People, Isn't this forum an exchange of opinions and discussions on various topics? Questions and answers and information added, and help provided when possible mostly on Egypt and Egyptian related topics? I believe that is the main purpose. As a member here, I'm asking all could we keep it that way, as much as we can?
Regardless of whom has attacked whom first in the past, or on any thread, can we call it a wrap please?
I really wish that the attacks would stop on all threads... Attacks against me, against you all, and against the others on other threads. It would be much kinder.
Personally, I promise I will not attack ANYONE EVER...not even my attackers of the past...
In case the need for attack comes up for a reason or another, maybe you could use this thread only...so whomever wants a little 'attack game' for the day, could come here directly...and to make it even more interesting, maybe not use member names, and leave it up to the reader to guess who is being attacked, how about that?
Thanks.

Monica, In hindsight, of course it would be great if people stop attacking people with such vigour. However, when the knives come out, I am talking from past experience from this forum, must the people just roll over and play dead, and not have the right to defend themselves, especially when a whole gang of females who are friends with each other on this forum and they have bonded, do you think it is right for the whole clan to go for the jagular and gang up on them, because every person is unique in there own special way. Maybe we are not perfect, but we strife. Do you think it is nice to belittle them with innuendos. We are mere mortals and we do have feelings! I do believe you are a good kind person, but sometimes I feel your puritanical views are very rigid in your approach to judgeing people, thus, the cycle of different views. I believe that we must all be tolerant to people who do not think or have the same moral standing. Remember it takes many people to make this wonderful world we live in. I would expect with your line of work that you would be the most tolerant person, because of what you are exposed to on a daily basis in your working life. I respect and understand you come from a very loving family and that your folks set a good example to you, that you apply to your everyday interactions with people. My personal opinion, not that, that is important to you, however, we are all not cut from the same cloth. I only become defensive when I feel I have been unfairly attacked. On the whole, I hate discord, and am happiest when all get along. Dreamcatcher

I agree, that we should be more tolerant towards one another, even if we can't see eye to eye. That was the purpose of this thread, and I did include myself.
I can't change my views though when it comes to:
1- prostitution/male and female/gigolo syndrome 2- adultery/infidelity 3- child abuse/molestation 4- sexual abuse/rape 5- pedophilia 5- theft 6- illegalities 7- other crimes
I will try to be much more diplomatic in expressing these views in the future.
Cheers!

Monica, Hello, I would never expect you to change your views on some of the topics you listed. I am for total zero tolerance on 1 Child molestation/child abuse/pedophilla/I believe harsh sentencing should be applied to these henious crimes to protect our most vunerable, our children. 2 Abuse against woman/children/elderly 3 Abuse against animals 4 Rape both Male and female 5 Any crimes committed against humanity 6 Theft etc 7 Drug Lords/harsh sentecing/zero tolerance.
This thread was not about the terrible evils that people commit against each other. This thread from what I could gather was about people on this forum treating each other with diginity and decorum.
Unfortunately there will always be prostitutes, because there is always going to be a market for them, the perpetrators are men, so why does the woman always get the blame, most times it is a drug lord behind the girls who are forced into prostitution, where are those girls rights to diginity? I could never make a sweeping statement to state my views will not change on prostitution. My heart goes out to these woman, they all have a story to tell, often times, they were abused as children, thus rendering them to feelings of no self worth, low self esteem, so yes, I have compassion for all the prostitutes in this world. I do not think it is a chosen proffession that these people take on lightly. Dreamcatcher

On reading these posts, I would also like to mention that as much as 'attacks' should be avoided, we should also take heed as not to insult or offend others. Topics such as class, race, religion etc..they must be tread upon very carefully - I also think that if we are going to look at 'attacks' we must also look at the attacks going on against one's religion, race and so-called 'social class' as well as the unnecessary F* and MF* language.
Cheers!

Ahmed, Why do you think that women only attack men? They attack each other too. That's life.
