Tell me about it, Edg. When I first started posting here in 2008 I got a ration of race-baiting sexist crap for supporting Hillary's primary. People had me confused with Judy so for a while we teamed up and had a good time bombing FFLife with scrappy post defending ourselves against the regular onslaught of Kool Aid intoxicated Obots. It was fun and exhilarating to get my creative juices flowing and find out I could stick up for myself quite deliciously. I haven't posted much lately. I guess I gradually I grew weary of the SOS. Judy has a lot more fortitude, intellectual acuity and staying power for it all than I do. I cheer her on even if she calls me out for saying stupid stuff from time to time. I take no offense. I find her criticism honest and instructive. It isn't any surprise that more women don't post on FFLife considering for all the bashing you can get around here just for saying you like Hillary Clinton or god forbid, admitting you're a feminist. There's something deep in the psyche of more than a few men that the mere mention of Vagina Dentata frightens the hell out of them as if a powerful female specter is about to swoop down and bite off their dicks. Judy and I had some fun shaking VD in Barry's face for awhile just to push his buttons. I decided from the get go that FFLife wasn't a place for wimps. FFLife has it's own peculiar history of players that makes is an weirdly entertaining place to be. I enjoy reading many of the talented writers who post here. I'm including you in that, Edg. I miss you. I looked up a few of my very early posts on FFLife. I came out swinging right from the start. I don't think the feistiness in my writing will change if someone decides to be an asshole and I take them on. I'm just that I'm less attached to it nowadays. Ravi was an exception that drew me out of my minimal posting shell.
