I'm glad you think so, but I've never said such a thing (nor would I presume to think so).

You are obviously grossly ignorant of my way of writing (and the spats that I have been involved in during my online career). I will now attempt to clue you in on something that you obviously do not have a grasp of - though I wouldn't argue that it's your fault.

I don't necessarily say things that I think are true. I say things because I believe that some people, in reading them, will be able to see things more clearly. In other words, I say things to make a point.

Me calling you an angry dyke (I'm actually a bit disappointed in juju, 'cause he didn't pick up on it when he usually does - :P) is only done because your comments can be read to fit that particular stereotype. That you are 34 and married only aids in the illustration of my point - that stereotypes are rarely correct and never appropriate.

My words did not (and do not) come from anger. I will not allow an emotion to control my communication, because it weakens any argument I am going to make. Your notion that I was being emotional is wholly incorrect. I am dry as a cracker. I may sound emotional, but I (and others) can assure you, I am not. Sorry, but the joke's on you.

Take a minute and think about why I have written the words that I have. Try to look at them without emotion - as something other than an attack on you, which you have seemingly interpreted them as. I submit that it will be easier for you to understand when you look at them in that manner.

My point still stands - stereotypes are rarely correct and always inappropriate. I'm sorry you missed it the first and second times around. Hopefully this has made it a little more clear.
