I am not into that sort of thing. Pleasuring has many facets.

Switches triggered the BDSM facet which is pleasurable for some.

But I understand your inference. All that are not of your tribe are d*****ts.

Maybe some members of your tribe d*****t as well


I reckon that depends on your definition of d*****t. Huh?
Do you like leather?

Serious answer or insult bait?

Yes. That would add creativity to our banter

Not in a good pair of shoes or a handbag.

Just to giggles, I did a search about IDF International Technologies, Inc, the owner of said site. The owner has an Eastern European name and lives in the Miami area. I wager he is blue through and through. Also, their moderators first language IS NOT English. Again, indicative of blueness.

Hmmm…a Russian disinformation site.

I did that same search years ago, principally because I couldn't think of anything associated with IDF, except Israeli Defense Force...

I also wondered if someone with access to the Private Messages was conversing daily on the forum...

If I could have confirmed that, I would have typed something outrageously out of character - after nine years, so many outrageous things have been typed it no longer matters.

age-old adage: "Familiarity breeds contempt." - or indifference.

It's just offensive and disrespectful language. It would only be good among friends who (both, or all) enjoy kidding each other and are used to doing it with that word. But if it's said to somebody who doesn't like it, it's just offensive and disrespectful. It's also offensive and disrespectful to third parties who overhear it, unless they also happen to be familiar and happy with that kind of talk with all those people.

There are some people (as you may be) who are just thick-skinned about some set of insults (though they might be highly offended by some other set of insults, or in some other circumstances).

Among people whom one knows really well, it might be acceptable banter, but out in public it isn't. It wouldn't be right to presume that everybody should be as thick-skinned as you are about the same sets of things in the same sets of circumstances.

It is impossible to say anything to anyone, anywhere, at any time, without incurring the possibility of offending them or a listener.

It isn't a question of thickness of skin, but whether you are an adult.

Freedom of speech is a right, other than the obvious of refraining from screaming "fire" in a crowded theater.

If someone chooses to be offended at another person's speech, that is their choice.

They should have learned as a child that not everyone thinks alike, behaves alike or speaks alike, and they should have learned to deal with it.

No one has the right to never be offended. How ridiculous would that be!

On the other hand, if someone is deliberately attempting to provoke you, you have a decision to make.

Fight or run.

Many Republicans are offended by an honest e******n, and even by honest behavior by an e******n official.

”It's also offensive and disrespectful to third parties who overhear it,…” somewhat like foul language used by many yet you and your ilk find acceptable.

Shall I produce 150 examples of Democrats being e******n deniers? Rhetorical question. In your mind, your progressive party is above reproach.
