Is It Just My Imagination?

[AtlantaGirl487]

Could I get some opinions please? Is it just my imagination or has the number of a**holes (on this site) increasing? Last year I worked up the nerve to post three stories of my husband and I in which I related my feelings about my "coming out" and trying some new things in our sex life. I was really pleased with the positive comments that I received from readers (about 95% was totally positive). In fact, my husband and I have corresponded regularly with many of them and have even exchanged some photos. However, some of the comments really blew me away with their ignorance and just plain idiocy. My husband laughed himself silly at some of the remarks but, to tell the truth, I didn't see the humor in them. In fact, some of them sounded like they came from some of the fine Baptists that I have come to loath. I mean, if a person doesn't like something, why can't they just move on instead of being a total a**hole? I would like to publish some more stories concerning what my husband and I have been up to, but, sometimes, I just don't think it's worth it. Any ideas? Thanks!

They were always here.

You have been fortunate not to have met them before.

No matter what on-line posting/chatting community you're in, there will always be shit-stirrers who intentionally antagonize

But once in a while, a rose is laid at your feet and we return

I don't know if the number increased, or just if their frequency. Sadly getting feedback does come with a skin thickening agent, so while the 95% are positive (and that's a number I'm jealous of) the other 5% are what teaches us to hold our head high, and keep writing.

But above all else, you must keep writing.

a never ending problem...

I agree with both posts above. It's one of the downsides of having free speech. It is also somewhat amplified in any on-line community where people can remain anonymous and this gives certain degenerates the ability to rant, degrade, pour out hateful abuse and otherwise try to ruin your day.

All I can say is go with the opinion of the 95% positive types and do what you want to do. As much as the bile that might come your way is off putting, I suggest laughing at the cretins and otherwise ignore them.

As my mother once said to me, only fish should rise to the bait.

Why do you effing care what others think?

My guess is, based on experience, something in it touches a raw nerve. That is youre ambivalent about the shit you and hubby do.

No one is immune to the poo-flingers...and at sometime in all our lives we fling poo, if for no other reason than to prove we can.

But there are those, like JBJ, who are professional poo-flingers.

 

[lesbiaphrodite]

There are a lot of people who so enjoy the anonymity the Internet offers that they use it often as a wonderful release valve to express whatever vitriole they feel about life on anyone willing to put their work out there.

Sometimes people just do what they do.

I do excel at it.

But if I called you, say, a 'purple tree' its likely you'd blow off the appellation as weird nonsense. And if I call you some other name, say, 'retarded' you might blow a gasket. In that case 'retarded' likely touches a nerve with you.

Us pro's simply change the names till we find your button.

No buttons there! Although that AV of you ugly mug does kind of remind me of your late grandfather who molested me as a child.

If you are writing for adoration, just show the stories to people who adore you.

And don't forget that there are delete and ignore buttons around here somewhere

Yeah, people could put JBJ on ignore but it much more fun watching him make an ass out of himself time and time again.

 

[MCard]

Uh, I was in another room, could you repeat that?

If you had the brains to ignore me you'd never have another boner in this life.

 

[MagicaPractica]

There are always trolls, but if you post a story in the Loving Wives category you might be lucky to get any positive comments. The trolls live there. If you can fit your stories in another category, I would suggest doing so. Otherwise, just enjoy the good coments and delete the others as you please.

That's a lotta donkey magic.....or 'Donkey Kong' as some would tag it in the day.....
JBJ....you go, boy!!!
(I hope he feels empowered by that bit of patronization - it's part of the defense mechanism for the mentally challenged as JBJ is.....)

Youre self-actuating in a variety of ways.

Keep writing, and keep faith please. : rose:
There will always be those who don't understand, who are uneducated or who simple hide in anonymity to spit venom. I'd guess you could win the Pulitzer price or a nobel price for Literature and still get such kind of comments. Shrug them away and delete them. And please keep writing!

Thanks everyone! My husband was right. There are a lot more sexy people here than a**holes! You really helped me make up my mind!!!

Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
