Beyond that, I guess I tend to believe other people's reports of their own experience. i get why the tension here is irritating and invalidating for folks on both sides and I do in fact think that very vocal folks on each side can be awfully superior and nasty about the virtues of their position. Not everyone! But I've seen it happen; I can understand being reactive.
