Piny asks questions about stuff. Shannon’s brain is confused, but if you are awake and not sleep like shannon, maybe you have ideas. Another lady has thoughts about transgender people. Hey, spotted elephant is saying stuff. She’s my favorite radical feminist. Cept me. Like stigma against mental illness is bad. People don’t get help and so their conditions get worse. This is bad! Also, mental illness doesn’t make you say bad things about transpeople. I felt pretty nervous and confused lately, but I don’t remember calling transpeople bad names or anything.

I posted my real comment to this thread, incorrectly, in the two-thousand-sex thread, because I am an incompetent commenter, thereby finding a commonality with Twisty, which makes me very proud.

You know, some of us come here not only because of the patriarchy blaming, but also because of the superior quality of Twisty's <i>writing</i>.You know, writing? Some of you finger pointers might like to go away and hone yours a little. Everything Sara said.

Please forgive me if you knew and were intentionally ignoring it or if someone else has already pointed it out; I am multitasking and unable to wade through the foregoing comment stream at this time. In my camp, which isn't actually camped anywhere, we (and maybe it's just I) 1. don't care about the efficiency of your moderation, if any, because we have adopted the practice, once a thread turns burdensome, of simply scanning the comments looking for voices we already know we like to read, and we don't really care if this offends anyone to discover because we are oid, and busy; 2. don't say much about transgender politics because, not being transgender ourselves, we doubt our ability to add anything intelligent to discourse on the subject besides a general atmosphere of acceptance, and at the same time don't really feel it's our duty to tell other people what they should and should not write about; and 3. don't do cults, or Kool-Aid, ever, and thus -- sorry -- wouldn't even try to join yours if we believed you had one. (It's not personal. It's a lifestyle choice.) We in my camp just like your writing and enjoy the writing of your commenters when it is witty and/or informative, especially when it is also coherent. This is even true when your and/or their stated opinions do not entirely agree with ours, an event we may or may not feel compelled to divulge every time it occurs. Can't help you with the damnation. Sorry. It's not our area of expertise. We sincerely wish you well, though, in spite of it all. Blame on. Actually, there’s at least one other camp.
