I feel like i have to live by some kind of standards in being a butch or femme. just sayin.
-
yeah i get you. i feel like as long as i continue being in limbo i won’t attract any sort of girls whatsoever. which is a depressing thought.
-
I do not know anyone who has point this out, but this is such a good point. The femmes are like shmexi with their pumps and short skirts and the butches are like radiating homogayness. I on the other have to wear a rainbow button.
-
hahah exactly! nobody knows i am bi unless i tell them. which is good for hiding it from my parents but bad for the queer dating scene.
-
Like what they all say, You can’t get out till you’re out! I also hide it from my parents (conservative christians! word). They think I’m just turning into a typical ultra feminist. As long as I don’t say the L word, have a big confrontation about it or bring a girl home. It’s just gonna be to a point where it’s so obvious that I’m gay, but…[Read more]
-
holy shit i think we have the exact same life!! gotta love conservative christian parents. the only way mine are ever knowing is if i’m considering a civil union/marriage.
-
It’s going to be like when 15 years later, I’m gonna call my mom and like “Hey mom! I’m engaged!” and then her name’s gonna be like Pat or something and then my parents are gonna think “Aww Patrick! What a lovely name!” and then when we show up at the doorstep, “Hi mom! Meet my fiance, Patricia!” de lulz. I’m actually not gonna do that since I…[Read more]

My parents were like that, so I never “came out” I just started bringing girls home.
and then right before my dad died, we were watching food network and cat cora was on and he said “so, cat cora’s a lesbian too” and I said “yup” and he said “cool, just makin sure” and that was that. wasn’t nearly as scary as i thought it would be.
so i guess…[Read more]
-
aww that’s sweet. I kept wishing my parents would surprise me but they’re just so predictable.
-
wow. i can’t imagine such acceptance from my family. i casually dropped the fact that i didn’t think homosexuality was a sin and we all got into a heated argument in which only one out of six family members (my lil sis) was on my side. woot.
-
haha… I’m already turning my younger brothers into the “dark” side. I constantly scold them for saying “that’s so gay!”.
-
woof. it get’s better? idk my whole life my parents were so anti gay, they constantly talked shit about homo’s and how we’re going to hell and my dad did that whole “well, if they weren’t so OBVIOUS” thing (along with the “i just don’t want them hitting on me” which i once got grounded for replying “they wouldn’t, gays have taste”) that always…[Read more]

Does anyone have any advice about going out to eat with a group of people when you’re vegan? I haven’t really had this problem a lot because I’m homeschooled and don’t go out much, but I’m going off to college next year and will hopefully have real friends.
I always feel like a pain because I hate salad and a lot of other places don’t have good…[Read more]-
Salad is usually horrible, agreed! I don’t know where you’re based, but Indian(/Pakistani/Bangladeshi) restaurants in UK often have veggie curries, which, unless they use ghee, should be vegan.
East Asian places (e.g. Wagamama’s) should also be quite a good bet, since they don’t often use dairy. Wagamama’s has a folder of allergy etc advice,…[Read more] -
Memorize which restaurants in the area have vegan stuff so when someone wants to go out to eat you can suggest some places right off the bat. Accept that you might be eating plain salad sometimes, or just get a drink and eat beforehand, and talk a little about how you’re vegan and hopefully if your new friends are nice they’ll make sure you’re…[Read more]
-
I only ever eat Asian food (chinese, thai, indian, japanese). This solves everything. Or alternatively look on happycow.com or urbanspoon.com or eatability.com for veg-friendly restaurants.
-
Thanks for the advice everyone! I’ll definitely try to find out some good vegan spots to eat beforehand…and check out those websites, too. :)
-
-
Mediterranean food can be pretty vegetarian friendly as well. Also, a lot of college towns have a large enough vegetarian population to support a vegetarian restaurant or two, so you might look into that option as well. I did my undergrad at University of Wyoming and even they had a veggie restaurant, and that town didn’t even have a place to…[Read more]

Okay girls (and boys! Are there boys? Hi!):
Do any of you camp? I’m going into the woods for two weeks with a bunch of students, and I’ve never really done vegetarian camping. Esp since I have to prepare meat-foods for my students. I haven’t cooked meat in a while… argh.
Since I won’t have fresh veggies or anything, what do you recommend…[Read more]
-
I’ve seen several different brands of single-serve shelf-stable hummus, would that do? My go-to when hiking is hummus, crackers, and raisins.
-
ok i do alot of veggie camping and have several go tos i use. though i’m not quite sure since you wont have fresh veggies (is that because of a backpack space thing?) assuming you will have access to fire and a pan i dice all the veggies up prior to leaving. make a container of tofu scramble, premade blk bean burgers, chopped root vegetables to…[Read more]

I think this term explains me-
Plaid and comic book tees
Skinny jeans
SO many adidas/chucks/PF Flyers
Shortish hair that straddles the femme/dyke fence
Then a steep drop into an obsession with eye shadow, eyeliner and smelling awesome via body splash -
