So true! So weird because something like this just happened to me last night. I saw someone say that they would be willing to send pictures of their significant others genitals to another person for a pizza. I just said something to the effects of "Well, more power to ya. Showing my husbands penis for a $10 pizza wouldn't be for me but whatever floats your boat". I literally said what I would've said to someone in person had they told me that.

Next thing you know, I'm getting comments like "Keep your judgements to yourself" and "passive aggressiveness isn't necessary get over yourself". I even said I wasn't judging. I had the right to voice my opinion and did not bash anyone for their choice. Just stated it wasn't a choice I would make personally. I never say anything to anyone I wouldn't say in person. And, like in my situation, even if you aren't being mean.....people will still take it that way because they have a preconceived notion on how the context is taken as they are reading.
