I'm going to answer Lisnaholics post from the "Spill your guts thread" in here, so as not to get off the main objective of that thread.

That being said Lisnaholic, you made very valid points in your response to my opinion. All of them are respectable charactoristics. Of course the cancer comparison is a circumstance of which I agree with you. So maybe in that essence I live by a double standard to some degree because I would not have the heart in that situation to say those things either...I dont think. A multitude of things develop a persons attitude and train of thought. Sympathy for adults of sound mind and body is not one of my strong points. Part of this is due in part to up bringing and just overall life experiences that I wont elaborate on. The older I get the less time I have for beating around the bush to make a point to people. I think people are babied way to much and have way to thin of skin now days. For example, if a woman asks me if a pair of jeans make her butt look big and the truth is that they do...I'm going to tell her that. I'm not going to go along with the unspoken rule is that you say "no honey those look great on you" just to be considerate. I would expect nothing less in return and hold no ill feelings if it were me. In fact if i write a song and play it for someone, I dont want nice answers I want the truth. If it sucks then it sucks and if my singing is off key and lacks in a certain area then tell me. If my guitar playing is not up to par for that particular song, then tell me. Im not going to whine sniffle and cry my way home like a 3 year old, cause more than likely your going to say what you really think to someone else when I'm not around so just come on out and tell me. Sadly its been my experience that people for whatever reason do not like to hear the truth and would just rather people sugar coat things for them so they can maintain some level of security or confidence in themselves. I dont know how many times I've seen the best of friends talk about the other one in a very critical judgmental way when they are not around the other. Only to turn around and pretend to be the best of friends again when around each other. This type of behavior is nothing less than shady, pretentious, hypocritical im scared to say anything to your face cause I'm scared of confrontation b.s imo. And I can not conform my train of thought to this way of thinking and behavior. Again i'm not trying to win people over to the way I view things cause thats obviously an impossible feat. I just dont know why people are so sensitive about truths being spoken and why every little thing thats said in todays society has to be under a micrscope for fear of being offensive. But thats just my opinion and counts for nothing really. Also im not implying that some of the things I've mentioned above is how you yourself are, but it the way the vast majority of people are that I've observed in my time.
