I think we do need to go crazy about the other sites though. Everyone all over: newspapers, news, talk shows, everyone is saying how horrible MySpace is for being a site that caters to child predators and how easy the site makes it for children to be victimized and NO ONE Is saying anything about all the other trouble sites.

I've been speaking out against other sites for years and I'm alway met with laughter and accusations that I'm uptight.

All the bashing of MySpace also makes me very defensive as it's been a very safe and sane place for me to meet with people - people that don't hit on me and have no expectation of sexual gratification. No one on MySpace asks me inappropriate questions or makes fun of me. Yep. All the bashing makes me feel very very defensive. I don't want anyone ruining MY safe place.

(sorry for being so agressive - i'm having an off day)
