This post needed quoting one more time.
Cmon Shint... I think what you fail to realize is the soapbox you're on. I commend you for your efforts on living what you feel is a wholesome life but you are seriously stepping on some toes here. There is absolutely no way that you can look down at someone without walking a mile in their shoes. I do think its a shame that some people get caught in the lifestyle they do sometimes, but its not always their fault. Circumstances are funny, man. First off, I don't think you can lump stripping, drinking, drugging, ganging and banging all in one category. When I drink, I certainly don't do it with the intention of hurting anybody or destroying a life. I always take a cab and drink enough so that I can't get it up. The only thing hurting is my bank account and my ego at times. I can honestly say that myself and my group of buddies are some of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Any one of us would give the clothes off our back to a complete stranger. Thats more than I can say for a lot of back row baptists I've had the pleasure of meeting. I've met and gotten to know so many great people at the bar, and have supported the local economy very generously. Hey, you might not approve but to discount my purpose as a man is very offensive. I suppose there could be a lot of reasons you feel the way you do and perhaps you'd like to share them. The way we all see it now is a sheltered little smart a$$ that just learned to spell the "f" word is coming at a bunch of guys with more experience in life than you. You mentioned escaping reality... you know what?, some of us wanna escape layoffs, broken homes, divorce, tragedy, resonant cabinets, and over priced speaker cables and we all take our path and pace to do it. On the other hand, sometimes we just want to enjoy something that isn't the everyday grind. It might not always be the best, most "moral" way to do it but the need still needs satisfying. There's going to come a day when you test your own moral limits just to grow up a bit and there's nothing wrong with that. It can be a slippery slope, but for some, that needs to be experienced. I only know a handful of guys here beyond cyberspace and have gotten to know SEVERAL ones here pretty well and all in all its a solid group of guys. I'd actually challenge you to find another online community this strong in numbers with better people than you're likely to meet here. You seriously have no reason to attack us, our opinions, and our situations in the manner that you have.
