How many of us are JUST crossdressers?

[Sara Jessica]

[SIZE="2"]So you support attacks on me? [/SIZE]

Of course not, you know that's not true.

[The people on my ignore list are there because they insist on taking my writing apart, sentence by sentence, inserting critical comments, and not offering one word in the way of original thought (for discussion). I don’t WANT to ignore them, but...well...are you familiar with the word “bully?” It troubles ME that the ones causing me to act so drastically are the last ones to be aware of THEIR injurious words, or to display a conscience by way of apology or regret…

Well I read said post completely and found it to be rather gentle, especially given the history there. I also found it to be full of the original thoughts you claim to be lacking. Just because opinions are not marching lock-step with your premise doesn't render them invalid. Remember, "just a crossdresser" is a rather provocative statement whether one wants to be associated as such or not. It seems that statements made to a contrary are dismissed way too easily.

Contrary opinions are not necessarily personal attacks but regardless, whether a person can be aware that their words are injurious in some way, shape or form, how can they know how you feel if you refuse to read those words, let alone acknowledge them whether in the open forum or via PM? It's like that driver who cuts us off in traffic and then flips the bird when we honk, they go about their business completely oblivious to the fact that they were the party in the wrong. I'm sure we have all wished we could tell that driver the error of their ways. So if you feel that someone's post is "injuring" you, then isn't it a better tactic to respond rather than ignore?

I don't know, it feels like I'm beating my head against a wall for no reason.
