Well, in an effort to change the foot that's currently in my mouth...

I also don't think you have anything to apologize for... and am wondering why they all pounced upon you like them did... must be the moon lately I think.

In fact, I admire your factual admission. Many of the members here "hate" men or women they just haven't got the wherewithal to put it in writing like you do... but you sure can read it between the lines in their posts. And when they say it in other words, it is gently nudged into the right direction.

I guess your directness caused others to address you likewise: directly.

LOL you even got under DJs skin... I won't elaborate further.

Nah, you are being quite CIVIL for apologizing, but honestly is a good thing, at least to me.

And, we usually do speak in generalities here. (which is what you did)... so, go figure!
