what do i really mean to say here?

sigh.

i really hate it when people go 'off topic!' in response to peoples posts. i think it is nice that threads are able to evolve.

but there is something a little sad when the posters original issue (the reason they started the thread) is overlooked because of the way the thread evolved.

the thread was about my desire to have sex with an actual living person.

someone suggested getting a bunny and i said that i didn't want to do that for a variety of reasons.

and then people started posting about how wonderful bunnies are and so on and so forth at the expense of participating in the original topic.

or when they do post something about having sex with an actual living person who one is not in a long term relationship with they expressed disapproval.

so the thread isn't about supporting me or engaging in the topic at all.

it seems to have become about other people defending their views.

thats fine...

but maybe it would have been better for people to have started a thread of their own to talk about the virtues of bunnies. especially after i (as the thread starter) had made my feelings clear and had attempted to bring things around to the original topic.
