A reluctance to take the controls

Jay:
You would do well to concentrate on the topic at hand, rather than
making gross generalizations and speculating about things I personally
might have said or done.

TROLL ALERT !!!

notice that, from the few posts already made?

Not you, Jay ! g

Since Jay's quote above was in response to me, are you referring to me?
Did I say something wrong?

Not everyone posts here every day, or even every week. I've posted once
in a while, and I know the group's other "Jay" IRL. You guys complain
that there aren't enough women in aviation ... if this is the way you
welcome us (by sounding a "Troll Alert"), what do you expect? And why
would you sound the alert anyway? Did I say something wrong? or
uncivilized? or out of line?

This was a topic I have had personal experience with -- being a woman, a
pilot, having people so eager to want you learn to fly that you feel
like they're trying to *convert* you to a religion (!), and having a
strong passion for flying, but knowing what it feels like to be pushed
into something you simply aren't ready for...yet. Thankfully and
happily, I made it through in my own time, not being egged-into doing
things I wasn't comfortable with just to *prove* to someone that I was
interested or serious.

That may or may not have been the case with the young woman in Jay's
post, but it is another perspective than the one Jay came away
with...and that is, after all, the topic of his post, isn't it? He did
say he didn't "get it", so I offered some other reasons than all the
negative ones he offered.

So, if you don't post often or agree with you regulars, you're a troll?
