Re: McDougall Plan (apology)From: anonymous (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sat, 14 Sep 2002 01:27:57 -0500 (CDT)
Sara, I am the one who questioned your identity. I apologize if you took it the wrong way. I was not so concerned about the anonymous thing, rather the fact that the Charly Johnson post used the same emoticons and unusual key strokes, the email address was also sbcglobal and she was talking about progesterone cream and you also spoke of it in a recent post. She also used a brand name as you used the McDougall name. I thought it was unfair if you were promoting the progesterone cream as two different people because I thought it was misleading and there is some controversy as to if progesterone cream is helpful or healthy. You obviously have a lot to add to this forum, and I thought that if you WERE posting as several different people you should know that it made your posts look less credible. Since it appears you did not post as Charly Johnson, I can only apologize deeply and hope that you will forgive my assuming such on the context of unusually similar posts. I truly was not saying I didn't appreciate your posts. Although your opinions were very different from most on this board, they were obviously well thought out and researched. It is always good to have new ideas from others, especially when all else has failed. I think women on this board just get very defensive when it sounds as if one more person is telling them that this is their fault and that it is completely controllable. It simply is not either for most women. When you hit a sore spot with someone, they are often unable to appreciate the knowledge you want to share - and you clearly have so much to share. It is unfortunate that the posts headed in such a negative direction and I hope you reconsider posting in the future. If nothing else, you seem to want to help people and learn all you can to help them - although not a particularly pleasant way of learning, perhaps in your future career as a medical professional you will better be able to see what a fine line there is between helping and unintentionally upsetting them and putting them on the defensive. (I mean that in a very positive way, it simply is a lesson that all GREAT medical personel must learn- and it is clear that you truly desire, and most likely will be, a GREAT asset to the medical community) I'm sorry for any trouble I may have caused you.
