I know a woman with "issues" when I see one...Her attitude and words toward you were over the top..She is not worth your time or your attention...

There will be corrections fom time to time in our freedoms of expression...There was a time when married couples on film had to be depicted as each sleeping in a twin bed in movies....

They went too far in censorship...now its anything goes..and people clamor for censorship again...We won't go back to twin beds for married couples!

I have a very fast remote clicker...if I don't like it ,I change channels.

Ahhhhhh, the woman with issues type!

I encountered one of those at a writer's group I used to attend. I read an essay that I'd written about the day my husband died to the group. In it, I mention something about "years later when I found a lump on my left breast, my first thought was 'thank God it's not our favorite one.'" (The lump was benign, btw.) ...

Anyhow, the essay had me in tears just from going through the emotional thing of sharing it with others by reading it aloud. Others in the room were in tears, too. Then one lady went off on a tangent about my "nerve" because I'd used the word "breast" in the essay; she told me I showed very poor taste reading such "filth" out loud. (My thought at the time was: We were married! We were allowed to talk about 'em and/or look at 'em!) ... A young priest who was a part of the group interrupted her rant to tell me that he thought the essay was "a beautiful, heartfelt tribute" and he thanked me for sharing it with the group. (Even though I knew that she was the one who'd been out of line, later when I was alone I still cried over what that lady had said.)
