And remember, you posted to me first. Don't join my conversations if you want to be ignored.
Actually, I will modify my request. I'm sure we agree that a woman can say "no, I don't want to have sex with you" without having to cut off all relations with the person. Two people can be friends up to certain points but not beyond. A "No" in one context doesn't have to mean a "No" in all contexts.
So I am saying "NO" to discussions of past events concerning you, me, Poet, et. al. I am not saying no to all possible future relationships with you. We can still go on electronic dates, meet at a SI friend's house, etc. We just won't go all the way. I am asking you not to verbally assault me, and I deem your continued dredging up of long dead and buried issues to constitute assault. I say no to your assaulting me. But I don't say no to friendly relations. Just as a woman is entitled to say to a man, no, you can't rape me, but we can still go out to dinner together.
BTW, you say don't join your conversation, but I would note that I have been posting here steadily for quite a while, was an active participant in that discussion, when you jumped in. Which is fine. But don't go accusing me of joining your conversation when it was precisely the opposite.
Now, I hope we understand each other.
No to assault, verbal or otherwise.
Yes to friendly relations. |
