The GLBT and GSA Thread

[Falcon Horus]

Your conversation does remind me of the 'ten reasons you know your son/daughter is gay lists'.

Hand me that list so that I can hand to my folks first... before I come out.

[Lilith]

i don't think that list will do me any good i just don't act gay around my family.... it's like i have a split personality complex... actually, come to think of it, i may have some sort of personality disorder

oh, and i have some great news! i don't know how many of you are familiar with the Gateworld Cantina... it's the largest thread on the entire site, and part of it's charm is that it's an informal role play... you're simply you, and your background can come from any of the more popular fandoms expressed thru the site... you can take part in the actual role play story or you can just stay for the conversations [( as i do )] anyways, me and sillyscipia got engaged on monday

Same here... though sometimes I let it slip. It has happened by accident where I made a slip up and my sister almost choked coughing, trying to get attention away from me onto her. I fixed it easily then... but I learned to be more careful nonetheless.

I find it kind of hard stepping into an already existing conversation.

Congrats to you and Sillyscipia

heh... i usually lurk until i have something to say which isn't very often

The conversation my sister just had with mum on the phone:

"Should I be telling everyone?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well... last night when Granddad asked 'how are the girls?' I thought to myself, does he mean 'is Marian a lesbian?'"


I think she has finally done it. My sister has sent my mother insane.

lol...prepping your parents *g* I couldn't find a list though I have seen them and definitely been emailed them before.

congratulations on the engagement.

I also don't 'act gay' I just act like me perpetually and I happen to be gay...the only difference when I am in the closet is that I don't give my ex's pronouns if I want to stay in the closet.

And you're back to being the good twin...*g*

Found this item from my usual feeds.

The Heterosexual Questionnaire

The Heterosexual Questionnaire was created back in 1972 to put heterosexual people in the shoes of a gay person for just a moment. Questions and assumptions made of Gays and Lesbians that are unfair, are reversed and this time asked to the straight people.

This is really interesting. As a heterosexual woman, I think it is fair to say that I've never thought about many of these questions. And it really makes me think about the questionnaires about homosexuality that are out there differently. Some of the questions can really seem offensive, and that's to a person who is in the 'accepted mainstream' of sexuality in America.
I'm definitely going to use this questionnaire in my 'diversity' class.

[Tittamiire]

Hehe...I remember having that up in the LGB(T) lounge at Uni for us all to chuckle over, it did occur to me that we needed it up in the rest of the students union though rather than in the space full of gay people.

We also had a giant Mr Men poster, Jenga and a gun that shot foam disks...yeah...our LGB(T) soceity was hardcore.

lol ti..... did you guys read the comments? that one dude who actually filled it out is a total idiot

Holy ****, I hadn't gotten that far... *snort* Hilarious!

OMG, that guy is such a freakin' moron! A major point of this is pointing out the humor of the questionnaires. Somebody obviously missed the point.
Something tells me that this guy isn't as secure in his sexuality as he likes to project.
And as the guy after him said, posting as anonymous doesn't really show he has pride in his answers.

[LaCroix]

Again another quick post. It's more political than what I would post, but it is important.

What are the candidates' positions towards the gay community?

She really needs to do some Real Research, besides the Bible before speaking.
