I agree. We don't all use the same language and if a person is not a regular B/F message board attender they would not know that certain words or phrasing can be insulting to others, if in their own little butch/femme/queer/lesbian community the terms are not insulting. We all have our own vernacular in our own community.
Yes, to breathing room, especially for those who do not know BFP's vernacular and "trigger points".
Intent. It's what for dinner.
