Actually, my first thought was "Awesome, I can have a Roller Derby skin now!" I'm currently sporting quite a few bruises that were inflicted by other women in the sport. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but having been a victim of horrific domestic abuse, shame on anyone who tells me that a bruise on a virtual woman advocates abuse. I refuse to see pain and heartache in benign things - that gives power to the abuser. I will, instead, empower myself by associating those bruises scrapes and cuts, with a Halloween costume, or an all women's sport like Roller Derby.

Agape - meaning the love of family and friends, Philia - a brotherly, or otherwise non-sexual love, and Eros - affection of a sexual nature. It's usually boiled down to Eros and Agape - outlined and debated quite nicely in the book "Time Enough for Love" by Robert A. Heinlein. Heinlein also outlines in that same book, a model that is used today for plural marriage, and polyamorous relationships. (As well as many of his other novels) Eros being more physical, and Agape being more mental. Sun, 20 Sep 2009 03:19:21 +0000 http://shoppingcartdisco.com/?p=4454#IDComment35147801
