We have had some very difficult times

[boston bean]

in the group where we have been maligned, attacked as a group and personally, and stalked around.

We have also have very many great times together, and we have mended many fences from some of the old wars. All of us, not just those in the group, have battle scars that are deep and in some cases still healing.

Seems as though some are offering olive branches, as I have done in the past myself. I am always ready to move forward and work and speak and be kind to all who share the goals that feminism hopes to achieve. That doesn't mean I will agree with everyone, but I would like to have more conversation where it didn't turn into, well... way back when and remember and you are this and you are that....

So, with that in mind, I am always ready and always pleased to let bygones be bygones. And I once again apologize for any hard feelings I may have caused or where I have hurt anyone.

Doesn't mean I'm gonna stop pointing out sexist and misogynistic remarks I find here on DU, and discuss issues from a feminist POV. But I am way more than ready to move the hell forward!

So, let's rock on!
