I think most of us come up with "justifiable" reasons for our actions.

Good. Bad. Indifferent.

In the end how we treat another person often comes down to what we feel about ourselves.

We all do our best not to "blame" the people hurting us, to give some benefit that they are doing what they must, but it doesn't change the fact that in certain moments we also feel the need to call bullshit.

Unless you believe in GroupThink...then who the fuck knows.
 
Good conversation. I'm no angel, obviously. I think a lot of us who do the things we do have our own justifications and make compromises that we would not in a perfect world. Nobody starts out with that intent, but life is complicated and there are a lot of moving parts and cause and effects. I try not to judge, and if someone wants to judge me, not to let it bother me.

There are many people here like BB whose judgement I know to be sound. I would never be critical of them, because although I may not know their particular set of circumstances, I would trust their instincts and thought processes.

Yes. :)
 
Good question! Going back to the original posting that set me off, I guess it's because I've been trying to use that same personals section for some time to express an ethical desire. I've been getting no traction whatsoever and I wonder whether it's because I'm just in the wrong place: automatically tainted by association with other stuff that goes on there.

That's my honest brain dump, anyway. Am I going to be judged on that? *shrugs*
.

Can’t people simply disagree with you?
I don’t see you being judged at all.

As for what you are seeking, Lit may not be the place. But who knows?
Take it for what it is at it’s base level ... a mostly friendly community where we can talk about sex.
Or just look at boobs. :)
 
Harry's bachelors party had to be awkward, imagine stuffing the strippers g-string with pictures of your grandmother
 
Eh, the more I try to explain something the more of "me" I let show and I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that right now.
 
I should have been at a barbeque right now but instead I'm stuck at home cursing my pain meds for not working.

You know one thing I finally figured out after way too long is sometimes you don't have to explain anything. So be a private as you want to be and don't worry about it.
