I am sick to death of hearing Sexy Sunday being referred to as 'Slappers R Us'. I DJ there, and am a respectable married woman. I do not like being called a slapper. All of the stuff at Sexy Sunday is like a Carry-on film - silly double entendres, daft jokes and general silliness as an end to what can sometimes be quite a serious weekend.
I would also like to remind everyone that the supposed 'nastiness' coming from Sexy Sunday is mainly rumour and conjecture. I have spoken to the people who run the event and they have no malice or ill-will towards anyone else's events; they just want to be able to run theirs with the minimum of goth scene politics, which no-one currently will let them do! Anyone who knows me well will know that I would not have any part of this type of thing, and will actively combat it where I can. I am an honest person, and wouldn't lie about what was really going on. Nor am I naive; I would recognise if I was being misled.
I am also aware of some facts in this situation that people are not discussing. I will keep these private out of respect for the organisations involved, for the moment.
Yes, there are now effectively 4 goth weekends a year in Whitby. 2 large ones, and 2 small ones. People are free to choose which of these they spend their money on. If the ones Hazel is running are not successful, then she will stop running them. It's as simple as that.
I would also like to remind everyone that I work in one of the most political towns in the UK (Newcastle) and am sick to the back teeth of the politics everyone indulges at every given opportunity. Perhaps if we all stopped bitching at one another, the scene as a whole would be a nicer place to be.
I am very upset about this.
