Oh, no, it's way worse on Facebook--

I made a mistake. I was speaking about literate hiker. Here is Kathleen's bio which may offer some explanation. However it seems contradictory within its purview and is no excuse for her lack of sensitivity. Someone who realizes what she does should have no problem recognizing it and stopping herself.

I can have an acerbic tongue and usually am lacking in tact and diplomacy. My sarcastic humor is sometimes mistaken for something else. Always working on improving these aspects, but I do not expect to live enough to master them. I am an astute observer of people and have a high sense of fairness. I abhor a mob mentality. Here more for community than anything, I pretty much feel my chance at love is over. I am an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) and I believe in kindness. , integrity, and honorability are highest on the list of attributes I admire in the people with whom I associate. is very close behind.

No your not. She is a prude and has no sensitivity unless it is about her. One of her pictures show her straddling a chair, and thinking I was on Deviants I stated I wish I was sitting on the chair, which set her off. The next day she liked someone who was turned off by the fact I was discussing a sexually themed convention. Just block her. That is what I did.

I continually thank you for educating...I am learning, so thank you also for your patience and pointing out these things...sometimes it takes me a few times to "get it"...it is not hard to unlearn once it is pointed out...I don't like this either...I get that it is meant to be silly, but not at the expense of others...

Insensitive at the least.

Hmm. Well, I suppose it depends. If said by someone who in no way means anything derogatory, I can see the humor in it. But I can also see why some would take offense. I believe we should be able to make fun of basically anything, but sometimes some topics are to sensitive for some people. In a perfect world, where there was only equality and love, anything can be made into dark humor. But it is hard to accept sometimes if you have experienced the actual negativity of the topic. I guess I can see both sides. But technically speaking all humor is at someones expense. Just a matter of degree and audience.

Yup no longer posted.

No longer sure how to get across to folks what bullying and poor humor is? Suggestions welcome.

Seems like a return to junior high when 'gay jokes' were a thing and I cringed every day.

I will keep up the 'See something Say something ' hoping it gets it across.

This is quite disappointing

Disgusting !!!

I was very disturbed reading that.

Awful! In your prior post that referenced someone refering to Trans issues as "frivolous," this attempt at a joke is frivolous, while also being callous and dismissive. bleh!
I like to think these represent opportunities for social consciouness education (we can all do better in that), but I can see how that quest gets to be exhausting. :/

SMH...

She's very nice... I don't know if she meant to offend trans people...

Seems we are an easy target ?
