No, I am *Not* Crazy

No, I am *Not* Crazy

Despite what I claim in my profile headline...

So, this starts with another IM story. I did transcribe one once into here, but it's such a pain in the ass that I'll just tell you what happened.

I don't remember the guy's name and it's pretty immaterial at this point because this is something I've come across before. I usually have my IM on if the chat room is slow. I kind of like the IM because I can immediately screen out the ones I know are going to be dickwads. If they send me an offensive IM, or if there is something in their profile that immediately turns me off, I don't have to talk to them.

However, some of them sneak in and it's always a learning experience. This guy seemed ok at first...a bit of innocuous chat. Then he sent a pic. I should know better, I really should...but it was late, I'd had a drink and my brain was a little sluggish.

I opened the photo to find a full body headless man. He was thin, but not skinny...with that wiry musculature that speaks of someone working in hard manual labor, not a gym and protein shakes. He was gripping...like a club...his very large erect penis. Honestly, I was more startled than offended (I'm starting to get immune to that on here). It was the aggression in the photo that disturbed me.

I immediately responded with "Geez, you could have warned me." He informed me that I was the first woman who had responded like that...everyone else had liked it just fine. Instead of a rebuttal with the first thought that came into my brain, I told him that, the same as in real life, I prefer to know someone pretty well before being introduced to his dick.

What I really wanted to say is "BULLSHIT." And the awesome thing is that I found something on this website that backs this up.

I don't know how many of you read the community blog, but it can be pretty interesting. I know a lot of people in the chat room I hang in (MD/VA) bitch about how they don't like certain features, or how stuff doesn't work right, but they do have ways for us to provide feedback, and the community blog is one of them. From time to time, I will skim that blog to see what is going on and what plans they have for changes.

One night I found 56 of Active Women Have Their Content Filter Turned On and I found a kind of vindication for every time I've bitched about some uninvited dufus sticking his private parts in my face. I am not alone in thinking, "I don't want to see it, so put it away."

I don't have time to go back and find that old post where I talked about turning on my content filter...maybe I did say that I was offended. But, thinking about it now, I don't think it's as much that as I feel...a lack of respect, I suppose. I have nothing against nudity and under the right circumstances, it can be a turn-on.

Bodies are bodies and nobody came into this world with clothing on, so there is nothing inherently dirty or disgusting about nudity. That being said, there is a right time and a wrong time for displaying it. Assuming that a woman you've just met in chat is interested in seeing *your* private parts without asking first illustrates that you've made a judgment about her. Which is pretty amazing...and not in a good way.

Anyway, back to my IM conversation... It became pretty clear that he was looking for insta-hookup. He concluded by throwing out the name of a traditional dating site, which I will not spell out as I'm not sure I'm supposed to post that in the blog (initials of the site are "EH"). This caused me to close the chat window abruptly...LOL.

Yeah, yeah...talk to the hand.

hahaha apparently he is quite adept at talking to his own hand:
"He was gripping...like a club...his very large erect penis."


that's likely all he "talks" to
