Welcome back Magenta! I think a whole lot of people just like everything in it's box and lots of rules and no surprises. So when some one comes along and looks outside the box, they get insecure and frightened until they can figure out another box to put him/her in. So it's like, oh he's a fag, or it's just a gimmick or he's a sex pervert, cut off his head! The last category is not a good one to be in of course, as no one can live without their heads. -- Eddie Pedantic Gasbag Discussion Group

In reply to: Teri 's message, " Hello all! Magenta I agree with you 100%....but I do have to admit that as open minded as I am it still does give me a small pause when I encounter something a bit different....but I quickly process it and go on...much in the same way if I see someone in a great outfit or something. But that's societies influence on me that I am desperately trying to change with my kids. They don't think it odd in the least to see a man in a dress and make-up....thanks to Eddie!" on 17:54:19 07/09/01 Mon

LOL! You are talking witch-hunts, Spoot. Teri, that's OK to have a 'small pause' cos you don't quickly chop their heads off!!!!!! (NT) -- Magenta (Head still intact), 15:45:08 07/10/01 Tue
