[quote=@NuttsnBolts] To start off, I'm really sorry to learn that you got abused when younger. So my sympathies go to you. That said, this is a reason (I never thought of) as to why people may be selective and both sexist. As you said you were wary of makes, and as much as that is a reason there are 100 more that fit this category of thinking and are not necessarily sexist. Yes it may limits one's options but there's no point in placing your personal self in an uncomfortable state just because others say that you must treat all equally. [/quote] Thank you for your thoughts, I appreciate the sentiment. With that said, I don't necessarily think that many people consider this possibility nor do I find it to be sexist. Narrow-minded, perhaps, but not sexist. I never once held hatred for the male gender and even despise those who preach that women should. In my case, I just found them a tad bit scary when I was younger and uneducated in the fact that people can be abusive regardless of gender. I should also state that I think it's a little too much of a jump to imply that people solely looking to Roleplay with one gender or another are inherently sexist (though I won't deny that the possibility could certainly exist). [quote=@Dynamo Frokane] The people in here criticizing role-play discrimination on the basis of gender in Romantic or Erotic RPs. Probably have racial, height or body type preferences in real life. [/quote] I think this is a fairly sound point to keep in mind as well. We have preferences. It happens in both real life and in Roleplay. We're [u]allowed[/u] to have them just as people are [u]allowed[/u] to dislike that we have them.
