"We now know that you believe that an [unnamed] male not only "got off on" (to borrow your term for it) the sexual shit and harassment he pulled on some [unnamed] females, but that he got off on the social opprobrium, too;" Remarkable how intimate her undestanding of CH's feelings...makes you think, doesn't it?

It is my opinion everyone got what they wanted. Poet got to play the victim. (and when I say play, I do mean play, for all the parts) You got to play the noble crusader/maternal figure protector a gaggle of men could imagine themselves knights errant CH got to play the martyr and unrepentant iconoclast Neo got to play the peacemaker I'm sure I've left some players out. I enjoyed playing the other. I've always enjoyed that roll, because it brings out the beast in others. You still haven't a clue what I believe. To say CH "got off" without including the flip side of Poet's getting off, is to completely twist what I said. To be expected of you, of course, but still, I must tell you, you are WRONG. They got off together, and somehow managed to pull everyone else into their affair. It was a long running drama, enjoyed by everyone who posted, which is why it is still going on. The continued participation proves the fascination. IMO
