Hi LP,

Oh I agree with you.  Where I ponder the similarities is when we know something is being manufactured in slave-like and unethical conditions, and continue to purchase from those producers.  Like the johns & hookers.  We condemn the johns while ringing up our latest purchase (and as you say, other people make shoes).

The thing is, we all do it, don't we?  I know I do, when I buy make up from companies that engage in cruel vivisection.  Whenever I buy clothes "Made in Indonesia", I do so understanding they may have been made in sweat-shops.  I buy them without doing my homework first.

Human nature is interesting/curious to me.  It's OK to condemn one segment of people while engaging in what could be similar behaviors ourselves.  Perhaps when it directly affects us or someone we know, it's too close to home, so we do or say something about it.

Don't mind me, I'm just pondering here and thinking about my own shopping integrity, so to speak.


ETA: Didn't mean to get into a derail, btw. The topic of integrity and then purchasing "product" without integrity got me philosophizing a bit.

ROTFL I used to have one of those but it broke from overuse. ~sad face~ That's one of the good things about the real thing, they don't break from overuse.

Hi NV,

Ah, it's probably about finished anyway.  [;)]

I will say that you're probably a more conscientious shopper than I am, especially on cosmetics.  I'll have to look into that.




Arpig -> RE: prostitution/integrity poll (8/23/2011 2:58:41 PM)

I agree, an x-ray of a broken penis is usually a pretty good sign that a thread has passed it's best before date.[:D]

I started a thread in Off Topics to share links to ethical shopping.  I listed cosmetics in it.

I think the OP made the statement that someone said that to her, but in reading the clarification of what was actually said, it was revealed the OP was not accurate.
Except that was not the case. I read the thread in question (not something I recommend though the level of willful self-deception displayed in it is mind numbing).
what was said was:
quote:

When you can stop using men without regard to them as human beings and you can wash the cum stains from your intestinal track then come and talk to me about integrity and the failings of people. Till then, I aint gonna listen to you. Know what i mean.
And when it was pointed out that saying that was pretty childish, the response was
quote:


Oh BTW...while you're feeling so put upon by my hooker statement..It's the truth. You're casting stones about integrity..I thought it pertinent to point out the irony.

Now in the OP, the following statement was made
quote:

on a thread in p&r, someone pointed out that i used to be a prostitute as an argument as to why i was wrong. he then claimed it was to demonstrate that i had no integrity.
Be so kind as to explain to me how the latter is not an accurate summary of the former. I am really looking forward to this one.


i'm the one first who argued that the OP misunderstood what was said to her in the P&R thread. i believe i said she "misunderstood or was deliberately misrepresenting" the above posts. It's clear now that SHE understood them perfectly, and i'm the one who misunderstood. i'm so ashamed that i said that. i skimmed the post instead of reading in carefully, and jumped to unwarranted conclusions. i'm so sorry, Hannah. The one without integrity here is me, for passing judgement and shooting my mouth off about what i clearly misread in the first place, and then blaming others for my mistake. To everyone on this thread- i'm really sorry. i'm going to take a break form posting for a while, because i've noticed that i've been consistently misunderstanding posts, and making unwarranted attacks on people. i don't know what my problem is. i'm going to disappear for a while until i can get my head out of my ass. i am an idiot. My apologies to everyone who posted on this thread, especially Hannah.

Regards,
pam (gungadin09)

ETA: Sorry, using Joe's computer, and forgot to log Him off of collarme. Sigh. Yep, i'm an idiot.




gungadin09 -> RE: prostitution/integrity poll (8/23/2011 8:23:57 PM)

That last post was from me. Sorry.

pam




HannahLynHeather -> RE: prostitution/integrity poll (8/23/2011 8:26:30 PM)

don't go away pam, stick around




HannahLynHeather -> RE: prostitution/integrity poll (8/23/2011 8:35:22 PM)

your integrity isn't in doubt, when you posted what you did you thought you'd read it right, and when you saw you didn't you retracted your statement and apologized.

an apology is a fucking rare thing around here.

relax, so you attacked a few people, so fucking what. its a message board on the net, it doesn't mean a fucking thing




gungadin09 -> RE: prostitution/integrity poll (8/23/2011 8:41:56 PM)

Thanks, but i'm not leaving out of shame so much as... well, i just need to get my head straight. i feel all topsy turvy, moody and shit, and i'm having trouble concentrating. i think i'm depressed, and the drama of the forums isn't helping, and neither is the excuse that it gives not to leave the house. Thanks, though, and rock on.

pam
