That awkward moment when, for the second time in a week, you show up to school in the same outfit as your crush’s boyfriend. Just thought some of you guys could relate :P

Underage Straddlers (in lieu of an inevitably more creative name) 10 years, 7 months ago
I’m doing an oral history project about teen views on feminism and the gender and sexual minority community. If you’re interested, please tell me. I’d love to ask you questions and hear your thoughts!

Hey folks! Does anyone have any specific goals for this group? Like I mean obviously friends (how do we optimize friendship?) and advice/ support for various degrees of queer life and lack thereof and also being teenaged, but anything else? do we want to try to have a rotational youtube so that we can get to know each other? Or blog posts? Or just…[Read more]
-
A rotational youtube situation sounds pretty fab to me, if we’re all up for it. Maybe a facebook group too? And I definitely agree with the tumblr thing. I’m supermegaplus on tumblr, to get the ball rolling in that area. I’d certainly prefer any of those options to being silent and having nothing happen in this group!
-
If someone else knows how to do google plus group please make one! Do people prefer that to Facebook? I’d be happy with either. The same thing with Youtube, I don’t know how to make a group thing but if someone else is willing to tackle that I’d be so down to do that!
-
I don’t have a tumblr (yet) but a Google + or Facebook group sounds good. Rotational Youtube or blog posts would be great, I think it would be really cool to have a reasonably in-depth outlet to hear about everyone’s different experiences of queer teen life :)
-
I think I would be happiest with facebook and youtube and tumblr because I alread spend time on those sites, the only thing is, for saftey reasons I think we would all have to friend each other on facebook because I want it to be a secret group (I know we’re not all out and I don’t want this to out anybody). Would that be OK with people?
-
I’m happy for friending to happen…
-
-
I think I’d be happy for Facebook, I’ve not used mine for ages actually, I did have a tumblr which I never used but might look into it again. I think I just joined the Google + group thing, I say think think, I clicked through a few stages and something happened!
-
yeah you did! congrats on being the first
-
-
I have no idea how to make a youtube video and I don’t have a facebook (I know, I’m living in the stone age)
I do have tumblr though. Here’s my link http://hopefulxlife.tumblr.com/
I tend to just reblog random things, mostly gay stuff, but I’d love to have some followers and I’ll certainly follow back! The google group sounds good too. -
I’ve been meaning to get into more social media and this seems like a good place to start! I’ll get on that Google situation right now.

Hey folks! I feel like we should do introductions? is that a thing that people do? I don’t know but I want to know who folks are so, yeah.
-
In that case, hi! I’m Gen, I’m sixteen, and I live in Vancouver. I’m a lesbian although that label feels a little slippery at times and might change in the future.
I’m a writer, an athlete, a performer, an activist, and I basically want to do everything because wow, the world is a pretty big place. I guess I’m an explorer above anything else.…[Read more] -
Hey guys, I’m Kate, 18, from London. I’m doing a year of art school before studying architecture next year at uni. I also play guitar and piano to a mediocre standard, read a lot, try to speak Spanish, and you guys are making me think I should get involved in some activism.
-
I was thinking about going into architecture, that or engineering. I interned at a firm in NY over the summer, and took pre-college classes at Pratt, I was even thinking of applying to Architectural Association School of Architecture.. it’s in London, but I presume you already know that.. I’m leaning a lot further towards Engineering though, but…[Read more]

Hello, I’m Maria, 18, from Houston. I’m getting ready to finish high school, graduate and move on to take over the world! Or really, just go to college to learn things about the world.
-
Hi all! I’m Elinor, I’m sixteen, and I’m from Melbourne. I’m always bad at defining myself, so here’s a couple of different perspectives. According to Urban Dictionary, I’m ‘the mating ritual of multicoloured penguins’ and ‘the goddess of inventive sexual positions.’ According to my sister, I’m ‘the sixth member of One Direction’ and ‘a peasant’.…[Read more]

Hey nice to meet everyone, you guys sound very cool.
I’m Jenny, 17, and I live in NYC. I’m graduating high school this year and I can’t wait to go to college. I like reading, writing and doing yoga. I’m determined to become fluent in Japanese, as its always been a bit of an obsession of mine. I also want to get better at sewing and cooking and…[Read more]-
Hah, thank you! I’ve never really been able to sum myself up in specific terms, and the labels I pick for myself aren’t so much definitions as they are vast oceans with tides and tsunamis and a fair few random shipwrecks. Hence, when asked to sum myself up, I usually just go for what other people have said about me, because otherwise I just end up…[Read more]
-
Your welcome :)
I’m pretty bad at summing myself up too, I think it’s definetly easier to just use things that other people have said. I usually just list things I like to do, because I find that much simpler than looking for words or labels to describe me. People are too complex for short summaries to really, accurately describe them.

Hello! I’m Erin and I’m 18. I’m originally from Utah, but am currently at school in Alaska where I’m studying archaeology and Spanish. I read constantly, dance, and (attempt to) play ice hockey. I’m currently trying to learn how to knit (a useful skill when it’s -40 outside), so I’m quickly amassing a collection of vaguely misshapen clothing-like objects.
-
Hey guys, I’m Taylor and I am 18. I am from North Carolina, but am attending college in South Carolina studying psychology. I love to draw and read when I have the time. I like to play sports with my current favorite sport being racquetball.

Hey. I’m Janelle. I’m 18. I have exactly 1 month of high school left. I live in Michigan, and I’m working on applying to college. I’m an artist. I like plaid flannel, my guitar, mountain bikes and there’s a lot more but if I continue I think I will ramble.
-
Hey. I’m Abby, I’m 17, and I’m from NYC. I go to a boarding school in Georgia. I’m a Junior. I run XC and Track. I like to read a lot of sifi. I have one more year of high school, and I’m just looking to make new friends, get to know new people.
