OMG! I'm freaking out right now! I can't believe what I just did! I came out to my parents! Holy Shit! Everything seems so surreal right now. Isn't it supposed to feel like a ton of bricks were lifted from me once I did this? It doesn't. In fact I feel even more stressed out now. frown

I felt forced into it. I really wish I...

Hmmmn...
Mind if I chime in? I dunno, maybe you've come across a post or two of mine, but I'll just assume that you're wondering who the hell I am to be posting in your journal....

#1- Congrats on coming out...to your parents, no less.... I feel thats the toughest one of all... so yaay for you.

#2- Now this is just a visceral gut feeling I get from reading about the hours after telling them... Your mom may be "labeling" in an effort to gain some comfort from saying it outloud....and maybe further adding the "butch" label as a way to grasp the concept that her child is sexual, and wondering what that means to her. I don't really think she was trying to box you into the "label maker" as much as she was trying to become accustom to the reality that her daughter is not straight.

#3- this ones a bit more complicated, and I may be projecting, so just blow me off if it doesn't make sense....
parents, by virtue of their generation have a hard time coping with their kids sexuality in general (they are in their 50-60's noh?)if they learn their children are sexual...they don't want to think about it... but they resign themselves to it. Now add in the gay/lesbian factor. the concept is one they can grasp, eventually they work it out through their heads. Now add that you are sexual with a person because of their being...not their gender and all hell breaks loose.... they cannot grasp the notion that gender is irrelevant.... because of their lifes experience, you are either one or the other...

#3 Give it a bit of time, let mom label you any way she can in order to come to terms with it. over time, she will grow and the two of you can come to a deeper understanding about who you are....no boxes, no labels, just you in all your glory... she will see that you are an amazing spirit who is capable of loving others for their soulfullness.

#4 I think mom...even in her determination to box you in is doing a damn good job. She is at least trying to accept/understand.... let's face it... mom could be labeling you "sick. demented, perverted". It seems to me that she's at least willing to love you no matter what...

#5 It took my parents a long time to deal with my sexuality... I married a man, but have had more female lovers than male, many after being married (we have a poly marriage)so not only did they have to come to terms with my sexuality...but they had to deal with (but still do not accept) that my marriage was not "traditional" as they know it...

Either way...yaay for you!!!

hey, hun. I wanted to see how you were doing a few days after coming out...

Should I admit that I'm on episode 20 of the first season of Queer as Folk and I only started watching in two days ago. I'm totally hooked! Sunshine is adorable and I could only wish to be as lucky as the two beautiful women.

Was kinda surprised so many people took the gay test. So here's another fun one for you if your a...

Are you saying you'd like me better if I was a chick? lol

I scored:
30% Hades
20% Hermes
20% Apollo
10% Dionysus
10% Poseidon
10% Ares

Basically this says I'm a total contradiction. I'm cowardly yet courageous, not especially heroic or dignified yet noble and reasonable, dispassionate yet interested in helping you follow your dreams.

It did comment that this combination is in a guy good for 3somes with two women, something I thought was quite nice.

The "C" word was said last night. Hehe, it's not so bad. Been scared of it for quite sometime. Eh, I think it might do me some good! wink

Yeah girls are drama but in the end sooo worth it. Guys are drama too, and in the end they become a pain in the ass, literally, LMAO. In every good relationship it takes effort, if it...

Furrrrrck.... I'm 43% gay (4% higher than the 39% average)... I think it's related to all the locker room questions and having seen men naked there... I dunno... Maybe it's just a military thing, but their are not many shy people in the locker room. whatever
britney:
39% purity..... What the fuck!!! What did I do so wrong.... Geez, I remember way back when, when I scored like 70% purity.... HA!

OMG! I got the coolest gig ever! I'm working on this incredible film in Hollywood being shot at a castle and this eclectic place called the Gemini Manor. Don't quite know what my title is though, I think it's mostly the directors personal assistant but it also is including things such as 2nd AD, script supervisor and even boom operator, lol. As long as I...

sorry about what's going on? Don't be! I'm stressed but relationships have intricate levels with mixed emotions and she's worth all of my efforts. HeeHee, it's hard for straight men to get it sometimes!

Oh and by the way. She said the "C" word last night. She's my girlfriend and I am hers, no conditons or anything. It was all just confusion on what she thought I wanted. I want her! love

What an amazing weekend! Well deserved after a suck New Year. I knew work would suck. I had some white boy Chrisitan rapper whose lyrics included stuff like.....

"God made Cheeze Wizz so you should squeeze it!"

"Coke, Fries, Cheeseburgers.......that's just what I want!"

"The Jesus Mullet Song"

And to top it off this Christian comedian starts bagging on people from SF, saying they...

She said to me last night, "You make my heart beat so fast it suffocates me!" It made me melt! Too fucking cute!

Earlier in the night it wasn't too cute though. At work we kinda got in our first spat. I was mad at her. She makes me feel shitty sometimes when I pay her a complement and she tells me I'm wrong or...

Okay -- you're gonna hate me, but I think Big Fish is a video rental at best.

1. I hate movies where terminal illness solves all problems.

2. Father and son didn't speak for several years because the dad refused to tell his son the "boring" real versions of things that happened -- what the hell kind of father would value telling whoppers over his relationship with his son? Dad's job is to do what's necessary to make his son feel unconditionally loved, right?

3. The basic message, a romantic lie is better than the boring truth, sounds like it came from Bush's press secretary when he describes the war in Iraq.

But I'm really a romantic guy at heart ... I tear up whenever I see Sonny pull up to the toll booth in The Godfather. Poor James Caan .... sigh. Sorry, I need a minute to compose myself.

NYE -- I'm gonna go to a local bar and drink! lol!

Fuckin'-a... Hope I look that hot when I get the flu...

Thanks for the compliment.

Big Fish, eh? Never even heard of it, then again, I don't watch tv. I'll have to check it out, but only cuz you recomended it, and if it sux, you'll be held accountable, little girl...... Muahahahahaha (that's my evil Dom laugh - ferocious, aren't I?) whatever

There's the old 70's Linda Rondstadt song ... I'm in pain just knowing I remember the words to Linda Rondstadt songs ...

Love is a rose but you know you don't pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
Love is a rose but you know you don't pick it
You lose your love when you say the word mine

Personally ... I prefer what Gang of 4 had to say about love ...

Love is like a case of anthrax
And that's one thing you don't want to catch

All that, and you get "bored in your bedroom"?

Welcome back smile

She sounds like a better date than me. With her it's shopping, sex, and emotional support. I'm mostly about belching, farting, and bitching about the Fox network.

Sometime between between Xmas and New Year we gotta get together to grab a beverage and shoot the shit.

Hey... noticed the post in BDSM and I see LTrain is already stalking you... hehehe. Some to the clubs with us! We (the SGLA people) usually try and hit up a few things each week... Burgundy Room on Wednesdays, Perversion on Thursdays, Friday's is Kittys, and Bar Sinister on Saturdays.

The crowds vary from 2-3 SG people to sometimes like 30. All depends on a number of different things. Sound fun?
