QUOTE(lurker @ Jan 7 2008, 06:47 PM) Your profile says male though and Mollie doesn't sound like a man's name. Lurker. Some of us have discovered through personal experience that there is evidence of gender dysphoria in some who register at BSDA. Although I was personally quite surprised that YB is now Mollie, I suppose we will have to pay closer attention in LC. nw -------------------- “I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” C.S.

QUOTE(Ian @ Jan 7 2008, 07:00 PM) Nice... Never been there , now I am afraid to go there... Ripple, don't be afraid. LC is a great place to socialize and if you take a couple friends along (like "G" and Mollie) you should do just fine. We can show you the ropes and watch your back all at the same time! -------------------- Got Peace?

Bruce, could you do me a favor? Could you go down to Thompsonville and talk to this guy named Danny? He's been picking on people, and I thought maybe you could convince him to stop doing that.

QUOTE(YogusBearus @ Jan 7 2008, 04:28 PM) In light of the current activity, I've decided that it's time for me to come out as it were. I just can't continue the subterfuge of hiding behind my screen name any longer. I think it's time to end the speculation and invite others to join me in this liberation. I would prefer that we not use my last name but you may call me Mollie if you must. There, I feel so much better… -bear (a/k/a mollie) Outstanding. I have not had a problem with people using pen names. I happen to think that there are valid reasons for doing so. In fact, when I first came here I used the name Observer, and did not reveal that my true name was Gregory Matthews. I think that this has to be an individual choice, and I do not criticize those who do not reveal who they are. However revealing one'e true name adds to credibility. Case in point: One I decided that I probably knew who Appletree might be, I have placed more value in what Appletree posts. NOTE: Calvin I am not fishing in regard to the identity of Appletree. Mollie, if you are truely going to "come out," I will make a suggestion. It might be well for you to give us your last name. Just about all of us are going to assume that you are a very specific Mollie. It is sorta like if I were talking to someone about a high elected official in the U.S., and said: "George said. . . ..," most people would assume that I meant President George Bush. In the same sense, most of us will assume that you are a very specific Mollie. But, it is (remotely perhaps) possible that there is more than one person in the world named Mollie, and that another Mollie might be posting on BSDA. By stating your last name, even though it is likely the person we think it is, it will prevent us from wrongly attributing what you say to someone else, if that is true. NOTE: My comments while directed to Mollie, are also directed to others who might use this thread to "come out." e.g. I beleive that there is more than one "Garwin" associated with 3-ABN. So, it might be helpful to know which Garwin it is who also has come out. Again, I am wanting to make a suggestion to a couple of people who have demonstrated a willingness to reveal to this public who they are. My suggsting is that it might prevent some confusion if they were more specific. IF they chose not to be, I accept that, and do not criticize them for doing so. I am not attempting to "out" them beyond what they are willing to do themself. -------------------- Gregory Matthews posts here under the name "Observer."
