Lem says what she says and does what she does. I have zero interest in arguing about whether a label that Honor slapped on her conduct applies. I’ve been in hundreds of those types of conversations, and I’ve never found them to be productive. More often than not, they’ve been counter productive. And given the history of completely dysfunctional communication between Lem and me, I’d be crazy to get anywhere near a discussion of that nature.
So, my answer is that I object to relevance of Honor’s claim. I’m not going to comment on the substance claim because I’m not going address an issue that I feel is unproductive. Lem is a fully functioning adult. She is responsible for her conduct. If I choose to respond to her conduct, I am responsible for how I respond. Slapping a label on Lem’s conduct has no relevance to how I choose to respond.
I don't see that honor slapped a label on Lem's conduct. I saw a poster making an assertion
about her conduct.
She acts like an asshole. Further, I saw a poster attempt to address her asshole to asshole, probably in an attempt to validate his claim for which he has supplied no evidence in kind of a
hey hey, we're both assholes, amirite? way.
Not only that, honor blows in and asserts that she acts like an asshole, after a grueling discussion/debate that has been nearly 2 weeks in the making because he's reviewed these threads without ever making mention of (much less putting it on the table here) the thread of origin which was Terrestrial or how that nearly 2 week discussion evolved (What was she responding to when he thought she acted like an asshole?) and basically claims she got what she deserved because she acts like an asshole. Why didn't he just come out and call her a bitch? Too sexist?
by the way, here is how Lem (the one who acts like an asshole) resolved the initial conflict with the male poster who slung a sexist slur her way as a rhetorical device.

Thank you, Doc.
Lem,
I’m sorry for what I said. I was having a frustrating day in the real world, was oversensitive, and wrongly made an offensive comment. Thank you for calling me out on it and for explaining in detail why it was offensive.
Sincerely,
Roger

Jersey Girl said I should read your last post, which I had not done before now.
Thank you. I apologize also for not more appropriately explaining my initial perception re: your comment about the missionary stats.
So. Analytics apologizes for and explains his motivations for making the sexist remark. Lem (still acting like an asshole
) offers that she could have handled it in a different way.
So.
So what exactly is honor's motivation for making his assertion on the heels of nearly 2 weeks worth of discussion that included posters:
Who were on top of the situation from the get go.
Posters who showed up late and didn't bother to examine the history.
Posters who showed up and apparently just wanted to blathered about what they didn't know or care about.
At least one poster who requested a list of phrases not to use.
Same poster refusing to engage while crying victim.
What function did the assertion serve, who profited from that and also his analysis of
Lem as asshole poor deeply troubled creature that she is when the matter was already put to rest civilly, no assholishness perpetrated on the community at large, with everyone tucked safely away in their non-blood stained beds?
Shrugging again. Trying to figure out when truth becomes relevant.
Shout out to Molok: Hey! I'm still being an asshole!
You can't make this crap up. You seriously cannot.
