[split] PORN

[Pippy]

Hey,

It is part of natural human development to touch yourself, especially as a child when you're discovering your body and what feels good.

It is also part of development to shit yourself, but we are expected to learn to act a little more mature than that. Are you still a child discovering your body eilo? Again this could not be a more fallacious explanation of why masturbation is harmless and good. Thank you for sharing though.

Why is it best not getting into? Have you got some kind of notion that being transgender is "bad" for you as well?

Because I would rather not discuss my identity issues with such a rude and immature crowd. I think identity disorder is "bad for you", yes. But it does not carry fault, it is not my or SAE's fault. We did nothing wrong, but I suppose it is difficult and dangerous, so it is kind of "bad". It certainly is unpleasant.

What I think pisses people off Pippy, is that you come into these threads and act like you have a PhD is whateverthefuckwearetalkingaboutology from the university of Ijustmadeallmyfactsup (I think it's in Russia).

I am not trying to sound like I have a PhD, but only trying to share my opinion like everyone in the conversation who came before me. If I come across as full-of-myself, than I apologize and will try harder in the future.

You say you "feel deeply obliged" to inform us that pornography, of which I suspect you know little about as it is (you certainly don't know anything about video games or tv...or 9/11 for that matter), is bad for us. You do this with a tone that comes across as condescending at best.

The 'deeply obliged' thing was misunderstood. I don't mean that I have information that is perfect, and I feel the need to inform you of the right way. I meant that I am very tired of being 'the crazy guy that disagrees with everything' (you even made up an insulting award for me to win), but for porn I feel moved to add my opinion, knowing you guys will not like it. I actually know a lot about porn, unfortunately. When I was a junkie I had a very unhealthy relationship with porn. Very unhealthy. But I got over it, and have spent a lot of time chatting with porn addicts, learning about that paradigm. I also volunteer with survivors of incest abuse, that is a dark world. I feel that I also know a lot about TV and 9/11 and video games, but certainly not more than yourself (I wouldn't want to offend).

If I am sounding condescending to you, I apologize and will try harder in the future. Please bear in mind that I was responding to your charming 'who the fuck cares what you think' post.

I also have and will never go to a strip club. It would make me very uncomfortable. Is that lording over you all, or just disseminating my opinion?

I used to use the 'i think' disclaimer, but got just as much flak so cut it out in interests of time. I also used to end every post with 'this is just what I think, and I may well be wrong', remember? I could go back to that if it makes you feel better. Everything I say (everything) is prefaced by "i think" and suffixed by "but I might be wrong". If it will make you feel less disrespected I will go back to writing it out every sentence.

Repeated exposure to the sun can burn my skin really badly.

That is like 'video games are water' thing. I am king of terrible similes and analogies, and feel this one is pretty high up there. The sun is necessary and external to human society. Porn is unnecessary and internal. Please don't compare the two as some kind of valid metaphor.
*This is just what I think, and we all know what you think of me. I may well be wrong. Thank you for taking your valuable time to read this paragraph*

Thank you for allowing me to try to clear this up. I know I can be scathing, and also a little scatter-brained. I am only giving salt for salt though, i n my opinion. If you are curt or disrespectful towards me, than I snap back. But I really do respect your guys take on things, and appreciate you existence.

Thank you for listening.
