For the record I am definitely guilty of:

• Posting about politics (often)
• Using profanity
• Getting in heated (even hateful) arguments
• Talking in depth about dirty/explicit sexual topics for entertainment. However I do much less of that nowadays.

But I remember first posting on GAG literally 14 years ago. Back then it really was more focused about dating and romance issues. Never posted about politics or anything unrelated outside men and women interacting.

I was also more open back then. This included admitting difficult (and embarrassing issues). Insecurities I was struggling with. But nowadays I’m rarely if ever that open. Reason being I am usually not in the mood to get blasted by some idiot troll.

Anyway I got in a real heated argument with one person on GAG yesterday. She unnecessarily hit a very deep nerve with me at the wrong moment. I responded back with sheer vitriol and wished the worst on here (which I later recanted). It wasn’t productive for anyone either way. Not good for her. Not good for me. Not good for anybody who read it.

However that made think harder. What if there was version of GAG that:

• Didn’t allow any slurs, labels, insults, explicit profanity. You can still post it but it the word will immediately get censored.
• Only focused on relationship issues
• Would only allow a PG version of sexual issues
• Wouldn’t allow any postings/opinions about politics (no matter where you stand).
  
  

Sure it sounds really boring and dull at first. But I can’t help but wonder how many people give up on this website at some point. Especially women. Or how many people come here just to “ventilate” vitriol. Or how many people come here for “talk” porn.

What about people who just want to post honest questions and get honest (respectful) responses. A respectful response isn’t always what you want to hear but what you NEED to hear. The difference is knowing the poster really wants to help you vs. enjoying throwing shade.

Suzie Chopstick sued Herbert Frankle claiming he raped her 28 years ago. She followed him into dressing room as part of her job. He says he doesn't know this woman. There's not much evidence... he said she said.

"... Suzie recalled she was probably flirting with Herbert the whole time (while working) before the alleged assault, not thinking it was intimate or serious.

When the two made their way to the lingerie department, Suzie said the “comedy was escalating” but it never occurred to her that Herbert might try to rape her.

Zeroing in on a sheer gray bodysuit, Herbert told Suzie to try it on, she said. She jokingly told him he should try it on instead.

Suzie had no intention to try on the lingerie, she testified Wednesday, but followed Herbert's gesture into the dressing room thinking the moment could be a funny “Saturday Night Live” sketch."

...

The jury in the matter concluded there was a sexual assault, not rape...28 years ago.

Mr. Frankle when asked, denied he even knew her... sparking a defamation lawsuit.

...

Judge in 2nd trial agreed... awarded her $85 million...

Question: Many women ( and men) have been assaulted [women in the military as example] ... and far more impactful emotionally and life degraded. They receive little

should she share with others... once collected?

* Names changed because I don't want to be sued either...
