You know it wasn't me; I am not anonymous with my comments -neither are you -so thats not on -but for the record your comments to me were pretty rude you know - -taking my comments about wreckpats (meaning a particular breed of older guy,seedy, dissolute and unable to function in previous relationships ;washed up in HK with nowhere left to go and ready to delude themselves that they are actually attractive of themselves to a young Asian woman looking for a financially beneficial lifestyle) personally and then inferring I had a personal axe to grind -thats pretty gloves off actually and I am a hard player myself FYI so... I am interested in the mentality of men who speak about any women in terms like that - commodities to be' traded in 'hmm this does not reflect a particularly mature or balanced attitude,in fact a dead giveaway and somewhat of a liability in any relationship -which of course may have paid havoc with earlier relationships with women of their own culture-but whatever-educated Western women may indeed look askance at a few 'hookups 'we see here -its true that one gets what one settles for in these matters...and women seem to be choosier than their male counterparts-hats off if to those in a healthy relationship and all but don't presume to judge others by your own standards...i would suggest that you did in fact stir up some woman who thought the same way-who chose to respond anonymously.Which if you want to debate this further i suggest we do -offline PM other readers are all sick of it but you had this lot above coming and you know it...

MissP - if you really teach English/Shakespeare etc then I despair of your students.
PARAGRAPHS are most helpful to separate the lines of diatribe so that they are easier to digest.
As to the content of the post - I have absolutely no idea what that is all about.
And as for typhoons - the next one will hit (somewhere) in approx 1 week. Which is the day I am hosting a scrabble meetup on our boat (and happens to be a public holiday for those looking for an extra day off). So I REALLY want it to go somewhere else!
re paragraphs - reread my posts on being' off duty'
I don't feel like punctuating so I'm not -deal with it. Or not .I could care less. My teaching history is not your area of expertise or concern -you want to be mealymouthed with me you can take it outside with me too - ie-PM - next misogynist ? bring it on ....but NB I play hard...
Diatribe not directed to you -have suggested it be taken outside-wasn't prepared to make it anonymous -game now over suggest we move onto Typhoons.
