I would like to see some steps taken to not judge others as the last few posts have done. It's quite disappointing to see a member being characterized in such a way that highlights how much others are "unlike" him. It only proves the real problem is for the one who cannot handle the reflections of our community and tries to "change" that which he does not like.
It doesn't matter how people present themselves through the written word. Some will appear crass, some will appear sugary, but they are expressing themselves in ways that you have chosen not to.
We seem to all share the common goal of understanding ourselves better, and we chose this site as a place of focus to do it. But just because we each appear to have different perspectives, doesn't mean there are any "knots" to resolve or that someone suffered in the past and should consider changing behaviors. We each are interacting in ways that are stylistic to our own life paths.
Might I suggest that the differences between you and another member be cherished, instead of dragged out into the open for criticism?
