ORIGINAL: marieToo No one called Icarys opinion "a load". Those points always seem to conveniently escape you. So people are entitled to make general claims that are false under the pretense of it being "opinion", but someone cannot respond with and opinion stating they feel the initial statement is a "load"? This isn't about who's being nicest. Even if it was, the subtle insult to many ;natural subs' cradled in SM's words should count more heavily than Icarys' assessment of those words. quote:
ORIGINAL: marieToo When someone makes a statement about subjective matters, as opposed to saying something factual like 2+2=4, it is clear to anyone with half a brain, that it's the opinion of the person making the comment. Really? So, if I were to say: "No site members with usernames beginning with lowercase m's could possibly be sufficiently "inspiring" to anyone other than the desperate!" ...that would be just an opinion, right? I mean there's no way to verify if what I say is true, correct? quote:
ORIGINAL: marieToo Or do we need to handle this like 8th grade politically correct bullshit so as not to hurt anyone's feelings, by prefacing everything we say with "in my opinion". Opinions can be wrong. Your decision to be intentionally obtuse about this so as to grant leniency is irrelevant. quote:
Submissives, especially GREAT submissives, are MADE and INSPIRED by someone who is actually, well DOMINANT! All it takes is for me to find one...one submissive that can attest to being submissive not by the hand of some uber-cool dominant power, but by her own natural persona...and it doesn't matter how "personal" the "opinion" is....it will be wrong. This is a verifiable statement. Those have a spot on the "correct" and "incorrect" continuum. People are free to have opinions, yes. People are not free to have their opinions also be "right" by virtue of them wishing it.
