if these words hit anyone, in the forceful manner they did with me. i almost FELT the forceful energy, thru the screen, per these words.

such a reaction.



Your posts are the evidence on your expertise on call outs, insults, harassment, and talking crap.

I don't have a problem with "uppity woman". In fact I encourage them... If they have a real case. You don't.


what set me off immediately was the "encourage" those uppity women. the first part of the comment matters little. we hear these accusations and insults all the time. meh. but, ... this man "encourages". and i feel so privileged. so allowed.

then i got to the part about a "real" case. kinda like "real" rape. "real" victim. real real real. those lyin' women we see so much of. biological, innately who a woman is. you know. graysons wife BEFORE the video. so many of our rape victims. the little lolita in montana, 13 yr old raped by a 40 something yr old man. he couldnt help it. she led him to her evil way, like eve..... lol, it just goes on and on and on. (the 13 yr old killed herself. meh...)

this was my reply. took all of about 5 seconds or less to type out. i felt this so very very strongly.


you "encourage uppity women" as long as YOU decide they have a "valid case". you know what....?

fuck that shit, i say as a woman. you do not tell me whether i have a valid case. you do not tell me i am uppity cause i say fuck that shit, a man does not tell me if i have a valid case.

that simple. there is no need for me to read another single word in your post. the very beginning. NO

now. i addressed your post. YOUR demand, as a man, of ME, a woman about MY issues, not yours.

RIGHT THERE

NO!!!!

was i clear enough? any questions? do i need to clarify? i do not want you to have to ponder. no need. it is not yours. it is mine. i will do it as i see i need to do it. i will not do ME as YOU see i should do me.

there is no insult. there is no name calling. there is no UPPITY.... for christ sake. this is simply a woman saying NO to you.



so. please. tell me. lol. how did it hit you. i may sit and think about this one..... all day long. as i turn up my music and enjoy this beautiful spring day, breeze thru the windows. candles kicking up scents. birds a chirpin'

i would like to reiterate and make really really clear. i do not care one iota about the poster. this is no way a call out. i copied and pasted words. that is what i want to experience.







this OP so needed a picture. lol. ah ha
