I wasn't offended by the thread because I have read the thread initiator's posts for about two years now and because this thread is in the "fluff" category. That being said, I know that not everyone will be reading this thread from the same standpoint. And, I also think that it's great to bring awareness to the political implications of phrases that are flippantly used. Like Gemme, I don't really participate in sharing much information regarding my sexual inclinations; but, I wanted to contribute to this thread because I felt like I knew the good intentions behind its creation and because I think each poster can clarify his/her/hys/ze's appropriation of the term "tap". For instance, I chose the act of "crushing" (a playful affection and thinking someone's "cute" or "sexy"). And, perhaps, even a dialogue here--or elsewhere--about "tap" may prove beneficial (like the discussions on the slang use of "gay"). Just a few thoughts, here. Respectfully, daisy
