Mask & Unbearable by jans_intentions

I'm looking for Mask & Unbearable by jans_intentions. If anyone has these...would you please PM me?

Thanks!

Edit: *blushes* I think I've opened up a can of worms with this post, but I've read some very healthy discussion going on here!

I stopped in just now because I saw so many comments on this post and my first thought was "oh please god, not again", but this convo is really good.

Unfortunately they were on a more personal level and were along the lines of "you dirty fag" or "you gay asshole"

Good lord, someone actually said that to you? O.o

Oh yeah, they did. And that were the more tame things sent my way. :(

*hugs*

I know that we're all pretty passionate people, and our feelings get the best of us, and the easiest thing to do is to revert to name-calling. I've been called a bitch so much that I just laid claim to it and say "yeah I am", you know? But there are lines and limits, and unfortunately, people cross them. All I know is, if someone called my daughter a fucking dyke, whether or not she uses the term herself, I'd be out kicking ass.

The interesting thing is, I grew up with black people calling each other the N word as a term or endearment or a way of greeting. It was pretty much reclaiming a word that was used negatively towards them. Same as I hear gay men use the F word. But then, we get pissed when someone else calls us that, someone that's "other". What I did was drop the N word from my vernacular when I was a teen, and I don't use it, don't like it, don't want it used around me. I would assume you feel the same.

Sorry for the scare, I may be opinionated but I try hard to talk reasonably with others. (As noted below when I said that [livejournal.com profile] josieb1 and I had to agree to disagree.) Though I'll admit that if someone chooses to rant, rave, and cuss about me that I can't always stop myself from ranting, raving, and cussing right back at them. Just because they erase any instances of them behaving poorly doesn't mean it did not happen and they can pretend that they never did anything in the wrong...however, as I explained to Connor in an e-mail you never know who is screencapping...

Edited because I can't type.

Oh, no, I was just happy that the conversation was civil! lol

We're all of us opinionated to a certain degree. We can get heated when we feel we're being misunderstood. But as long as everyone is being respectful, I'm good with it.

Trust me, I never used to screencap anything, but I've learned that sometimes it can cave your ass. lol
