Especially in a forum like this, where the object is to meet people, it IS
especially heinous to be delibrately misrepresented by any one in any way.
This group won't work very well if this kind of crap continues ...

And like it or not, accusing someone of being a homosexual is a character
assassination in this society.  Most people who post a lot to alt.p want to 
present themselves in the best way possible, and for straight people, being
labelled as gay is totally antagonistic to that.

If someone had hijacked my account and posted that I was gay I probably would 
not have reacted much differently.

P.S.  Proving that one is heterosexual does not take place in the courtroom.
      (Unless you're a lawyer in heat).

I have lurked in the darkness until the bile and attention getting posts
have arisen to the flood point.  It would seem to me that those who take
it upon theirselves to be moderators of any group, such as Kristen, are
going back to the point that we should take away their keyboards and give
them a "CB RADIO".  This gets really tiresome watching you pick people
apart.  This newsgroup has been reduced to a playground and if you will
think about it you will have to admit it to yourself.  Now if you are
juvenile enough to think that a "FLAME" will impress anyone or will raise
your own flagging self-esteem, take a shot.

Do these "shy on the inside" flirtatious women do this, in the hope a man
might show interest and initiate contact?  Have we not yet progressed to
the stage where women are able to initiate relationships in a more active
role?  I see flirting as a passive role.

fasinated by two women goin' at it, but the thought of two guys turns your
stomach. I mean, I know alot of it is societal, (Penthouse and most porn films
include scenes of women together all the time), but I still question how this
came about.
    I am a bisexual female, have been for as far back as I can remember. I love

Interesting time, October.  Barely a week into the month, and already
three couples I know who have been together for significant amounts of
time have broken up.  My boss broke up with his girlfriend of at least
two years, and my friends Karen and Victoria both broke up with their
boyfriends, one of three years, on of one.   All on the same weekend!
It is depressing, the amount of time I've spent talking about the
breakups with those involved (no I wasn't being nosy, the conversations
were started by the injured ("dumped?") parties).  My theory is that
people expect relationships to improve during the summer, and when they
don't, and October rolls around, they decide it's no longer worth the
effort.  Part of it may be the tendency to use the beginning of Fall
as a milestone, and being depressed at findong oneself in the same
position October after October.  Several of my friend back in high school
became severely depressed each Fall, and all the people I know who
attempted suicide (and the three who succeeded) all did it in late
September to October.  Pretty spooky, wondering who I'll hear about next,
and just how bad it will be.
   Actually, it is this time of year that makes me glad to be unattached.
I don't need to worry about being dumped, eh?  I'd welcome input
as to what time of year hold the most breakups.  (On a related subject,
I remember someone telling me when the most births occurred, and
being rather surprised at the implications for conceptions, but I
don't remember whether most conceptions occur in December or July.  I
think it was one of those.  Anyone know?  The seasonal aspects of moods
and relationships get less attention than I think they deserve.)

Hmmm...  This article is fascinating.  It seems to be a protest against
"bile and attention getting posts", but the writer then proceeds to vent
his own spleen, making antagonistic comments such as accusing Tyger of
trying to moderate the group, taking away prople's keyboards and replacing
them with CB radios, and to top it off, inviting flames from people who
don't agree with him!

Sir, if you're tired of the bile, why did you make statements likely to
provoke people to anger, and even *invite* them to flame you?  How will
your article stop the bile and flaming when all it seems to do is add
more bile and upset to the newsgroups?  The only thing I see accomplished
is that *you* had a chance to throw some punches around also.  Aren't you
doing the very thing you want the others to *stop* doing?

Surely you've seen the articles posted within the last couple of days,
where some misunderstandings have been cleared up and things are calming
down?  Or did you forget to READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE END OF THE
NEWSGROUP so you don't make the mistake of carrying on an argument that's
already been resolved?

Wouldn't your stated purpose be better served by posting an article with
statements designed to *calm down* the upset feelings and positive suggestions
for returning the group back to an even keel?
