You must have been flipping through this thread and perhaps you were
into the "Cheers". The reason why nobody noticed that "Ms.Amero" (you 
must mean me, Barbara) used the word "frigging" is because she did NOT
use the word "frigging". Perhaps the reason why you disagree with
virtually every single thing you have ever taken the time to read in my
posts is that you're reading somebody elses fucking posts and not mine.
And no I have not taken to heart the idea that young people might be
reading my posts. If by young people you mean children, I doubt children
are reading these newsgroups. There's far more interesting places that
children hang out on the 'net. And obviously you've not passed by a
school ground lately. When I was a "young people", a child, I and
my friends used words I see in here - frigging, fuck off, piss off,
asshole. Are you saying you didn't? If by young people you mean people
older than children, well I hang out with young people and they use the
same language I do. And what language of mine needs to be softened up?
I've used the words fuck and shit a couple of times. I don't think that
I've called anyone an asshole for a long time. Other than that what are
you complaining about? Gawdhepus, Honestagawd? Would somebody please tell
me what my language is that has to be softened?? Give me some examples
of *my* language. I make posts objecting to the language *men* use IRT 
women and I am attacked for that, not the *men* who used the language.
It is the men in here calling women bitches, cunts, telling posters to
piss off, to fuck off, calling men pricks, etc. Have you told the men to
soften their language????? Just recently a man posted to me FUCK OFF AND
DIE and used the words JESUS CHRIST. I don't use the words Jesus or Christ
to swear at posters. Michelle just used the word Jesus. Are you gonna tell
her to soften up her language??

Perhaps you ought to step back and ask yourself why you have not 
noticed that it is the *men* in here using the language that posters 
are complaining about.
