Right. My mistake. I would willing to acknowledge Scy as not a hypocrite if she was willing to acknowledge that E and other anarchists in Grafton are undertaking actions which by her standards ought to be considered immoral. Likewise, that applies to New Harumf.
Your deliberate intermingling of pronouns greatly offends me, and convinces me you are nothing but a homophobic jerk. You can make your points without attempts at backhanded insults.
Scy is transsexual. She has previously stated, when I asked, that she would appreciate being referred to as "she". If I have failed to do so in certain places, I apologize, that was an oversight. I would not refer to a gay man as "she" and I would not refer to a draq queen as "she" - I would refer to a transsexual as "she" if that was the pronoun she preferred. Seeing as Scy did not object to my use of pronouns, I don't see what the problem is.

Further I am not going to appeal to the "some of my best friends are gay" stuff - that's actually true, but whatever. I just find the accusation of homophobia utterly laughable.

It was the intermingling I found offensive, using both "he" and "she" to describe the same person. If it was in error on your part, then I appologize for my comments.

I didn't intermingle pronouns in the quoted post and the only time I used "he" to describe Scythirus was in my first post in the thread.

Considering that Scy is explicitly supporting E (whom I am not accusing of hypocrisy, again) and has previously described herself on his blog as an anarcho-capitalist, or more specifically "The Angry Tranny Libertarian Anarcho-Capitalist", my point still stands.

I believe these are mixed pronouns.
