You have held your own quite well here. I think you have earned respect from some of the regulars.No offence taken (from me). Women are wired differently, we do need different things, yanno. When you have a fawking idiot threatening violence and lude sexual acts on a woman, dam straight we take it as abusive.
Men are better at that stuff, I will admit it. Though, I think I have stood my ground well... Threats I will not tolerate, and if I don't have to 'see' them, all the better.
