ETA: At the troll - not at you.

[trixtah]

HONESTLY.

[ironed_orchid]

Wow. On a post from 2005, no less.

[trixtah]

Yeah, I wonder what the google search term was? "those traitor bitches?" "lesbians who are really bisexual?"

[ironed_orchid]

I think everything could have been les offensive if she'd stuck to individual examples, but people always gotta go for the gross generalization.

[trixtah]

Meh, I'd find it just as offensive if someone tried to define my identity for me based on a few examples of other people failing to define themselves as someone else has decided they should.

Ok, I personally find it a bit weird when someone IDs as a dyke and they're in an ongoing relationship with a bloke. Or admitted they're in love with him. But there are always various circumstances, and I've not yet encountered one person who still IDs as a lesbian when they're in a relationship with a man that is some degree of long-standing and/or obviously committed (such as living together, etc). I mean, there may be some people who are so much into denial, but they must be very few.

So the kind of vehemence that the troll has against what I've described - not to mention policing "worse" offenders - is bewildering to me. Seems very much "the lady doth protest", like Ted Haggard.

(And excuse me if I'm totally missing the point; my brane is tired)

[ironed_orchid]

Oh, that bit was definitely offensive. I was latching on to "lots of people who ID as Dykes have sex with men sometimes so now Dyke means bi" bit.

Because i)um what? ii) no, really, WTF? and iii) you what now?

[trixtah]

Oh right, I geddit now. :-)

And yes, seriously WTF????? A few examples, indeed, because I'd never come across that one before either.

It's always hepful when complete strangers explain you to yourself, don't you find?

[trixtah]

I'm just amazed at their perspicacity. And a few other things.

Love the icon. :-)

Icon

It's an honest-to-goodness real park actually called "Fail Park". I had to visit and you can imagine how pleased I was it had a nice clear sign :-).

Re: Icon

[trixtah]

I definitely want to go to Fail Park.

And isn't it worrisome that a suburb can only define itself by a few sports fields and a couple of churches...

Re: Icon

I'll take you if there's time when you're in Brissie.

I'm guessing no-one who lives near there edits Wikipedia. It's just one of the very few online places that even mention Fail Park.
