So, I am 17 years of age, and I have been out a little over a year now. You would think that I would have some knowledge on how to be part of the greater gay community, yet I don’t. I’m trying to create myself, my look, and my life in general. First of all, I want people (specifically other LESBIANS) to look at me and know that I’m gay. I know…[Read more]

Autostraddle has some sweet fashion advice! Have you read any of their articles yet? Also I like to look at Qwear (http://qwear.tumblr.com) for inspiration and advice. Also maybe an alternative-lifestyle haircut? Autostraddle has some cool galleries of haircuts too.
Obviously just wear what makes you feel comfortable and confident and peoples…[Read more]

I have an issue. I’m volunteering at this newspaper and there’s a guy who works there part-time. He’s a nice dude, but obvs I’m not into that whole thing. He seems to think we have this connection and he’s constantly flirting with me and telling me he wants to get together at weekends.
The major issue is that he’s from a country where queers…[Read more]-
You could also keep turning him down for weekend get-togethers and it might hit him one day that you’re not interested.
I don’t tell people I’m gay. I let my body language let them know I’m not interested. Usually works.

Some dudes really canβt take a hint, though, especially those who have been nursing a particular crush for a while. You often need to be direct.

Well, you could always use the lie straight girls use β βI have a boyfriend.β(although of course, this has a lot of potential to backfire)
More seriously, though, I would just be direct and tell him you’re not interested. If you’re worried you might reading too much into his behavior (as I was when I was in this situation a few months ago), just…[Read more]

Well it seems my problem has solved itself. He got a new job. Now I just have to hope that he doesn’t call me every weekend like he said he wanted to.
I don’t mind telling him I’m queer but I just don’t think he’d get it. Ah well. I need not fret any longer.

Hello,
I recently started a GSA/QSU/Coalition at my high school. We had a really good turn out for our first meeting, considering my school is really unspirited about most things. I am trying to think of topics that we could discuss at our next meeting. Any suggestions?-
PS: We already talked about how we feel the our school’s environment concerning the LGBT community, although we had an all girl turn out.
-
You can talk about who in the group is out and who’s not! In my GSA we always made sure noone inadvertently outed someone in their other social situations by mentioning what they may have said. We also discouraged talking about personal information from GSA outside of GSA.
You can also discuss whether anyone’s facing any hardships like coming…[Read more]

Thank you. I will keep them in mind.

Hey straddlers so i have a non-straddler question that involves my dad. My dad is quitting smoking and i know this is gonna be crazy hard for him but i was wondering if anyone had any advice to make this easy on him? Like atmosphere wise? If anyone has gone through the process of quitting i could use some advice. I’m so proud of him and thought i…[Read more]

When my father quit smoking he’d put the money he want to spend on cigarettes and put it in a jar and bought a new stereo with the money. It worked really well, but he didn’t have all that much trouble stopping.
My mother was a different story. She would look for something to fight about, so she could become upset and use it as an excuse to…[Read more]
