What you really have to figure out is why Div has you so figured out. Otherwise a word or two wouldn't send you to such a defensive place on an emotional level. Occasionally Div makes an 'analysis'. In general, it's dismissed and quickly forgotten. Then you have the occasions where people get (and stay) upset to such an extent that it's obvious he was dead on. I just find it funny, (in that ironic, twisted way that makes me laugh a bit when bored or my GF is too busy to be annoyed) that the two people who took the greatest umbrage to his observations always assert he is the main reason this board has so few posts.
Personally, I kind of like the 'pear' shape. Rachael Ray, for example is cute as heck.
As far as psych goes... behavior/thought process modification is my area of intrest. 
I'm interested in to what extent people can become keenly aware of when their thought process goes awry and how well they can make alterations once aware of the mis-thought.
Jake,
You're making the mistake of thinking that most people use rationale when reading/replying to posts. That was your first mistake. Secondly, you assumed that most people (females notwithstanding) internalize thought process and behaviour modification through analysis.
Most people don't have the skills, nor volition to do so.
Jake, I'm not defensive on any emotional level.
I just find the guy boring and annoying as heck.
His schtick is staler than month old bread 
I'm so boring and annoying that you find time to respond to me.
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
That aftertaste in your mouth is the month old bread you just ate.
We're still not at the problem's root, LOL!
If your post is true.... why not just ignore Div's posts? Your behavior isn't congruent with what the post's explanation.
First of all... I'm assuming you're clever enough to scroll past Div's posts so there must be some reason the same statement or three evokes such a strong visceral response. Is it your sense of justice? Is one man's opinion so vile and reeking of testosterone that innocent by-readers need warning? Or is it your that your ego can't handle not being taken seriously by someone you feel more than a little superior to?
I'm more curious as to the actual underlying thought process than entertained. Most people never put any thought whatsoever into what they think. There's obviously a reason, I just wonder if you can clearly articulate it.
I see that you, and many others, actually don't 'get' the subtext of his posts. That being said.. tons of people post a lot without being understood. Why is it that a person can use a few key words and it's a big deal? And before you ask... no, I'm not going to break his post down anylonger. The one time on the moved post was just to prove a simple point.
I think we both know what the answer is, Jake.
I don't take Judi seriously and much of her image is simply a facade constructed for ego purposes.
She can't stand someone who doesn't take her as seriously as she takes herself.
Pretentiousness personified.
I "think" that is fine, but I do not think it is necessary to try and get a female perspective with a post loaded with anal sex comments for example.
Amy,
At least you've spoken to me over the phone, so you know I'm the same guy on here as in real life.
I realize most people are never challenged on anything so it's understandable why Div's can confuse/offend a few. That's not the point at all and this dialogue (from my perspective) only tangentially involves his comments. I'm more curious why some people look for a reason to be unhappy and to what extent the dynamics of on-line relationship difficulties represent off-line scenarios.
I do find your use of the term 'broken' telling.
It's more interesting to argue with the topical essence of my posts, than read them for what they are, which takes some level of intelligence.
Even when I say something crude, there is usually something else behind it.
People want their on-line ego taken seriously, not questioned.......but taken at face value.........which I just don't do unless I know the person offline.
I know how you are man....but as a PT you should be working on the physical aspects of training & leave your study of psychology of your clients outside of the gym or not at all.
Kenneth,
I only reveal my analysis to clients who inquire, but over months of training someone three times per week or more, you build a rapport.
I'm a confidant of sorts for some, perhaps a conquest for others....
Regardless, my focus is on their training and getting them results, but like anything, there is a time to be serious and a time to have fun.
Personal training is both.
DIV
