356. and it is shamefully irresponsible to feel gossip that women on du would advocate starving boys.

Wed Apr 3, 2013, 08:46 AM

Apr 2013

every man that is now in this subthread and the man that started this petty gossip to get a dig at a group is disgusting to spread a rumor that anyone on du advocates, or CHEERS little boys starving. you and others may think it is such a cleverly cute game, like another that joined the little obnoxious group. but as a mom of two boys, who stand strongly behind all of who they are, i am disgusted watching adults giggling like the have a fuckin gotcha moment.

i get there are a couple men, or one i know, that scours all parts of a blog, if our group links to an article so he can then cry outrage. he has done it enough. i never thought i had to follow every link, read ever comment, follow links to link, google every name on a link and learn their life history, before i could print a damn article.

but for you men to now promote ANYONE on du would cheer boys starving, as i watch you all line up...

fuck that shit.
