They're a good bunch of kids, but most (if not all) of them have had a rough time of it in one way or another. You had a rough time of it (whether you knew it at the time or not), and you're a successful, confident queer woman. That's all they need to see - someone who made it. I know you'll do great tonight - wish I were going to be there to hear you speak. :) I think it is exactly what you find to be ordinary, or just doing what you had to survive, that might be inspiring to the youth.

I've even gotten back in touch with a friend or two whose lives went off in completely different directions from mine, yet now we are at a place where we have a new set of things in common that never factored into our previous friendships. I say that image is nothing when it comes to true friends. People grow in different directions and at different rates. I'm all about flipflops and bad hair, myself and am so glad that my near and dear friends don't give a hoot about how I look or behave. I can still be fun like I used to be, but I don't have much need to do it often. Sorry you miss your friend. Hopefully, they will come around soon.

I found your blog when searching for my own. I'll be reading more, but had to comment on this one. I have been on a tare because of these exact same emails I get from Fundie friends and family. They make me sick and disheartened. Look forward to reading your other posts. LOL. I found your blog when searching for my own.

i wasnt really crying about anything specific
i cry
recently a lot
my girlfriend wants to cut her breasts off thats fine with me
she can do whatever
i d love her even with a beard ….and hair all over
but….
i feel too dark- too cynical – to rough
shes so soft and tender

and i guess me being that way has to do with all those pain i got from childhood and later even till 27…ending up in hospitals ect

so ….

i just cryed probably bcs of myself
and her taking every day a new step away from me …the monster….
and finaly her leaving me….
