Jun. 2nd, 2005 09:23 pmI ordinarily welcome anonymous replies to my lj, because of people who cannot or will not respond, for whatever reason. I often learn much from people who do not feel safe communicating with me in person, by using this medium. I have been thoughtfully taught many lessons by people who know and care enough to throw stones and nerf balls to help me grow and become aware.
So, O Muse and Fury, what do you have to teach me? It's obvious that you have an axe to grind, because of your statement that "[my] particular brand of Patriarcial Man-Over is what has fucked the world so royally", and that the "only way out is to knock off the John Wayne Samari crap and be GENUINE," and, "[h]aving said that I personally believe the Modern American Man is incapable of doing so". Hmmm. I don't expect anyone else but myself to believe in my honor, and not everyone in my life is a damsel in distress, and many of the women (and men) in my life are companions. I do believe that no one should ever be stranded, and we should all help each other out when needed, when we can. I define genuineness as being authentic and sincere, and, had you done more that 'peeked' and actually read this journal closely, it would have been obvious that that is what I am striving to do, contrasting your opinion of male incapability.
You are correct that I did not know who you were, then. I believed you were someone else. I was referring to the other anonymous poster (who I am fairly sure I know who she is) and gently validating her presence in both her and my learning, to others on my list who were concerned with the tone and content, and context of the situation.
Your motivation to post, being "[I] broke the heart of someone I DO care about, and moreso, that ritual disagreement led to the loss of my spiritual community", I am very curious about. I was unaware that I am responsible for your spiritual community, and also unaware that the person whose heart I broke required your intervention. Have you asked that particular person if this is what she wants? Perhaps you should communicate with her.
I continue to welcome anonymous posts. *bow*
Peace,
Grim
