I think we should accept that it's not a flare up, but that it's a utilization of the thread. I think we should acknowledge that if this thread is accepted to be an open forum of honesty, no matter how hurtful it might end up being for someone's poor ego, then maybe the problem isn't the thread. However, if we feel like too many people are incapable of handling the fact that others can think negatively of them, then maybe we should just remove the thread...

Seems pretty obvious, doesn't it?

Or, we can disallow mods from posting in the thread and keep it open. But of course, you do realize how ridiculous that actually is.

No to all of it. I just ask that everyone take less offense to internet strangers and flame each other responsibly and humorously.

i'm curious to hear what you have to say about this FD

I already replied to someone else regarding my nonjudgemental stance on people who choose other genders, however, if you wish me to reiterate:

I don't have any issue with transgenders. When I used the term "tranny", it was a shortening of the word because it was quicker. I was not aware that the word was an insult, therefore, I used it. I used it to create a description that a woman's makeup resembled such that a man would use if he was to apply makeup to his face.

Let me know if I need to break this down even further for you. I don't have a lot of time, so hopefully you'll be able to get it.

One precludes the other, though, doesn't it?

How so? You can try not reacting like a 5 year to blunt opinions. Or am I misunderstanding you?

I guess neither of these posts were worth responding to.
