Topic : 01/01 Revenge of the Exes

When I heard the first story, all I could think was, "how pathetic".  The women who post on that site should, (A) get into therapy, and (B) learn from the mistake and move on.  It's unfathomable that ADULTS are permitted to type whatever tripe that is plain libel. 

There is no justification for what is happening to Todd; he, like many others, had a relationship that didn't work, period.  The rest of us, when dealing with a less than amicable split, learn to deal with it and learn from what WE did wrong in the relationship, not do whatever it takes to derogate him or her.  It just goes to show that being legally an adult doesn't make one mature.

As far as Tasha is concerned, I'm appalled at her obtuse behavior.  Obviously, she thinks what is legal is equal to what is moral.  No matter if she has the law on her side, she should be able to see how this site effects the men.  And to say that it's equal is just plain absurd; if it were truly equal, as she stated, then the women's picture and name would be posted alongside the men they castigate.

•  Getting revenge on your ex is childish and juvenille. When someone does you wrong in any relationship let it go and them. Why let them have that much power over your life? As far as the website goes, I think it should not be aloud to defame someone because of what they did to someone else. Everyone makes mistakes in their life and will eventually pay for it, but it is not my responsibility to make him or her pay. I am responsible for myself and everyone else should be also. I feel for the attorney who was defamed on the websit. I would sue as well.

...I love it!

Sound almost the same, eh? If we apply standards to one site they'll have to apply them to all sites.
