Vulnerable, emotional, fearful, anxious? Yes. Made of glass and excused from common conversation? No.

There's a difference between asking for sensitivity and feeding into victimization. VS said nothing wrong, just brought up the observation that whatever chapter is probably more diverse than the OP noted. It was not done insensitively or in an unkind manner so to say she "made the girl feel bad" is ridiculous. The OP is an adult woman in control of her own emotional reactions, no one can make her feel bad. It does a disservice to her to treat her as though that's not true.

Furthermore, pointing out a missed fact does not make someone a hater any more than having a misstep pointed out makes one hated on. What goes on here is a lot of teasing and it can be taken overboard, I'll give that much. But cyberbullying? Can destroy us, make us quit recruitment? IT'S A MESSAGEBOARD. It's not that serious. If it is for that person (not talking about the OP), then yes, I have no problem saying that the log out button's in the top right corner.
