Yes, I totally agree. What started as rather warm and light-hearted complaints about people we care about has frequently devolved into uncomfortable stereotypes that don't belong here. Same goes for the gay thing. I probably provoked both threads for a moment of levity, although I certainly didn't expect them to drag on this long. Nor did I expect them to become offensive, so I apologize for the list to anybody who was bothered by it. Once again, let's move on. And thanks for speaking up Corynne. Feel free to kick butt anytime. :-) kim At 5:20 PM -0700 8/11/97, Goddess wrote: > You know, it's really making me uncomfortable to be present on this list >when all I'm hearing lately is "my girl friend does or doesn't do this", >or >the implication that all women love Tori or something like "yuck! girl >germs!".
