.. because I think this might have reached a stage where the entire forum deserves an explanation.
My private life is about as interesting as a sack of potatoes, and I'm comfy with that. If any label should fit, "closet heterosexual" would likely cover it. "Closet", because I can't provide evidence of any significant romantic activity for the past 10 years... apart from a few wholehearted efforts to stay OUT of such - without causing damage. Which I think is very kind of me, and proves I have a big heart in spite of lacking attachment.
I have sinned, though, rest assured. In my young days I did, on occasion, kiss frogs of both genders. Until one day, one of them turned into a prince. As Traveller puts it: These things happen. I was 23 at the time and the event was a personal revelation and turning point. It sent me head over heels into a several years long relationship. And I never looked back.
But I don't suffer from amnesia, heaven forbid. Experience shape attitudes over the span of a lifetime, and Lonnit smelled a rat when I commented on a few pics some challenges back.
So she set forth to smoke me out - with dubious results in MY view, but heaven knows how others may have interpreted it all. I played along, from the comfort of my chair in far-away-land. Perhaps I shouldn't have. I had fun, but I do apologize to anyone who might have taken offense. My cursed sense of humor has brought me both friends and enemies over the years, but I mostly
try to do the right thing at least. So there.
And NOW you are enlightened
