It's people liek this that cause the world of multiples to never be seen for what it truly is

(btw, for those of you who don't know me (pretty much everyone) I'm a non-multiple whose SO is a member of a multiple system)

EDIT:

The purpose of me posting this was not to bash one specific person for their belief on how they should treat my SO. This is jsut the first example I've gotten that is in WRITING of the way so many people think that a few pamphlets, a couple documentaries, and maybe a book or two and they're geniuses on the topic. They're the ones who don't see that whether someone is faking the "disorder" or not, it is often a defense mechanism, not something for purely attention. Even if it IS for attention, maybe teh person believes that surrounding themselves with a large number of peopel on the outside will protect them.

*smiles* Hey, thanks! LOL, actually I'm not the 'calm one' in debate; I tend to be a hot-head... fortunately, when writing I've got my faithful bro here pointing out every time I'm inaccurate or overly-inflammatory. Not that he's not pretty inflammatory himself when he gets in the mood; he's just a lot more subtle about it.

*smirks* Well at least you have one to metaphorically keep you in check. *giggles* I have no such person really and have gotten myself in more than one situation in debates that ended up being somewhat heated arguments. It happens.

*wry grin* Well, he tries, anyway. LOL, he's been trying since I was in nursery school and about to get myself in big trouble with a teacher by answering a question honestly but untactfully. "Do not say that", he told me, the first words I ever heard from him.

In the past 43 years he's said those words a bunch more times - sometimes I listen, sometimes I don't. He's usually right, though. For years he's disapproved of my online battles, but I notice that since he got online himself this year, he's had a few pretty good ones of his own. It's hard to avoid, I guess, the Net being what it is.

I still disapprove, but you are right; sometimes it is hard to avoid.

[whispersong.livejournal.com]

yes sometimes it is hard to avoid I agree. Hehe don't worry, My Housemates sometimes disapprove of My words too. Least they don't try to censor Me though. :)
