well, if you're really that slow to have not picked up on this before then perhaps you should go warn renegade, moral & occrider. perhaps they're a little slow too.

My point precisely; that you're overtly conscious of disclosing anything about yourself. Someone who had reason to remain as such would not parade it.

but i would put you in the same category as arbiter in regards to disclosure, but i still know you're going on holiday overseas soon, have red hair and enjoy sexually assaulting family members. its not like any of us would have anything to talk about without some kind disclosure.

I'm not denying that we all have something to disclose. However, those who truly want to be secretive about themselves don't go around telling everyone.

Even so, I think Domesticated makes a fair point. Superficially, it seems unlikely that someone who genuinely wanted to preserve their privacy would so willingly draw to attention his or her own secretiveness.

And there is certainly some truth to an inference that one might draw: that I do not have as great an interest in my own privacy as I profess. But Domesticated is only looking at single variable in a more complex equation: if it were merely a question whether or not I wanted to conceal a particular piece of information about myself, my conduct here might be quite different.

It now occurs to me that if I'm going to be acknowledging my grand evil scheme, I should probably change my signature.

I can't understand how the school has any right to punish these girls for something they did outside of school, and posted on a site entirely unrelated to the school?

If the school wanted to contact their parents and make them aware of it, fine. But to punish them? Sorry, but as much as parents seem to be dropping the ball on the whole parenting thing, that doesn't give anyone else the right to pick that ball up.

I can imagine the school was in a tough situation - they are 'supposed' to show their students a good example; what is and isn't acceptable. If they didn't act against these girls in some way, it could have been perceived as the school accepting it. At the same time, it is taking it a little too far to be punishing these girls for something they did on their own time.

As for whether it was 'right' or 'wrong'... I couldn't really give a shit about what women want to do RE: their sexuality. They want to sexualize themselves and try and get attention that way, power to them.

My issue lies in the age of these girls and the fact that they likely don't understand the potential consequences of their actions. Yes, they have the right to be sexual, but are they old enough, or wise enough to realize that not everyone approves of this? That future employers may discover this and not hire them as a result? That their photos can easily become public and they could gain a lot of unwanted attention? Etc.etc.

I don't think most foolish 15/16 year old kids understand the possible outcomes of a lot of their dumbass choices. Putting yourself out there for the entire world to possibly see, and in an image that is not necessarily flattering and potentially damaging to both your character and safety, is a risk that should only be made by someone that understands these possibilities.

i dunno man. admitting "im a secretive person" after 7 years of making that fact fairly fucking obvious by not talking about yourself, and then answering a few questions that may or may not relate to said secretiveness, doesn't even make it onto my arbiter fanclub blog.

lol yeah, i get what you were saying. i guess im not sure the odd statement of information that arbiter bleeds from a stone really counts as "going around telling everyone", the public nature of forums aside.

i wouldnt mind knowing more about you too to be honest, and if you tell me you're "secretive" i promise i won't take it as an indication that you're not really

Check out my Goa and psy Trance mixes!

i just don't see what the problem is about a school wanting students who play on sports teams and REPRESENT said school (outside of school mind you, when they go on away game trips) to abide by a code of conduct whether they are in school or out of school. most extra cirricular activities at schools have A LOT of activiites outside of the school and school hours.

to me, it's no different than girl scouts or something like that. if you want to be a part of it and be chosen to represent that group/school/company, act like a mature respectable teenager. if you don't, you're off the team. this shit happens all the time. guys getting kicked off the football team because they were caught drinking at parties or even got in trouble w/ the law outside of school. the school has a right to pick who gets to represent them and who doesn't. sucking dick shaped lollipops with dollar bills hanging out of your underwear on myspace is more like representing the local strip club. they didn't kick the girls out of school for good, they just can't play sports and had to publicly apologize to their coaches for letting them down (which is exactly what they did).

what's so hard to understand about that? lol
