Mara,
I do want to keep my blog as respectful as I can, but I do realize that this relies mostly on me. There are many hurting people here and to make them hold back some of their hurt because it might offend a weak complementarian brother is more than I want to do. I don’t plan to practice moderating comments.

I believe that the comps here can help by understanding that this is a place where people come who have been greatly abused by men and women in the comp movement. If we hold back their pain, then I think we are just adding to their pain and it may come across as being abusive. I want to be gracious to all, but I also have a great deal of patience for those who are in pain.

If these things overly offend comps, I would just like them to try really hard to try to put themselves into the other person’s shoe. It is what I believe Galatians 6:2 means:

Gal 6:2 Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
