| The posts are under her real name so I don't want to doxx her. | |
| Can I send you a PM so we can discuss in private? | |

| Since she herself chose to post under her real name, how is | |
| merely linking to the posts "doxxing" her? | |

| I suppose you are right. I guess I am really worried about | |
| doxxing myself as I don't want my potential love interest to be | |
| known publicly, as people here could find out who I am by | |
| looking her up were we to actually get married in the future. | |
| But I suppose that's getting too far into the future. | |

| "Again, if you actually cared about her you wouldn't be calling | |
| her "subhuman"" | |
| It may be brutal, but the truth is. I prefer honesty over | |
| flattery. Also, you are illiterate. I called her face | |
| "subhuman", not her. We don't call people subhuman unless they | |
| exhibit subhuman behavior, as we judge people based on their | |
| actions, not their looks. | |

| [quote]I, knowing she was vegan asked "are you a vegetarian as | |
| well". Although looking back, I should have asked, you don't eat | |
| cheese?[/quote] | |
| Neither of these questions are honest if you already know she is | |
| vegan. | |

| I see. But I didn't want her to know that I knew, as I had | |
| gathered the information online by searching her name, which I | |
| thought she might find a little weird. I also wanted to see how | |
| comfortable she was in declaring herself to be vegan. So perhaps | |
| the question should have been: "are you vegan as well". And this | |
| is what I think I had meant to say, I guess it just came out | |
| differently because I have social anxiety as I stated earlier. | |
| In this case, the only dishonesty would be me pretending to not | |
| know she was vegan (hence the question) but nowhere in the | |
| question does it imply I did not know she was vegan (if | |
| anything, it is merely confirming something I read about her | |
| online). | |

| might find a little weird." | |
| If someone had gathered information about you online, would you | |
| not prefer to know about it? And would you not be more worried | |
| if they tried to conceal from you that they had done this than | |
| if they told you openly that they had done this? | |

| Yes. But if the information is publicly available, I wouldn't | |
| mind if they didn't tell me as I would probably disclose the | |
| information with them in our conversation anyway. But I concede | |
| that I would prefer they told me. Just that I wouldn't mind if | |
| they didn't, unless I explicitly asked them about it and they | |
| lied. | |

| "I have encountered steadfast ethical vegans who think they can | |
| convert their intended sexual partner to veganism via having a | |
| sexual relationship with them....." | |
| We could give them the benefit of the doubt and say that the | |
| vegans are just naive (similar to those vegans who believe in | |
| educating non vegans), but if they do not change their views | |
| even after being presented with the facts (i.e. the meat eaters | |
| will most likely not give up meat. If anything, the vegan women | |
| will become less committed to veganism due to the telegonic | |
| effects of sexual intercourse), it is safe to write them off as | |
| subhuman. | |
| Is this reasonable? | |
