Flirtation is not a feeling. Flirtation is an action. Attraction is a feeling. Lust is a feeling. Get out your oed and READ it man.

Very nicely said, Chris. However, I do think that it is possible that we embarrassed some of the threadsters, even though we meant no harm or embarrassment to anyone.

Perhaps it would be an interesting topic to discuss this issue on the thread a bit. After all, Terry and I have flirted outrageously from time to time as well, never intending to offend anyone.

How does one define taste? Are there subtle cues that can distinguish teasing from the real thing? The issues are a bit more complex on a thread such as this than they are on threads such as Beltane or Insults, where the intent of the thread is quite clear.
