I said I was sorry for taking us off topic. I didn’t think my post would affect the course of the thread. I was just responding to Jason’s post about being repulsed by the Stan seduction scenes.

I didn’t anticipate people being insulted by the fact that I was disgusted by certain scenes in certain episodes of Lexx (and it’s not just Lomea, that thing with the violent sex website thing at the end of P4X really made me cringe, and they showed WAY too much in that shower scene). I didn’t say the episodes were bad. I thought maybe somebody would say like “yeah, I thought that was gross, to” but nothing major.

And I never said my morality was superior to others’. I’m sure many of the people reading this have ethics similar to mine. And that post had nothing to do with ethics. Stop trying to read into these things. It’s getting ridiculous.


I left all of that intact because I wanted to address several points simultaneously. Jason’s post was germaine to the topic at hand (licking). You replied, essentially, that you were surprised that Jason *only* found Stan’s seduction scenes that cringe-worthy (and your comment implied that there was something wrong in not finding the scenes you then mentioned repugnant). In doing so, you brought up specifically (and irrelevantly, I might add) that the most cringe-inducing scenes for you involved Lomea, and went into specific detail reagarding the homoerotic scene between Lomea and Lyekka, emphasizing that this scene was especially repugnant. You even emphasized that it was the homoerotic aspect of it that especially bothered you when you made reference to hoping that Lyekka would act like “a nice heterosexual plant.” I don’t think it’s reading too much into anything to say that your comments were indicative of homophobia (I’m not denying that you find *all* sexuality bothersome, but saying that homosexuality in particular seems to trouble you more than “straight” sexuality).
And you don’t have to come out and blatantly say that you find your own personal morality superior to others’. It’s obvious in your tone, in your syntax, and in the points you continually make. The fact that you are oblivious to the offensive and insulting remarks you make does not let you off the hook. The fact that you refuse to acknowledge these remarks and take steps to avoid being offensive and insulting is both damning and troubling. It indicates a deep sense of self-absorption and overblown sense of self-importance.
Yes, DT, it is getting ridiculous. The more you expose of yourself, the more ridiculous you appear.
