[QUOTE=strandinthewind] I mean I think the only thing that has been officially disputed is the LB slapping SN incident, which no one has flatly denied, except perhaps LB. QUOTE]
Not only has it NOT been flatly denied, but in
The Story Of FM mid-nineties UK doc, John flat out says Lindsey had his hands around Stevie's neck, and then Stevie says (in a literal, non-dramatic way) she thought LB was going to kill her. I don't know why LB denies it...he could just own up and say it was an awful moment he regrets. I wonder what his reasons are. I mean, obviously, he doesn't want to be known as a woman-beater or anything, but to me it's worse when we're left to speculate about the incident. I think Lindsey is really sensitive about these things now. I feel like he's found 101 ways to "tastefully" admit he's enjoying the male bonding of the musicians in the band with CM gone. Not to get into a Chit Chat Board topic here, but I hate that feminism has made men afraid to enjoy their maleness in a healthy manner (and I'm a woman).
Equal rights, not women forcing men into feeling like they have to
hide their masculinity! I think men are just so afraid of what woman find insulting these days that they don't even know what to do! I was in a store a couple weeks ago carrying a giant box which had some small items on top, and I dropped one of the small items right in front of this guy. It was clearly going to be very difficult for me to pick up the item, but he just stood there looking back and forth from me to the item like he was afraid to help me.
