It is normal I'm sick of internet activists?

  • You act like a zealot that changes the world thru phone sex. Assisting pathetic men with fantasies so they can shoot their sperm. Actually, you're so damn insignificant that they hang up on you. Nobody has had less impact on the world than you have.

    • I've only been doing phone sex for about 5 years and don't delude myself that it's changing the world: it does however keep a roof over my head which I couldn't afford otherwise, which is the only reason I do it. They don't all hang up on me by the way, I also have regular callers who've been calling me for years and never hang up without thanking me. The behavior of the rude ones is a reflection on them, not on me.

      I have however been an activist since the early 70's, I have contributed to positive change in the world and continue to do so. What's your contribution to positive social change?

      • I promote international peace through balanced military power. The weapon systems I have created are hard to preemptively destroy which assures destruction of anyone that takes the first shot.

        I am also active with "Bed nets for Africa". Malaria kills more people each year than most wars.

        The world is a better place because of my efforts. How about you?

        • YOU have created weapons systems which guarantee world peace? Really? obviously not in use yet ....

          Bed nets sounds like a great idea: what does "active" mean in your case?

          I helped establish the first two women's refuges in my state; helped establish an independent refuge referral service to enable women in danger to call only one phone number for help; I've worked on campaigns for women's reproduction rights; for lesbian mothers to have equal custody rights with heterosexuals; for changes to the family law act; for funding for community legal centres; for Aboriginal Land Rights; against the expansion of uranium mining and against the destruction of old growth forests. I also worked (unpaid) for a few years in a remote Aboriginal community, including making my own home available as a refuge for women & children fleeing violence; advocating for Aboriginal people with local white bureaucracy, social security etc. There's probably more but I can't be bothered trying to remember ... I'm old and tired and not well BUT still an activist, just a slower one

      • I've always wanted to be a phone sex operator. Seriously. Do you make enough cash to support yourself?

    • That's harsh criticism and sounds judgemental. She is just doing a job to earn a living and keep a roof over head. So what if she works on a phone sex line?
