hi everyone! so i was kind of a super lurker on autostraddle, meaning i never used my account, but i read it EVERY SINGLE DAY and make everyone else around me read it. and then camp happened and i was like, shit. i should probably show that i’m actually real/here/going to camp. ALSO i bought a head lamp yesterday, because i never went to an…[Read more]

i’m on a roadtrip with my friend right now and she brought a headlamp which i used many times to find my snacks last night. what i’m trying to say is: this purchase was a really good idea.
-
hmm, i just read the original post on camp and it mentioned there would be a group created for campers by the higher powers that be. i looked for but couldn’t find anything. i don’t want this group to be redundant! thoughts?

Genderstraddlers 11 years, 8 months agoHello everyone! I’m new to Auto. This group appears to a perfect fit for me.

Yay! I’m glad you think so. It’s been a little quiet ’round these parts of late- if I ever get out from under this pile of uni work I might actually get around to posting something again. You should of course feel free to post about anything gender-related that piques your interest :)
Also, welcome to Autostraddle!

Twin Cities Straddlers 11 years, 8 months agoGuys! Do you like feminist/queer theater? I bet you do. Come see Inherently Human, a play about American women in the twentieth century, written and performed by two awesome Autostraddlers. We would love your support!

Genderstraddlers 11 years, 8 months agoI think I’m going to post this question in a few groups to try to maximize advice… Please comment if you have any thoughts!
I’m a queer cis femme college grad who just started seeing a female-bodied genderqueer person who goes by the pronouns they/their/them. I’m doing my best to get used to using these pronouns, which I consistently do when…[Read more]
-
Well, as someone who is only out to some people as trans, I ask people when I tell them about me to continue using my old name and pronouns in public. My guess then for you would to be continuing using female pronouns until you’re able to talk with them about it.
-
Nikki, thank you for your advice! I thought I had responded but apparently not–sorry! See my response to smartypants below if you’re interested in how things turned out… thanks again for your input.

I maybe a little late to this party but wanted to lend some support–and also, applaud both your sensitivity and sense of politeness. I’m a big fan of being polite! Perhaps since your original comment was about a month ago, you’d be willing to let us know how it evolved for you?–what did you decide? How did you choose to negotiate this?–hope all is well.
-
Hey! Sorry for the slow response… saw this at work last week and didn’t get to reply. I ended up finally talking to the person about the pronoun question a couple weeks ago. They told me that they prefer for me/people to use their pronouns (they/their) in the company of others, since using she/her can create an uncomfortable disconnect on the…[Read more]

Well done Lindsay for having that conversation with your friend–and if I remember correctly, a romantic friend, n’est ce pas? In which case, I hope it’s going well…..
W/r/t friends who keep blowing it with the pronouns–I think calling on it “in the moment” (no Italics!) is probs the way I would go. Like small children and puppies, training…[Read more]

CATS 11 years, 8 months ago
Alright lesbians, import question. I had a roommate for the last 2 1/2 years, and my
rookie had a cat. I’ve relocated recently and brought my cat along, who lives with the rookie’s cat since she was a kitten. I work long hours, and noe she is all by herself. Does I need to rescue another kitty so she has a friend? Will she be lonely?!-
My roomie* had a cat
-
Is there enough space for two cats? Can you afford it? Do all other practicalities of having two cats work out? If yes: I’d say, go for it! It sounds like your kitty would probably enjoy the company! (And do ask your local shelter for a cat who’d do well with another cat, cause not all of them do.)
-
How much space do two cats need? I am in a one bedroom apartment. But the other things, yes.
-
That depends on the house, of course. Can they go outside? Are they allowed in the other rooms of the house? Can and are they allowed to roam the hallway etc.?
-
-
-
Well, keep in mind that some cats do not get along with eachother if they are adopted at seperate times. I got a cat ten years ago and then got another two years later. They totally hate eachother. Sometimes they get very territorial so getting another cat might not be a good idea. Try making a seriously awesome space for your kitty which is tall…[Read more]

Twin Cities Straddlers 11 years, 9 months agoHey lady-lovin ladies, last night was caucus night, did any of you go? I was just gonna say we should all do our part to support opposition to the MN marriage amendment. Did you know that some people don’t even know anything about it? Did you know that all you have to do is start a conversation with someone? You don’t have to debate with anyone or…[Read more]
