WRONG! Alt.Personals.ads is for ads. Alt.Personals, I believe is for
discussion on various topics about personal things and expriences, as is
alt.personals.misc...

For starters, when you post such stuff as you did, you have to expect to be
able to handle a bit of flaming, as when you post _anything_ to the usenet.
Everyone has a right to speak their mind, (as you did in what sort of
girl/woman you wanted) What you want in a woman is your own choice, you
can't let other people affect what you want. you have to learn to just
handle the flaming, its part of life on here! :)

Now, that is being immature, you say that everyone deserves their own right
to speech.. well.. when people are flaming you, that is exactly what they
are doing.

Congratulations to you, Great to hear. See... speaking your mind doesn't
hurt, just sometimes causes a bit of flaming... learn to handle that..
people are just speaking their mind...

Well there you go eh? Just don't worry about flaming, just laugh at it.. in
the end it all works out. And don't forget.... smile! :)
