[QUOTE="JB Books, post: 2778649, member: 6889"] Fish On, giving you the benefit of the doubt, and assuming you are not trolling, I think you might have mistook the remark about "fish suffocating," as a personal attack, when the member was simply comparing the killing of animals, (i.e., shooting an animal is killing the same way depriving a fish of water is killing an animal). Certainly, Okie is not the kind of guy that would attack you in such a way out of the blue. You became defensive and lashed out at ALL male members with comments about "male egos, etc." Nobody knew your gender until you brought it into the argument. 99% of the men here are very respectful of women. Most of us would take an ass kicking before we would stand by and see a woman hurt or mistreated. Maybe you should examine why you were so quick to perceive Okie's comment as an insult and so quick to lash out. YOUR ego was bruised. This just became a focal point for other things that are bothering you. Which is OK. That happens to a lot of folks. We all have over determined reactions at times. It's part of being human. Read the initial comment that made you angry again and give some thought to the fact that it had nothing to do with your screen name. Any other fussiness after that was based on a misconception. We all make mistakes and we all are a forgiving bunch. You won't find a better group of people in an internet community. Even the ones that get mad and run off for a while are pretty good folks. These folks go out of their way to help one another. So, your participation is up to you. But, if you are sincere, and who and what you say you are, you'd be missing out on an opportunity to make some friends just because of a misunderstanding. [/QUOTE]
