    This is getting into a real mud wrestling match. ;P I will admit he could very easily have been in The Village People, but you shouldn't go round calling people gay or lesbian purely because of how they look or act - that creates bad stereotypes and gives John something to laugh about. :rolleyes:

            Thanks Dave. :) I do try my best to ignore John and his bigotted comments, but at times I really do have to restrain myself from telling him what I think of his opinions! :mad: As far as the new version of ResOrg goes - once the code's done, I expect to have to take at least a couple of weeks to update the help and website. That's the real boring bit. :| Once I get that far I'm quite happy to send you an advance copy (I'd guess source is best) so you can have a sneak preview. Just let me know. :) Anna :rose: www.annasplace.me.uk

              John, Guess what? I don't care what you think. You're bigotry is your problem, not mine. You leave me to live my life and I'll leave you to live yours, OK? I may have been born looking like a guy, but that doesn't mean I have to spend the rest of my life pretending to be one. One more thing. As far as how I look is concerned, I'm quite happy with my appearance and figure, and so it seems are most others...I've been receiving emails at work today congratulating me on how good I look, and I don't get a second glance when I go out in public. Stay out of my life and I'll stay out of yours. Anna :rose: www.annasplace.me.uk

                  It will be difficult, because I think of you as still being male but hiding it. I would be lying and I really can't do that. I will do my best to avoid the situation. I hope you can understand.

Yet earlier you said "Sometimes its better to be quiet than to be honest about your feelings.", so while not a direct hypocrisy I think it is bordering on one. Also as I am no doubt you are aware I don't believe in idly sitting by when I disagree with something. I do try and be constructively critical though.

                                :rolleyes: It's hardly a Herculean task but I'm guessing you must have a religious angle. That can be the only explanation for such unwillingness to comply with someone else's wishes. Perhaps the only way out is to *always* make sure you say "Anna's" instead of "his" or "Anna" instead of "he". That way you will not by "lying" as you call it, and you will cause Anna no offence :) "The folly of man is that he dreams of what he can never achieve rather than dream of what he can."

                                      I felt it only fair to warn everyone, so on with the show... Andy - dude - you don't even *look* like a girl. Andy, everyone at your job knows you as a guy. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that under their insulation of forced acceptance, several of your co-workers are saying "What the fuck!?". Make no mistake abut it, this WILL affect your ability to do your job, and it will affect your co-workers' ability as well. Everybody's been great? Does "being great" mean they're simply not openly disgusted with the idea, or that they honestly think you're doing the right thing? You don't need to respond, and nobody else does either, because I'm probably one of the few people here (if not the ONLY person) that would actually say what he thinks about this topic, and I'm honestly not interested in hearing from people that I have to be accepting or tolerant. ------- signature starts "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001 Please review the Legal Disclaimer in my bio. ------- signature ends

                                      Hmm.... lets see, one of has met Anna and one hasn't..... One of us knows her from experience and one is trying just justify their prejudice by saying everyone else has a problem... Classical dumping of responsiblity on others. Yes, I've just said what I think about this topic ;P The tigress is here :-D

Yet earlier you said "Sometimes its better to be quiet than to be honest about your feelings.", so while not a direct hypocrisy I think it is bordering on one. Also as I am no doubt you are aware I don't believe in idly sitting by when I disagree with something. I do try and be constructively critical though.

I guess honest was not the correct word to use. Let's replace honest with vocal.

I don't idly sit by either, but when someone makes a choice in life that you don't agree with, sometimes you need to let them learn on their own.
