I'm a Jewish lesbian, and while I learned about my family's history at a young age, I didn't learn about the other groups of victims until much later on. [personal profile] feuervogel and I had different approaches to pointing out the unfortunate phrasing, but nowhere did either of us accuse [personal profile] cimorene of denying anything.

And you got the part where you really, really felt that a Jewish woman needed you to educate her on the Holocaust?

I'm worried by this sentence. There were other groups who were victims of the Holocaust. My being Jewish doesn't make me an expert on Nazi eugenics. I was twenty-four when I first learned that ethnic Serbs had been mass-murdered in the Holocaust. Today, reading [profile] feueryogel's link, is the first time I've learned that Jehovah's Witnesses were among the specifically persecuted groups. So, yes, this particular Jewish woman did need [personal profile] feuervogel to educate her, and will continue to need education.
