I personally don't find it offensive, but I certainly don't think it was a suitable comment for a public forum.
I don't think Taki has confirmed whether he said it because he thinks it should be the wrong place for that type of post or because he knew what kind of over the top reaction the minority of prudes would give. If it's the latter then merely being respectful to those prudes doesn't necessarily mean he thinks they're in the right.Ovi wrote:I think Taki's reply shows that even those not offended realised it is not the right place to make that kind of post.
So you supress the minority? Less playing nazi Xest. They didnt like the comment, then people drive it too far to make a point. You fail to recognize's it is not an majority/minority issue, nor about what you find right or wrong. It's about people beeing insulted/not like the comment and asking if you could please leave it next time. To continue the discussion the way you did, is like a little child laughing nananana you cant stop me.Xest wrote:But it's not that clear cut is it? The majority apparently don't find it offensive but instead find it humorous, it's the minority finding it offensive.
Bingo!!!... at least someone got it!Satyn wrote:i might be totally off here so correct me if i'm wrong Taki. But i think Taki's comment was made in jest.

Next time try to work it out, or better yet, just leave the subject. It doesnt harm you "not" to say pussy or any adult matter. You're trying to discuss the freedom of speech (fail to see why), what you should discuss is beeing polite to eachother.
while they are entitled to their view... I am equally entitled to mine! and yes it was more about knowing that people would overreact.Xest wrote:I don't think Taki has confirmed whether he said it because he thinks it should be the wrong place for that type of post or because he knew what kind of over the top reaction the minority of prudes would give.
