Obviously, bullying can be horrific, but I get the impression a lot of people use it as a mental crutch. Some people continue to be cunts, but if someone acts, or once acted, like a cunt, there's no reason to shut down all communication barriers.

At least I think that's what he's getting at.

Yeah, one of the things that irritated me about him is that he seems to base the entire psychological tapestry of homosexual men on their relationship with masculinity alone, which seems to me important but incomplete, considering that - taken away the feeding of mutual insecurities that is the fag hag/sterotypical gay man friendship- there is a whole world to explore about the interaction between females and male homosexuals. This is not even getting into female homosexuality itself, which is never discussed enough.
