Imagine.......

Waking up in a world where everyone else was plaid. You walk out on the street and cars screech to a halt, people stop and point. A child cries. You run back inside. You are the minority.

Sadly enough, this is how people have been treated. Because of their color, their faith, their disability. Imagine being alone in the world and having to walk out that door everyday, knowing that eyes are watching you. Makes you think, doesn't it?

How would you cope?

I'd probably just run around and scare people and enjoy it.......People can suck alot anyway, no matter what ya look like, so I'd probably ignore them or use it to my advantage in some sick way........:eek:

When I started this website I had already collected a rather large amount of photographs for a friend. I'm kind of a pack rat when it comes to photos. I keep them just in case someone needs them. So when I put up my gallery i started with what I collected the most of: Porn. I think the human body is beautiful and can admire both men and women. Since most of my friends are male, I had a rather large female section which I put up, along with submissions by readers.

Since I had no clue as to HTML or anything having to do with being a webmaster I joined a support forum for help. It was the first forum I had ever joined. Everyone was very nice and i really started to feel comfortable. Then a moderator sent me a message stating that my site was 'unacceptable' and that I would have to remove my link in my profile and possibly change my username. I was crushed. I cried. I never went back.

That time I went back in the house and shut the door. A month or two ago the same thing happened. I moderator posted that they removed my link and the heading on his post was 'This is a Family site'. I was fit to be tied. I went back and emailed him, CC-ing the administrators stating that it should have been handled with more tact and that his post should be removed. I told them that if I was unwelcome in their forum that I would like the administor to email me and state so. I recieved an appology from the mod who removed his post and an open arms welcome saying how much they enjoyed me posting. This time I did what Jenn Jenn did. I walked up to the people and got in their face. It felt so good.

That's a lowly attitude, banning people for a link in your sig. As long as you keep to the posting rules on that board I see no reason why they had to remove you.

In most cases you get the best result by being direct. I have extensive experience in that :)

People sometimes hurl thier jealousy and ugliness my way. It took some getting used to but, am comforted by knowing not everybody can be as ruggedly handsome, successfull and as fun at parties as I am.

After all, that is why I am on the internet, wearing plaid ... right now.
