Who's Queer , Here and Proud?
I know I put it kinda bluntly in the header. How 'bout "Who's Queer (les,gay, tran- pre/post, bi, tri, and high-lil joke there, ok) Here? Doesn't matter. This is a FUN post- NOT a place to argue or rip people to shreads. Now no cats fights, hissy fights- or whatever. Just a thread for the queers to say hi to one another. Good enough? I think so. So I'll start if I must. Hey world! Love everyone here! So many people have made this site so welcoming and very special. I hope to meet more and more people. Hopefully make more friends. I used to have a msn community for NYC lesbians and bisexuals, but it got shut down :Sad face: So I hope to meet many wonderful queer (and of course straight on this site)people here. May 24 05 10:21 am Link Yes! I am as straight as they get in the midwest states, but when you work in an industry where it's not about your sexual desires, but your creativity that is all that matters. To many people place things on the surface of who they want us to be. It's just a sexual desire we all have...so to judge a few on those needs we would be better to look at our nations government to see what dark scerets they hold...being gay is no secret for those willing to be out there, but take a pride in what it is that we all have in common... May 24 05 10:29 am Link Alex- have nuthin but love for you baby. Really. Read your post. Very smart. I love all people. I do. This thread is nothing but fun. That's all I can say. I'm not making a speech or a statement whatsoever- truth- no lie. I just want people that are queer and proud- to say...ok I know this is a big step...but all I'm asking for is a "Hello, how's it going?" That's all, k? So please...pretty pretty please...can everyone on this site who has something they got to get off their chest that's wrong with society/world/universe just realize this thread is not the place to do so. As are most:) Love, Beans May 24 05 10:42 am Link I'm very Queer when it comes to my creative take on Photography. I like to indulge in the outer limits of life. The word Queer is meant as in it's own definetion" Strange some what odd or inperfect. Nothing to do with Gay Bi Lesbian or what have you. All I can say is who the fu_k cares if your bi gay lesbian, cross dresser or different gender other than male or female like a he/she or she/he. Photography gives us a chance to bring out the creative aspect an any image one as a photographer takes and what a model represents in them selfs. Lets just have fun and learn from each other. May 24 05 10:49 am Link Since I was raised by transgenders, the hard-of-hearing/deaf and the plain stupid- all I will say is- that's fierce! Anyone else feel me? May 24 05 11:08 am Link I ain't gay yo! teehee! May 24 05 02:57 pm Link Posted by *Serenabeana1*: Would you still date sraight man? heheheheee... May 24 05 03:02 pm Link Posted by *Serenabeana1*: Close i grew up next door to a guy that walked the streets in lingerie with a 5 foot double ended Dildo hangin outa his rear,Dragging on the ground like a tail.. May 24 05 03:15 pm Link Fred Ward: "Why Beaver...you look peculiar" The closest I can get to being queer is my online impersonation of a giggling Sailor Moon..."ihiii hiii hii". * Do Not Filter My Search Results * May 24 05 03:31 pm Link Hugh, uh, yeah, the words cross contamination and blood bourne pathogens come to mind, but that's for a different thread. Uh, proud heterosexual here, but I willl say that down at the shop we love gay men and lesbians. They get a lot of piercings, tattoos and high quality, high end body jewelry. The rule is, when buying body jewelry, you do not want to go with the lowest bidder when purchasing hardware for your software. May 24 05 03:34 pm Link I am a lesbian and proud of it. May 24 05 04:42 pm Link As straight as they come - love women. I've got a different view somehow - most feminist women label me a feminist. Probably 90% of my clients are women - 70% of them are at least bi. It's always been a great thing for me because if I ever gave the hint of exploiting women there is this gang of women ready to kick my ass. I did a series a couple years ago featuring gay performers and learned a lot from it. So far the most feminine woman I've shot has been a man - in her wedding dress - with froofy little dog. All the drag queens I shot I only knew as women previously - all the Drag Kings I shot I only knew as women previously. Gender is overrated ... May 24 05 11:19 pm Link Posted by Hidden Violence: Me too! May 24 05 11:24 pm Link I'm here, I'm straight, and I'm proud. Although, sometimes being a straight artist makes me feel a little queer. But all ya'll fags are welcome to my Big Gay Barbecues. Every Sunday, weather permitting. They earned their name early on... my girl and I started inviting our friends over every Sunday for hotdogs and whatnot. After the second or third, I realized there were a lot of comments about how many big, warm hotdogs I could eat. And I started getting asked if I had any Zima's or Bacardi O (or whatever those things are called) instead of Tecate. And then I realized. I don't have any straight friends. So. I still host the Big Gay Barbecue every Sunday. But on Monday, I go down to my buddy's motorcycle shop. Because sometimes it's nice to just drink a beer and talk about motors... not Christina Agulerra and Mariah Carrey. May 24 05 11:32 pm Link I'm Bi.have always been.females are just more attractive in or out of clothes. xxx MP May 24 05 11:34 pm Link I'm a straight man, but when I get into photography mode I use the word "fabulous" a lot more. It seems to make everyone more comfortable. I've also been known to rattle off a list of male celebrities I'd be willing to make out with... May 24 05 11:40 pm Link Well, I'm here, but I'm not proud. I'm a 2. May 24 05 11:41 pm Link Posted by Mistress Purgatori: So true. May 24 05 11:42 pm Link Posted by BlacklistVisual: Posted by Mistress Purgatori: So true. but you take ass kicking photos...so that makes up for your physical "flaws"... May 25 05 12:06 am Link 4 out of 5 friends polled said that I could qualify as queer...in a wide variety of ways. The fifth one fell off the roof trying to look into my bedroom. May 25 05 12:37 am Link Speaking of which Gay Pride is coming up! WOO HOO! I will actually get to sit and watch the parade this year and make fun of the bible thumping holly rollers yelling at the drag queens and then the queens putting those assholes in their place. May 25 05 07:28 am Link Posted by theda: Pardon my ignorance, but what is a 2? May 25 05 07:32 am Link YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN!!! sorry...maybe it's just me but I am so OVER gay people rabbiting on about how happy and proud they are for the past 20 years or so. This business (at least my part of it) is run by them so I really dont feel that they are a misunderstood minority any more..in fact they are pretty much a mafia these days. OK. We got the picture. We understand. Give it a rest and get on with your life. and perhaps start passing us non gays a few jobs every now and again. Cheers. May 25 05 07:40 am Link Posted by John Swoger: Posted by theda: Pardon my ignorance, but what is a 2? Kinsey scale. Mostly straight, but kinda gay. May 25 05 09:18 am Link Posted by *!photofashion!*: I'll tell you why...my best friend is a lesbian (I am straight). May 25 05 10:14 am Link Posted by Naomi Jay: Naomi has a grip on it. Visibility is one of the keys way minority groups gain acceptance and civil rights. May 25 05 10:17 am Link ::::Reese pops in to moderate, but it looks like Theda has it all under control::: "Bummer... Nothing to see in here..." May 25 05 10:23 am Link Posted by theda: Posted by Naomi Jay: Naomi has a grip on it. Visibility is one of the keys way minority groups gain acceptance and civil rights. sorry to burst your bubble but whereas it is quite true that in the hicks gay people get a lot of stick and hassle from the morally ignorant in the fashion/ photography industry here in Europe and in nice big forward thinking places like NY non gays are the MINORITY group. May 25 05 01:05 pm Link Homosexuality is far more accepted in the fashion industry, but even the fruiotiest of fashion stylist have to leave the industry bubble once in a while and be exposed to the rest of the world that has different standards on average. Europe does tend to be a bit more forward thinking the the US, but even in oh-so-hip NYC, we have our share of homophobia and gay bashing. So Bruce Webber may be on top in fashionland, but when he walks out onto the street, he's just another fag. May 25 05 01:37 pm Link Posted by theda: actually that is pretty insulting to gays since the words you can use to describe him if you know how the creep operates are a lot worse May 25 05 01:44 pm Link Posted by *Serenabeana1*: I just wanted to share this with you. I think it was funny. May 25 05 01:56 pm Link Well I got hit in the back of my head from someone throwing something at me... I was at lunch in school resting my head and loving this girl that I like... I didn't see who did it but I am more than sure they did it because I am a lesbian, there are quite a lot of homophobes in my school. "sigh" I cant wait to get out next year. May 25 05 02:43 pm Link Posted by MagicImagePhoto: Posted by *Serenabeana1*: I just wanted to share this with you. I think it was funny. Very amusing May 25 05 02:46 pm Link Posted by Hidden Violence: Darlin' I totally hear ya. I know how that feels. So sorry to hear that. And THANK YOU for actually following the thread- props for your reading ability. hehe. GOOOOO QUEERS! HAHA. and straight people who are cool. May 25 05 02:53 pm Link I'm as queer as yo mama! But seriously its all about love, not whats in your pants. May 25 05 03:00 pm Link My mama's in my pants? like...EWWWWWWW! GROSSS! May 25 05 03:03 pm Link Posted by *Serenabeana1*: Posted by Hidden Violence: Darlin' I totally hear ya. I know how that feels. So sorry to hear that. And THANK YOU for actually following the thread- props for your reading ability. hehe. GOOOOO QUEERS! HAHA. and straight people who are cool. Yep... Everyones sexuality should be accepted May 25 05 04:40 pm Link I absolutely agree. btw- I love Virginia- I'm going there this August! May 25 05 04:49 pm Link Posted by Naomi Jay: About a little over a year ago Gay marriage was santioned in Multnomah county where I live and to honest I thought it was the best thing to ever happen in my lifetime. But then the Oregon supreme court decided not to recognize those happy couples that that got married that day. Why can't gays have the same exact same rights as straight people? They pay their taxes and they vote too. May 25 05 09:39 pm Link Ok lets have a real discussion.? just a THOUGHT! May 26 05 04:20 am Link |
