I would like to post a response to something I found on Facebook, the group description for a group called “MAN’S RULES”. You can find this group description in a blockquote (once you click “more” of course…) and my response to each point, below the blockquote, in order. This may very well be a joke, but there are some men who actually believe that they can still be chauvinistic cavemen. This absolutely disgusts me and makes me thankful that I am a lesbian.

Breaking Up is Hard

Especially when you are the one who is being broken up with. My boyfriend broke up with me a fortnight ago and I think I am finally starting to sort it out. When he broke up with me on Friday, I wept all the way home. And I think that I may very well still be under it when I really said that I was over it. I mean, I went to talk to him on the Sunday after to tell him that I was over it and I kinda cringed when I heard that he made out with another guy (from him, I don’t like rumours and don’t accept them as fact). And the next time we were both at the Alley, I saw him with another guy and it was tearing me up inside. Not to mention the fact that (on that day) I had a job interview and was running on only 2 hours of sleep. Continue reading ‘Breaking Up is Hard’

My biggest issue in the LGBT community

What is my biggest issue when it comes to LGBT advocacy? That is a very good question to ask, because there are a lot of issues that warrant equal attention. There are inequalities in adoption, a lot of internalized homophobia in a lot of people and there is no desire in the public school system to start teaching tolerance for LGBT people. A lot of people think that my priorities may have changed when I was gay bashed at Safeway the other day. But alas, they have not. While the incident at Safeway does pose a question of whether or not a city is truly LGBT-friendly, it has not changed my core passion. The issue that I fight for the most, and the one closest to my heart, is equal marriage rights. Continue reading ‘My biggest issue in the LGBT community’

You know, it’s odd. I have never thought that I could possibly like a guy. But last night was enough to make me feel that this is so right and that I should pursue this with everything I’ve got. When we both woke up that morning, we both had a breakfast that mainly consisted of pizza and biscuits. And yes, it was good. And I learned something new about my boyfriend, he does not like to kiss while eating. Continue reading ‘The First Day Together’
