Everyone is welcome on CP, but we've seen a lot of psychos that were guys pretending to be girls in the lounge also. In John's defense, it's getting old to see this. Until it's been established that your a bona fide chick, it's tough to tell if you're a wacko or not from our standpoint. The emotionally screwed-up nuts that started this "e-transvitation" crap are to blame. Sorry it turned out like this for you, but the questioning your chickness will fade soon. As you'll soon find out, John is a good person. He has rough edges, but we all do. In the meantime be all the chick you can you can be, and I'm sure you'll be popular on CP. Jeremy L.

Further, witty reparté does not consist of two- or three-word rebuttals that you last heard in grade school, so reading her discussions/arguments probably won't even be worth my valuable time. Lastly, I don't feel the need to validate my attitude or existance to anyone (however, thanks for your support) - I'm a programmer, not a fuckin politician.

No, Bill was the kid in school that was always kicked around by the bigger guys, and now he feels that it's his turn. I'm just tired of all the world's bullshit.

Girls who want to be a part of CP gets intimidated by some of the guys here.. Well, I guess that's the reason why there's a small portion of female here in CP.. it's a really a male denomination site... I don't know why some of the guys here feel Superior about themselves... If somebody doesn't like the post, then just ignored it.. or make your own thread, respect others work.. Is it hard to do? Is it really a big deal if a "real" girl or guy or gay posts the message? NO, What matter is how he/she/it shared his/her/its point of view.. I can't see any restrictions or rules that shouldn't be a topic... As far as I know, explicit words, foul language, ranting and raving should be banned in CP... because we're all professionals here, we should speak in a professional manner...

Jeremy Falcon wrote: be all the chick you can be Is it really a big deal that a member should post a picture just to prove that she's a female? How come some of the guys posted a cartoon character as their pics? That's unfair.. :( :rose::rose::rose::rose::rose: Samantha
"I respect a person who gives respect to other people, but I feel pity to a person who is rude and seems to hate the world except by himself.."<>What about girls or gays pretending to be guys. Did you noticed that? The answer is NO, because guys with names that is obviously male were easily accepted here, while if the name sounds like a girl...gets insulted and teased by some of the guys here which is inapppropriate.. You're absoluetely clueless. We had a number of people post messages pretending to be a female. You're apparently another one. You weren't insulted for being a female (if you are indeed one). You were insulted because of the message you posted. As I stated earlier, your reading comprehensions skills lack sufficient development to distinguish the difference. Besides that, everyone gets insulted and teased here. Get used to it - it's a public forum. we doesn't deserved that kind of treatment.. But you asked for it. Girls who want to be a part of CP gets intimidated by some of the guys here.. Well, I guess that's the reason why there's a small portion of female here in CP.. No, the reason there's such a small percentage of females here is that it reflects the general demographics of the programming trade. See? You're clueless and think you deserve better treatment than other people. it's a really a male denomination site... No, "dominated" is the word you're looking for, and that's a fact. But it's not because it's a great big boy's club - we didn't come here because there weren't any/many chicks. We came here because we can get our programming questions answered and get free code. Chris provides the lounge and the soapbox for discussions like this that do not pertiain to programming. I don't know why some of the guys here feel Superior about themselves... We don't feel "superior". I don't know where that came from. If somebody doesn't like the post, then just ignored it.. Oh yeah, like THAT'S gonna happen. or make your own thread, respect others work.. Your post had NOTHING TO DO WITH "WORK". Is it really a big deal if a "real" girl or guy or gay posts the message? NO, What matter is how he/she/it shared his/her/its point of view.. I can't see any restrictions or rules that shouldn't be a topic... Yes it is a big deal if someone claims they're something that they are not. Life's a bitch, and it ain't fair, but you gotta learn to live within the rules and expectations of the society in which you participate. Besides that, how can anyone trust you if they can't be sure that you're not being truthful about your own identity? A

And I wouldn't want to disappoint my countless fans. I must add, however, that I would honor any request from Chris M. to tone it down, but only in the interest of making it easy for the generally witless to understand. This means that I would have to degrade my literary contributions to simple concepts, and short sentences.

As John has pointed out, it's not that she/he/it's female. It's simply that she/he/it made a crap post. And given that we have had many experiences with males pretending to be females, that's why, in our opinion, it's a guilty until proven innocent situation.

However, since it's merely an opinion I think Samantha can safely disregard it as such. Domenic [_Geek_n] wrote: Remember, this is not a legal system, this is a system of our opinions and ideas. I was speaking in terms of the ideals that our legal system is based on. The ability to allow someone freedom of expression without dismissing them as unworthy, and attacking them for having spoken. The issue is extending people the common courtesy out of the same ideals that give us our freedom to our own opinions and ideas in the first place. But to each his own, right?
