Hey, I hadn't finished what I wanted to say!
What is this division between the mods and us you are trying to create?
This matter is not resolved. I wish to continue with a discussion on this issue.
However,
I accept your rules. I wont use the C word. I don't agree with your reasons, but I will refrain from using the word in future.
I would like to know why this word is so universally offensive to women. It is just a word. I use all words as creatively as i can. I always try to give words subtely diferent meanings within the contxt of my prose. I don't hate women, I like them. I even have some respect for them. I have a deeper understanding of feminist principles than most women I know.
As someone who has generally been treated like shit by women throughout his entire life, and as someone who suffered psychological bullying from a female teacher at the age of 6, you are seriously expecting me to refrain from using the C word in case I offend a random women I have never met on the internet?
Of course, I will. But my previous comments with the C word were not beligerent, nor did they carry any disrespect from me to my earth sisters.
Yours, with respect and assertion but NO aggression :hippy:
