i don't think anyone here was "pissed off" by your article. i certainly wasn't. i just think it took something quite visceral and formalized it which generally takes what is interesting about something and what people are passionate about and strips it away. writing like this generally is far more interesting to outsiders who want to understand someone else's experience than it is to those who have experienced that which is being written about. when reading a discussion of their own experiences, those involved generally find that the written experience pales in comparison to the lived experience and thus doesn't hold much interest for them. the more academic the writing, generally, the more true this is. this isn't to say that your article is poorly written for the audience it was intended, but it being on the internet means that, inevitably, a larger audience will read.
