The Yin and Yang of your Comments

Wow. The comments on the "My Beloved" post (May 9th) are incredible. And they are starting to heat up on the very graphic and personal "Multiple Screaming Orgasms" post (Jan 30th). Fans and critics on both.

As usual they made me think.

I bought a book on the road to help me learn Tai Chi while I'm in hotel rooms. I've been wanting to learn it for 20 years. First topic: Yin and Yang. It occurred to me that there is a definite Yin and Yang to blog comments, at least on DANCEFAN.

Writing a blog is not only an expressive outlet, it's a journey of self discovery. The learning curve of comments has a Yin (learning to not get a big head from the positive comments) and a Yang (not descending into self-flagellation with the criticisms). I have perspective now. As of now I just welcome all the comments, barring irrational hardcore flaming, and consider them part of the fabric and legacy of DanceFan.

Thanks to The Yin club (positive comments): Corrine, Renee, Mistress T., Quiver, Trish, Naughty Alex, Cat, David, Denise, BJK, Scream, Piper, Betty, Sassy Dancer, Leanna Taylor, wench, panty pulldown, Apollo, and of course my original buddy Don. I appreciate you guys and gals.

Thanks anyway to The Yang club (the critics): sedona anawah, Lexy, notafanofdancefan, CP, You Disgust Me, and Mike. You add to the liveliness around here, whether you mean to or not. I do notice that the critics never leave an email or homepage. I also have the distinct naggy feeling that some of these people, if not all of them, are the same person. Just something about common wording.

There's also a Neutral Club, who just comment: Boy, Oksana, Zenwanderer, L.B. Jeffries,Turkey Mayo (?), and Lauda. Thanks to you guys too.

My award for Yin and Yang in the same comment: Glitter79 who said in a comment to "My Beloved":


That was a beautiful tribute. She sounds like an amazing person. You're a lucky man. She, however is a very unlucky woman who deserves better.
But, I still like to read your blog!
Just hope that if I ever get married someday, it's not to someone like you, no offence!
Keep telling the sexy stories.


Awesome!

My award for dramatic conversion from Yang to Yin goes to blah who wrote both:


"you're a freak."


and


you know, by reading some of your previous posts, the detail, and the method in which you described certain things, I used to think you were pretty f**ked up in the head, and nothing more than an extremely perverted guy who wasn't satisfied with his marriage...

but from the most recent stream of entries you've made, i've thought differently.. you're alright bud.. you seem pretty normal

good work
