Since I agreed never to post about this again and I just saw this, here: http://feministing.com/archives/008698.html. Okay, that's it.
Ms Miller,
James Poulos and me are made enemies. We are not both doctoral candidates. I happen to be an undergraduate even though I am 30. I respect your opinion, and if we have a difference of opinion I do not expect you to concede out of some concern between me and James. In fact, we don't even know each other. My motives are purely for young women. I just want to have an honest debate about where responsibility lies, and I not trying to accuse anybody of anything. Thanks for the sentiment nonetheless. I truly like your blog, and it disturbed me that we were arguing the same point but coming to different conclusions. I didn't blame you or anything, I just wanted to understand. I truly hope this clarifies things.
Flg, that was a joke about you and James. I really didn't write the post out of concern that you guys wouldn't chat in the student lounge. I think we're still arguing a different point, but I'm willing to let bygones be bygones.
But I am sorry for giving you such a hard time. I'm a jerk in real life too if it makes you feel any better.
First, I don't think you are a jerk. My posts often offend people so it would be hypocritical of me to accuse you of being a jerk when I never mean to be. I usually chalk up misunderstandings to my own writing abilities. And I think that is the root of the problem here.

Second, acknowledging that I am not a rapist is kinda like saying I am not a serial killer. Nevertheless, I understand what you you mean. You did say sorry. Lastly, I am going to take you up on your free drink offer at happy hour if it is still open. Email me when and where. I guarantee that I am not super-creepy. Or at least nobody has ever told me that I am the least bit creepy. << Home Archives December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 October 2008 December 2008 |
