I mean, you could always just choose to instead let them focus on some other aspect of their existence than that thing, right? I got a friend in SL that cant move nothing but his head (swimming accident). We went to war with a dummy who threatened him. said he was gonna track him down and ROLL him down a hill in his bed. Told me, ME he was gonna come to my house with a baseball bat. I told him if he show up at my house, him and that bat gonna have TROUBLE getting out MY yard. This fool had money too, lawyers, investigators at his disposal. Had actually tracked down a fool or two that had stolen his ip. Me and my friend weren't scared. And HE couldn't move nothing but his head. We buried that clown that threatened US in a neat lil hole. IN PUBLIC. And this famous good guy dummy called MY FRIEND every offensive thang you can THINK of that you could call a guy that can't move nothing but his head. On TWITTER. ON FACEBOOK. In the Alphaville HERALD. I can provide LINKS. My friend couldn't move NOTHING but his head, but he was tougher than ALL ya'll. Square business.

No, Bagnu, you heard rumors and said that is the reason that you are in your profession to help others feel human who are disabled because you want to help people. All I'm trying to ask is that you stop because there are many, many people who are disabled who have very fulfilling sex lives. Do you understand that? I had sex and a relationship with a man in a wheelchair and we had sex and a relationship. Disabled people can be with whomever they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not your place to demand apologies on behalf of anyone. 1 hour ago, Luna Bliss said: You can't seem to understand she just wants affirmation and is very enthusiastic about her identity She is an escort. YES WE KNOW! It's ALL she could talk about for a while. And no-one cares! It's never been a problem that she is an escort. The problem is in what she said and continued to say despite being told it's annoying and it's offensive. How many fornicating times do we have to say that? And @Bagnu, be careful who you choose to have in your Second Life. Wee Willy Winky (whom I have ignored) does not seem to have your best interests at heart if he is wanting to make your behaviour worse. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply don't understand why you cannot say I won't say that about disabled people anymore? Plus, they don't need your help. You are a professional service. Disabled people can be with whomever they choose to be with. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scylla Rhiadra Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Bagnu said: This one lost me. Being a a part of the "invisible minority" makes me me understand what prejudice is like. Not as well as someone who is is visibly different, but I can empathize. That was with reference, not to you, but to a few people who have been "defending" you here -- and, in the process, exhorting you to be unapologetic and as trollish as they are. If you want to consider the value of the "advice" being offered to you here by Jumpman, you might give thought to the fact that he has actually boasted no less than three times in this thread about harassing someone else to the point that they became near suicidal. And harassment was what it was -- some of us have been around here long enough to remember his absolutely appalling behaviour, and his banning from the forums for it. That's not who you are. Don't fall for it. Pearl, walk away from this thread -- it'll be locked tomorrow anyway. I see that you did apologize, although I think you might have been clearer -- as Lilette says above, it would be great if you were more unequivocal. I know of at least one regular poster who has left this forum, permanently he says, because of the nasty turn this has taken. He's a thoroughly decent man, and this has become too toxic for him. When we start driving people away from here, it's definitely time to take stock of what we are doing wrong, no?

Perhaps, for starters, 'we' should stop considering ourselves rightfully offended on any occassion or subject and give eachother leverage in intend of what is meant by words instead of how sentences are subjectively constructed, before demanding apologies. @Bagnu : Only apologize to anything when considering it yourself. Not because you are told. That is not about decency, but about power. Edited August 3, 2020 by TDD123 JJ 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was where the thread should have ended and faded away but certain people decided to throw themselves in derailing with stupid pictures and singling out people to attack on your behalf thus turning it into something it didn't need to be. We have all seen this behaviour before from this person and then a few others jumped in with their own agenda and absolute tripe. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
