Now that we all made our (justified) anger known... there's an apology from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shahar81 and I thought it would only be fair to translate it as well maybe without comment, since, if I'm not mistaken, some of the commenters were English speaking.
Well. An apology. Okay, fair enough.
But... correct me if I'm wrong (I mean it, please do) but does this say that the problem wasn't that her thing was clearly homophobe and hypocritical (and not too mention potentially hurtful to people concerned in her diatribe - does anyone see her apologizing for being wrong, instead of accusing us of reading her wrong?) but that we misunderstood her?
Mh.
*makes contemplative face
*still contemplating it
*hasn't stopped contemplating it
*isn't quite finished contemplating it
Okay. Am I the only one who still has that above mentioned nasty taste in her mouth?
On a side note:arielen posted an older article (she said it's from1998) on sexual orientation in fantasy that's a little outdated but still well worth reading, seeing as it's well-phrased and logical. Unfortunately, it's in German and a trifle too long to translate (but take it from me, it really is much more logical than... that other thing). Sorry, guys :S

shahar81 and I thought it would only be fair to translate it as well Offenbar ist ein Beitrag den ich kürzlich geschrieben hatte, einigen sauer aufgestoßen. Das mag daran liegen, dass ich mich wohl recht unglücklich ausgedrückt habe und somit vollkommen missverstanden wurde.
Damit es keinerlei weitere Missverständisse gibt, habe ich ihn gelöscht.
Es lag mir fern, ein gewisses Bild zu zu einigen Themen, Personen, Einstellungen, "Meinungen" und sonstigem, was damit zusammenhängt, zu erzeugen und es tut mir leid, wenn es eben daher von einigen falsch aufgenommen und aufgefasst wurde.
Apparently a post I recently wrote left a nasty taste in some people's mouth. That might have been because I may have expressed myself awkwardly and was misunderstood completely. I deleted it so that there will be no further misunderstandings.
Far be it from me to draw a certain picture regarding some topics, people, mind sets, "opinions" and everything connected with it and I'm sorry that because of this some people conceived it incorrectly.
Well. An apology. Okay, fair enough.
