I respect anyone with weird ideas because it tells me they are thinking outside the square - something I was taught and encouraged to do at a very early age. I've been married to a clinical phsycologist for 47 years, have two very strong willed daughters and 3 up and coming very strong willed grand daughters so I have the greatest of respect for the opposite sex.
I try to be civil with my posts with a dash of humour where possible, but if someone wants to keep provoking me then he can wear my ugly side and its consequences. Although we may have our different POVs , I have respect for posters like
@pintohoo who is always ready to back his stances with fact, acute observations and common sense - despite our differences I regard him as a very intelligent person and one who I would gladly share a few hours over a beer or cup of coffee. Without ''pissing in your pocket'' (sorry for the brusque vernacular) I would happily regard you the same way as I would happily regard many other posters.
After 3 score and 10 years on this earth I can't see too many people changing the way I do things
Just be careful when you try and wrestle a pig in the mud - the pig will usually enjoy it
