(no subject)

[randomness]

Why is it that well-meaning people fail to understand when people have issues, even emotional landmines, about certain subjects, and still keep banging on about them.

Are they simply clueless? Do they not listen? Or is it that they say things so they can hear themselves talk? What?

Huh.

Not having any idea about the discussion in question, I have to say that it sounds like a very different situation from the one I was thinking of when I posted. By and large, the problem I'm referring to is when someone won't shut up about some subject after they've been asked not to bring it up, repeatedly and in various ways.

When you say that you don't recall discussions being that lopsided in sex-ratio, do you mean discussions in general or some subset of them in particular?
