Well! Finally an answer from you .... sort of.

I had genuinely hoped we could have a serious discussion about what it was that prompted your posting. So I sent you two or three very civil replies, plus a civil email during the blackout period when this thread was temporarily pulled. And so did a number of others. None of us got a single response.

Finally when it dawned on me that you were only posting replies to people who were going negative on you, and totally ignoring all the others - who were doing nothing more than asking you to help them understand what it was on FR you didn't like, I decided to test my theory by gently "tweaking" you via a quote of yours from a previous thread where you complained about people who make generalizations about whole groups of people.

Sure enough, that finally got a response from you, an hour and a quarter after I first posted a query. Unfortunately your response doesn't address anything that I and others have been asking of you, and is disingenuous on many levels, not the least of which is that you accuse me of "ignoring the things I said...."! This! Coming after you ignored so many polite inquiries from me and others who were sincerely trying to understand what you were talking about. What chutzpah!

Now I'm mad! But not in the least bit at you! I'm mad at myself for letting you fool me into thinking you were someone interested in engaging in a real discussion. Others gave up on you and bailed long ago, obviously coming to the conclusion you weren't really serious. And I, like a complete idiot, hung in here hoping they were wrong. I can't believe I wasted my time so ... staying here and hitting refresh repeatedly. Argh!!

And who decided that a conservative woman can't have some "feminist" views? Are there some rules to be a conservative female I missed?

I never said that. You have me confused with a Freeper named StrawDog.

I'm outta here for the night. Over and out. What a waste.

Good closing post CardCarryingMember. It was a valiant try to be a good guy. Don't feel bad about it. She looks the fool , not you.
