• Moira, I am glad you are here! (NT) -- Magenta, 07:33:21 07/11/01 Wed
• BINGO! Im afraid my point got somewhat lost among the WORDS - I was trying to say that we are all persons, and whats the point of sorting folk into little boxes? (NT) -- gumtree, 10:17:32 07/11/01 Wed
  • The only reason behins the imperative to sort people into boxes is the human drive to see what our chances are for getting shagged. I'm not being flip about this, I'm serious. Without the little boxes, people tend to run about like Eddie European Nations bit: "Oh...err...you're with him? Right and you? Yes, with, umm, sorry...hello!" (NT) -- Vex., who hopes she's not crashing the party...?, 11:26:11 07/11/01 Wed
    • Very well put. Feeble attempt at organizing this mess into something one can put a handle to...the way the brain is structured - early on, we see the burny end of a candle and say "pretty!" and then get burned. (NT) -- gumtree, 11:48:16 07/11/01 Wed
      • Precisely. I mean, it's all very well and noble to say that there should be no labelling of sexuality (hence no sexism, hate crimes, pigeon-holing, etc.), but at the end of the day, it would get very complicated at the cocktail party, know-wot-I-mean? (NT) -- Vex., 12:26:35 07/11/01 Wed
        • Or it could make every party into a Roman orgy! Peel me a grape, you georgeous hunk of a man, woman, boy, whatever, as longs as it's flesh (NT) -- spoot, 12:53:04 07/11/01 Wed
          • ...which would be heaven for those interested in everyone, or even just perhaps interested in a little something-maybe with anyone, but what about people who are less open? The strictly straight or the strictly gay? If everything's a spectrum it means there are two ends, and those two ends would be miserable in a category-less society, yes? (NT) -- Vex., who's thinking about all this waaay too much..., 13:56:22 07/11/01 Wed
• hahahaha well said folks and i spose its true but to me it doesnt work mind you ive never actually worried about getting shagged...hehehe i think i must have slipped throught that net it never occurs to me at all...i just float not to any great success but in happy haze ....so as i say im not much use in this debate really but its great to hear your comments so thanx for that folks huggggggggs;].. (NT) -- moiraxxx vague but happyish, 11:55:42 07/11/01 Wed
  • Lucky girl! I often imagine all the things I could do with my life if I wasn't thinking about sex all the time...it would be very freeing, but, I don't think I'd survive very long... (NT) -- Vex., 12:40:17 07/11/01 Wed
• sorry that sounds as if i am laughing at what people say and im not at all...its just i spose personal opinion with me i would hate to be boxed and i have been and know how it feels...and i just havent the urge with anyone else what do i know well just what my soul tells me and no more please tho chat on...ill make the tea and bring the biccys hugggggggs;] (NT) -- moiraxxx unqualified to debate this will listen and learn, 12:00:19 07/11/01 Wed
  • Moira you silly goose, your thoughts are always the most on the point of all of us, and yeah I know what you mean about shagging, it doesn't occur to me a lot of times in the real world but somehow Eddie does it to me, don't know why, maybe coz he's safely out of reach! But do sit down and don't be shy, you know we all LOVE it when you talk, your mind is a playground of ideas and images! (NT) -- spoot, 12:50:12 07/11/01 Wed
• As per usual I'm days late responding for I've been out of town, but Moira this is a great post. I do think the very deepest part of a person is the most significant and if we used our seemingly evolved brains, the surface phenomenon of each individual wouldn't be important, but most of us aren't that evolved so I think we both pigeon hole and categorize to gain a small bit of control and order when they don't really exist, because the universe is always changing and entropy is real, but those ideas are too big to grasp most of the time. So in our own little microcosms, we name and categorize and order and judge and somehow this all gives us a sense of understanding and security. Regarding you, I do feel you are one of the few people I've encountered in my life that doesn't judge others, you take people face on, for whoever they are. That makes you a very unique person. The infinite possibilities don't terrify you, you embrace them, where others it would scare to death. (NT) -- BZC you're special Moira, just like Eddie...., 15:02:27 07/12/01 Thu
