Alright ladies, I got into an argument today about helmets. So, what’s your verdict? Are they so good or no good?
-
Definitely so so good, I always wear one when I go snowboarding now. I would rather not get another concussion from hitting my head on a patch of ice (also you don’t lose your goggles when you crash).
-
Agreed! I fell backwards on a nasty rail a few years ago and cracked my head off it. After that, I ALWAYS wear a helmet. Until I make the big time, I have to rely on my brain to pay the bills, haha :D
-
-
I have to admit, there were days I would not wear the helmet. I board in two modes: cruising mode and tricky mode. I pretty much NEVER wear a helmet when I’m doing a cruising day. Granted, where I cruise is not very crowded, and does not really have ice EVER during the part of the year I go. I totally agree on needing the brain to pay the…[Read more]

I live in Lincoln, Nebraska. It sucks but I feel like something resembling a gay movement is beginning to start here, though. Wish us luck, autostraddle.
-
Yeah, the UU presence in Lincoln is also a large part in the gay movement going on here– but it’s also due in part to the art hipsters and the college students at UNL who just have a lot of fucks to give. :)
-
Well, I know for a fact that once every summer, Lincoln gets hella gay because the International Thespian Festival for high school theatre troops is on the Nebraska campus. Not that this helps at all, but speaking from personal experience, it’s actually gayer than a pride parade.
-
This is totally right. Campus was crawling with these wonderful theater people, they had these IDs around their necks and they were EVERYWHERE. I hope they liked Jazz in June.

I live in Cambridge, UK…which is stupid for a few reasons – 1) because there are literally no gay-people, especially gay-women (well, that I know of) and 2) because there are a LOT of other places called Cambridge, so I get pretty excited when I see someone else from Cambridge on AS, but then they’re usually from Massachusetts and so I slip back…[Read more]

Oh thats sad dear.. I understand your feelings, even I thought that you are from ‘that’ Cambridge.Just have some patience and hey you are still young and you don’t need to give this much importance to your GAY stuff.Try to adjust with your society until you gets out of the teenage cocoon and who knows maybe someday you will understand you are…[Read more]

Oh my I live in THAT Cambridge, at least when I’m not at uni in London. You’re not alone on AS :)
-
Hey, I’m heading to THAT Cambridge this October :D … but, wait, is there really no gay scene?

Does Pride season make you wanna throw rainbow bricks through the windows, too? They look like so much fun, and yet The annoying thing about living in Sunnydale (“halfway between L.A. and San Francisco”, somehow manages to be a small town with most of the basic requirements of a city, pretty damn white): the big Pride celebrations are all just…[Read more]

I live in a town in Kansas that has a population under 5000 people. :(
I’m pretty sure I’m the only out lesbogay in the county. I’ll be moving to a more progressive area pretty soon when I’ll move onto the advice group because I have no idea how to meet anyone ever. Until then ugh!
-
I know how it is.
-
omg 700 people. You poor dear <3
My town has yours beat by about 700 people (population 1500) but we don't have much fly fishing! -
Sorry, a little late to the party, BUT… Fall River Mills! One of my really good friends is from there. She moved out pretty quickly though. Good luck!
-
-
:( How are you staying sane babe? Cuz seriously little teen me would be in jail if I had to deal with that kind of nonsense.
-
Lawrence? Good deal. I’m actually moving there next month probably. Well, to Overland Park which is close enough.
I don’t know how problem solvely college is but it will be a wonderful experience for you. I figure if the area has Junior Colleges with GSAs then the lib arts college will be way better off for it. You’ll be golden chee. :)

Bought a new Loaded Vanguard over the weekend :D I had to brag about it to someone, haha!
-
Nice! Congrats! How much did that set you back?? I’m currently saving for kite surfing lessons :D
Boarding + Cement has always made me nervous
-
I would LOVE to try kite surfing! Have you already tried it a bit? I would imagine your arms and shoulders are like jell-o at the end of your first day, haha! Looks amazing!
-
No, not yet! [though not for lack of desire] I have been wake boarding for several years though, and that definitely tires your arms and shoulders [and back and legs] if you aren’t in super excellent shape. I imagine it will be similar in kite surfing. On that note, I’m gonna go to the gym! :P
