i need to put my feelings somewhere. *looks around* is here okay?
i kinda had a first date -first consensual same-sex experience that ended in some cuddles and handholding (it was one of those “let’s go somewhere as friends and hang out” things). i think it went well, but something happened – it would be TMI to tell here – but that kinda made for…[Read more]-

Good for you for taking responsibility for your own actions, but it’s important to remember that taking responsibility is not the same as beating yourself up over something. It’s easier said than done, but try to be kind to yourself! If whatever is going on is serious enough that you’re seeing a counselor for it, then you might want…[Read more]

If you haven’t already, please contact Intern Elli, Marika, or myself to be added to our FB Chicagostraddlers group as well. We use chat pretty much 24/7. Seriously, it a little gross how much we all love each other. :)

You guuuuuuys. I have feelings.
It’s the feeling of “I’m 24 and I’ve never dated because I’ve only been out for less than a year and now I’m in the Philippines in the Peace Corps and EVEN IF I defied all odds and met another gay/bi girl who was patient enough to deal with all my personality quirks, I’d get to see her like MAYBE once a month and…[Read more]

oh man. I just want to give you a really long hug…
first of all, congratulations on coming out! also, it’s not bad to never have dated at 24. or 26. don’t beat yourself up for that. I bet you are a really awesome person doing awesome and interesting things. peace corpse! FTW!
the worst part should not be the “I’ve never dated”-part, but the…[Read more]-
Aw, thanks. A really long hug is pretty much what I need, but sympathetic ears are just as good. It’s not all bad, but there are days when the loneliness and the feelings of being against-the-odds just wear you down. But that’s all Peace Corps, I think, not just Gay Peace Corps.

Yup, one of my friends is a straight dude and the other one is a straight chick. I tend to check out girls with the dude, because um, the straight chick just doesn’t get it. And she can’t relate *at all*. Irritating! But yeah, I live in straightsville too. All the girls I think are cute want to flirt with my cute male friend. Argh.
I’ve never…[Read more]

Tumblr. Mostly I do Tumblr.
Well, and I do talk about/check out girls with the straight guy friend, but it lost some of the luster recently he actually started having success with one of them. Lotta flirting going on, which is great and I’m happy for him, but it kind of drove home the fact that I can’t do that, you know? I’m really jealous that…[Read more]

While I do know one other lesbian in town, I’m pretty sure she doesn’t read Autostraddle. But she should!
I live in northern Illinois, not quite close enough to Madison, Chicago, Milwaukee, or any other large city. And it sorta sucks.

For anyone that reads as many webcomics as I do, there’s this WONDERFUL site called Piperka (http://piperka.net). You mark which comics you read, and it tells you when they’ve updated! It makes it really easy to keep up with a large number of comics.

Joining this group as I will very soon be the only Straddler in the Village. In a week I’ll be moving back to Central California Fresno Area. Which, for those that are not savvy to California but know their Glee, is that area Chris Colfer is from. That area he doesn’t say kind things about due to the super conservative-gender rigid nature of the…[Read more]

I’m sorry. I’ve been to that area (one of my stepsisters lives around there, my mom lives in the mountains north of there) and… yeah, it’s not the kindest place to GSMs (gender & sexuality minorities). There might be some resources around now, though? Some places will surprise you–the culture of an area can vary widely over the years, and it’s…[Read more]
