Why do you get a violation for answering a question honestly?
I answered a question about STD'S with a very honest but slightly brutal answer. The same question has been asked numerous times. What's your opinion? Is it wrong to post a question if you don't want it answed?

Human's are ego driven. They ask questions (sometimes), not to get the truthful answer, but to get attention. They want responces that tailor themselves to an image that they already have of themself. Answering otherwise conflicts with their personal beliefs.
And don't get me wrong. But this world is FILLED with people who have problems when others conflict with their personal beliefs.
Some people just live blind... who need to OPEN THEIR EYES.

I feel ya. Some girl asked if she was fat....again. And I was brutal as well but I have seen "Am I fat" questions TOOOOOOO OFTEN. Sometimes it makes me wish Yahoo Answers was a building so I could burn it down just because of the "Am I fat" questions. So I said "sure y not? Lose weigh fatty" and I got reported. Dont ask if you dont wanna hear the answer.
