in an online forum, where I think most people manage a lot of fairly brutal honesty
I'm not disagreeing with you here, but my initial online time was spent on a very USENET-style mailing list, and I often find livejournal, even with the younger folks, to be full of what I think of as traditionally feminine behavior restrictions. I sorta stomped someone last week, and got dinged for attacking people, and I thought afterwards "wow, if you'd ever really seen me go after someone in the bad old days, you'd understand how easy I went".
