I'm not sure this is along the lines of this particular thread but I had to share!

Last fall while at the Habitat for Humanity BBQ at Sailwinds I overheard two people talking at a table next to me. One of them looked out the open door facing the outside stage and said " Oh look, theres our beloved Mayor." The other person asked how he could tell that this particular person was the Mayor from such a long distance to which the first guy replied "Who else would be wearing a hat over a toupe, have his shorts pulled up to his titties and wear white socks with black shoes!" Then the second guy took a second look and said "yeah your right!"

You need to remove yourself from the forum!  You have 6 post and the few I have read are trash!  Get a life!  As you say, "rumors".  No one wants to hear rumors.  Give facts.  What a dirtbag you must be.  It is also common knowledge on this board that drunks, habitual drug users, and openly gay crabbers have more common sense and cooth than you'll ever have.  Wonder what bad habits go around about you?

As I said before, it is more than just one individual.  Usually, the story is that the waterman is not the addict, but the one supplying the monies/drugs for the exchange of sexual gratification and pleasure.  I say usually because I have heard stories where the waterman has the drug and is willing to share with the other man contingent on sexual pleasuring.

 

I just think it's: 1) weird (mainly because Dorchester's culture promotes watermen to be the epitome of masculinity and achievement), 2) despicable that these addicts are being taken advantage of and supplemented 3) despicable that an addicts dependency and cycle is being facilitated through prostitution.

"manworking":  why are you so interested in such a rumor?  As thinkfirst said, crack addicts will do anything for crack" I don't think it matters what your job is or where it happens...it happens in this world.  Just because you heard this about one waterman, why would you think it happens to all?  Something is just strange about your whole concern of such a rumor.

The post you refer to is someone asking me if I was a crabber.  I expect everyone to read the entire thread before posting; in an effort to save space, I am not going to constantly repeat myself saying, "I am not saying it is true and you are guilty of it."

 

What about people reading this thread thinking I am gay or an addict because of your implications of me being concerned in "strange ways" and needing myspace to find my kind of crowd.  Obviously something terrible has happened to you or you know something and can't stand it.

MW said

"I am not a crabber, but I have heard an immense amount of stories about the going-ons with crabbers while they're abroad"

Sorry MW, but IMO, that is a generalization.

Two things: 1. IMO, you did generalize.   2.  What I am visualizing is the young sons and daughters (not to mention spouses) of our local watermen reading your posts and wondering...

I am not that stupid.  My comment was to show how stupid someone would be by taken my anonymity approach and construing it as a generalization.  I've already stated I am not accusing anyone, but these stories have been rampant and I am curious as to whether anyone else has heard them or can verify them.

 

Can anyone?

 

I do not understand why you are so mad Farmer.  Either you've got something against gays (I can understand having something against drug addicts), or you are upset about these stories being leaked.

You're doing a good job all by yourself. You also seem extremely interested, in a strange way. You should be cautious with what could be construded as a generalization of watermen's morals and ethics, for they are a proud and tough breed.


I am not generalizing, but I didn't want to post any specific names.  I will if you want.  It's not up to me to monitor my posts, especially when I am not using any crude language.  It isn't my fault this is what is apparently going on out on the water - so if you don't like it, don't read it.

 

Thanks to thinkfirst for contributing something to my question.  Even though they aren't mugging people, it is still concerning an illegal and very detrimental substance.  Not to mention, the addict is being taken advantage of due to his weakness and addiction.

I don't know about all that, but crackheads WILL do anything for crack, and a first time user CAN be addicted from that time on. Also, fyi, crack is NOT A physical addiction, it's a mental addiction. It steals your life.

A young friend of the family DID work for an openly gay crabber for 2 Summers...  the competition could have started rumors about him. And really, who cares if someone has sex in exchange for crack? Rather that than robbing or mugging me if they're addicts.

So basically, you are accusing me of being a homosexual, but I call someone a hippie or a hick and everyone goes up in arms?  It's not that I can't take it, I think it is hilarious (especially since I am sure now these stories are legitimate after seeing the responses, especially Farmer's), but it is very hypocritical.  So, moving forward, if I call somone a meaningless name (such as hick) I don't want anyone to complain, because I can sit here and handle my sexual orientation coming into question.

 

You hicks.

I think you may be feeling a little guilty about engaging in the above situation and are hoping their are others besides yourself doing such a thing.

You need to find another forum.....your points to ponder are uncalled for on this site.

This is a Dorchester County forum so I thought it was appropriate to address something going on in one of the largest industries of the county.

Am I wrong?

I saw ponderable, and this is a thought I've had for quite awhile pertaining to Dorchseter.  Can anyone shed some light?  Any stories supporting or against the allegations?
