[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 7102514, member: 6704184"] You literally used it to describe someone dancing around. Literally just the idea that "dancing around like a pansy" is a valid way to describe something is, at best, deeply misguided. Also, I never said that delicate = gay. What are you talking about? The "singing and dancing around like a pansy" statement means that you are saying that dancing and singing, ie artistic performance, is a thing "pansies" do. Clarifying that you just meant "delicate" doesn't actually make it more respectable thing to say. The idea that singing and dancing is for delicate people is best described by words that are hard to use to describe an idea without someone thinking you're also describing the person who said it, and thus a bit close to breaking the rules. It is...not a smart or well thought out notion. At best. At worst, it's an insult to anyone who does those things. Especially people who both do those things and do "tough" things like fight competitively. Especially when it's said alongside a bunch of statements over the course of the thread that you can't take such people seriously as heroes in a fiction game. [/QUOTE]
