-dane:
I mean really? I found out someone I met recently was almost 30. That’s so close to being 40 which is then right around the corner to being 50 which only means they’ll be retiring soon! So I guess I’m meeting people who are getting over the hill.

Chua didn’t let her own girls go out on play dates or sleepovers. She didn’t let them watch TV or play video games or take part in garbage activities like crafts. Once, one of her daughters came in second to a Korean kid in a math competition, so Chua made the girl do 2,000 math problems a night until she regained her supremacy.

I had unprotected sex with a girl once
I was in college, we were at a wedding reception, and she promised me she was on the pill.
For seven months I was in emotional hell. Then I saw her in a Walmart and took the deepest breath of my life to that point.

Shit's getting real in the Prop 8 appeal. →
c-newt:
The 9th Circuit has certified a question to the California Supreme Court as to whether the Prop 8 initiative backers have standing to appeal. In other words, the federal appeals court said, “we don’t know if California law allows this, so let’s ask the California Supreme Court.”

Furthermore, Anonymous
I’m not sure if you follow lady88 (Mel) or fattynatty (Nat), but they are lambs and are full of amazing experience and wisdom beyond their years. If you don’t follow them, do. I think that you can gain a lot from reading about their lives.
Anonymous asked: Your relationship gives me hope. I live in family who is definitely not excepting of my choices or..just me in general. I'm not sure if I'm lesbian or bisexual. All I know is I'm really in love with a girl. And, reading about you and Bruce...and your life together. It inspires me and shows me that one day things will be different.
