> Here's common ground between us, because I don't understand you, either. It seems to me that you had never responded to anything I wrote until I volunteered to apply for deputy here. Now, it seems, you are responding to many of the things I post. I can't say that I feel educated nor supported, though.Nor do I Racer. Nor do I. However please note that I have NEVER accused you of causing my problems dire or otherwise. While I appreciate your rephrase, the original statements (which of course I deny) remain on the eating board. Please consider using your position as deputy to remove this post. I can provide a link if you need it.
You have in the past posted asking me questions etc and when I respond you never acknowledged it.
I dont think you being a deputy has anything to do with it. I usually post on admin. Perhaps you have posted on admin more after you volunteered to be a deputy ? I am glad you are a deputy. I believe your history of multiple PBCs and Please rephrases with no blocks is a very promising development. I hope it will prompt you to give others similiar treatment. As you know I am opposed to blocks and believe perhaps you will serve as a good argument for PBCs with no blocks for all of us.I was not aware of responding to your posts in particular. I offered links refuting some of the facts you chose to post about treatment of anorexia on the psychology board. I thought this was educational. I do not find your paraphrase of Coulter's statement accurate. It wasn't personal. I thought it was educational. You have in the past posted to me asking me questions etc and when I respond you never acknowledged it. Which is certainly your choice.
I notice you have chosen not to respond to the factual elements of my post. I am troubled by the critique of Anne Coulter's appearance. Try googling ann coulter and anorexia and you will find that it is quite the commonplace topic. Some say no one would listen to her if she weren't so thin while others say her thinness is proof she is mentally ill and should be dismissed totally.
I think it would be nice if people weren't judged on their appearances. I think it would be nice if people's ideas were presented in context.
I think that is a good topic for Babble.
Please do not block me for 9 weeks.
