Have you ever been curious about trying gayness with another man?

No. I have never felt that way inclined whatsoever. I did feel somewhat complimented when I was propositioned by a gay man when I was a teen, but its not something that attracts me in any way whatsoever and he went off in a huff when he realised he was not going to get anywhere.

I like the nude human form so long as it is artistically lit and subtle. However, I am not attracted to pornography or anything blatently sexual like that. I have seen some pornography, but I don't seek it out and I find it somewhat repugnant.

That was pretty funny. Don't worry about those nasty people. They haven't discovered your "charm".
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

Nah, I don't worry about nasty people. I worry about nice people.

Why do you worry about nice people?

Because I often find it difficult to imagine why they would be nice to me. So I often assume they are either being nice to me at face value and in reality dislike me, or that they are simply being polite rather than truthful because they do not wish to hurt a person as disappointing as they find me to be. Alternatively, they may be nice to me because they think I am something I am not... and therefore I am bound to end up as a disappointment to them... and that is something I dread.

I recognise that I have difficulties with my self-esteem, and my son's social worker has given me options as to where I might seek help for this. Bearing this in mind, I appreciate that in some cases I may be mistaken... not to mention the fact my wife and children like me. The children can be explained by the fact that I am their parent, and a parent has to be quite a beast if their own children dislike them. I am a loving parent so, while they are so young, they are not likely to feel that I am a disappointment. I do not have an explaination as to why my wife likes me and has continued to for the 20 years of our marriage. The blindness of love surely cannot explain 20 years of duration. I do not understand it, but I trust my wife enough to believe her.

So, nice people to me are confusing and thus I worry about it. People who are nasty to me are not such a confusing thing, and so worry me much less, if at all. Nastiness does sting because it often affirms what I am... and that is admittedly uncomfortable... but they themselves do not worry me because I know where I stand with them.

Thus I worry about nice people because I often do not know whether to believe them at face value or not.

so, i've missed all of this, and am probably going to ask stuff everyone else has already: so shoot me.

i'm music-obsessed, so i want to know all about your composing thingamagig.  and you're a brit: whereabouts (if you don't mind saying so on the intergeeks)?

that'll do for starters.

I do not mind, and besides I don't own a gun :green:

That's a bit open-ended. Any chance of closing it a bit. I am more movie-obsessed than music-obsessed. My composing is a way for me to be involved in film-projects. I had limited piano lessons as a child but never progressed to any grades because my teacher retired, and we couldn't afford a more expensive one. I started composing as a hobby in 1985 (although I did provide some musical score for an audio drama for Tapes for the Handicapped back then) and in 2002 started composing musical scores for film-makers.

My favourite composers are Bernard Herrmann and Jerry Goldsmith.

...and you're a brit: whereabouts (if you don't mind saying so on the intergeeks)?

I live in the South of the UK :)
