You have said what is necessary and I definitely commend you for being strong and also magnanimous. Being nice in these abusive situations is really difficult. The truth shines through, and unfortunately, a lot of us women have been verbally assaulted by earnest.

Even I have been verbally assaulted, when he claimed in his comment that "you're sucking Stellabelle's cock".

Last time I checked, I didn't have a cock, but hatred often results in misguided and illogical conclusions such as this. Well, I guess it wouldn't be the internet without unfiltered hatred towards women. You're definitely a strong person whom I admire. Thanks for being a positive light in a murky sea. I'm waiting for the devs to create a block feature so that stalking victims don't abandon Steemit and we can be free of the wasted energy we spend on monitoring such horrific abuse and hatred.
Sometimes we do need to get some light and think about solutions to the hate that has been flung into us. Let's think about how we can be shielded from hate that we never caused...
