Sometimes it's a good idea to step ...Thanks Em! Sometimes it's a good idea to step back, sometimes it's a good idea to let 'em have it! ;) It all comes down to context and timing and all that jazz, and we all have to figure it out as we go along, I'm afraid. (The 'report' button is always there though!)<br /><br />There are def. a few times I regret speaking colourfully (well, as colourful as I get with my *'s!) and it's def. a balance. <br /><br />It's not just confrontations though - it's things like what JKR did. The way that's been used by politicians in America to block an equality law, and the way it's been used to slander and abuse the UK Trans kids charity Mermaids, which she didn't mention directly, but who have been spoken about and slandered using her words. Those things might not be what she did *directly*, but they are a direct result of her words. Because she has *more than* a small country following her - and doesn't have the sense of responsibility that should bring.Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-79655656848309009342020-07-05T14:58:15.850+01:002020-07-05T14:58:15.850+01:00I totally understand where you're coming from,...I totally understand where you're coming from, Cee! Loved the metaphors! Funny enough, the other day my sister and I were talking about how a local news twitter account had a lot of negative replies on one of their articles, simply because they were highlighting a new drag queen show. I wanted to lash out at the replies and use come colourful language to do so, but my sister told me to hold back because she didn't want me to get into a twitter fight with some 40 year old man. Now I can see where she was coming from, and how it kinda applies to this post. Even though I had good intentions, sometimes using the most colourful language will just anger your audience instead of teach them something new. I don't want my stage to just be full of screaming and swearing, instead, it should be a respectful conversation. paperbackprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446601964387517150noreply@blogger.com
