But it is hard to know how much her words were misquoted or misused, as that seems to be par for the course for most "journalists." Aside from the itching for sex comment, however, I didn't think the article was at all vulgar, and I think some people are overreacting. I wonder how much of that is our own desire and inability to speak freely about this subject.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17453551055054412289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573523428291334692.post-64112945169988883762011-01-27T18:58:54.672-08:002011-01-27T18:58:54.672-08:00I completely missed the call for participants...I ...I completely missed the call for participants...I vaguely remember something in my spam folder or that I tossed out of my mailbox, but I couldn't say it was for this article. I haven't read it, only reactions, and I have to say that I a) suspect the Marie Claire "writer" took some liberties with things that were actually said, AND b) I think the clergywoman in question was both brave and stupid. To be careful in how you word things, or in the level of disclosure you choose to participate in, is a good thing and, particularly on this topic, could really have furthered a conversation that seriously needs to happen. Instead I think people are hung up on how much she shared and how vulgarly that's been written, and how inappropriate that is, when we should be focusing on the TOPIC itself.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10838436991138846332noreply@blogger.com
