IMO making me cringe my face off by causing a huge drama and then playing the victim is a turn off and joking about genital mutilation being okay if you like the look of it kind of ruins the sexy altogether to say the least. It's repugnant. Icky personality can ruin looks. Hard to find how someone looks hot when you associate it with who they are.
As I explained on my last post to the circumcision thread before leaving: my intention was honestly not to cause drama, and I apologized for having made light of a subject that I then saw was something so many of you had such strong feelings about. I had not encountered that type of response before in regards to circumcision, but then again, I had never had the need to discuss it before I was expecting my first child. Whether you believe me or not and choose to hold it against me is up to you. I'm sorry for having, as you call it, "played the victim". I felt hurt and caught off guard by a few people and reacted accordingly. I was not doing so well at that time and I admit it was an over reaction on my part.
I consider/considered you a friend on here, so I hope your above post doesn't mean this has changed.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
