"things have gotten way out of hand, mainly because Poet happens to be a woman.........

When I originally saw the post to YYB I thought it was a sarcastic back atcha insult and chuckled to my self thinking it was cleaver. I now see that Chris has a history of actually pursuing such lines of dialogue with persons who have told him they are put off by such. And it can't all be dismissed as bantering.

Neocon, to me this (happens to be a woman) is a major contributing factor to giving any weight at all to this problem. I don't understand why you minimize that aspect. It would seem odd, if the attention given to Poet were being addressed the same way to an old pal. It would seem very odd to me if I were the recipient of such attention without any more of an explanation than I have seen regarding Poet.

Sorry for not being original but the characterisation E has been using "rubbing up against" someone who has proclaimed rejection, seems accurate and places the behavior way over the line.

Do you not think that a woman has the right to demand a stop to this type of attention. We are not talking about a woman who is "available" to Chris on a friendship level or any other level of relationship which she feels compromises her or her significant other relations.
