2003 San Diego, buzz cut

Plenty of lil dips**ts thought I was gay

It's ironic that I am a woman and liked men

Mister redelings, a crush, barked at me so much that I have not been attracted to anyone after that. 2006 :roll:


He told me that it was "lying" for me to ask him to call me "he" instead of "she"

Ass hole

Maybe the opposite of straight is not gay, but asexual


f**k mister redelings

Yeah, that's high school. Fortunately, real life is NOT high school. At age 60, my Facebook friends list is full of classmates who once picked on me and have grown up. Also, lots of women who once turned me down for dates.

I concur. During my own HS years, many classmates were exploring their individual sexualities. In fact, I sometimes encountered a pair of lesbian classmates who often made out in front of me regardless if they knew I was there or not.

Given my religious upbringing and the culture of the time (mid-to-late-2000s), I believed LGBT people to be weird and a source for "moral corruption." But during the course of my senior year, the school counselor (who was openly gay) helped me acknowledge the fact that LGBT people are no different from straight people and to him I will be grateful.

I've been mistaken for being gay before & I've also questioned if I was gay before. I'm sort of on the asexuality spectrum & I don't have much interest in having sex outside of a serious romantic relationship even thou I am attracted to women. I also don't conform to the stereotypical guy in lots of ways. When I was single gay guys were the only people who were interested in me so I considered having a gay relationship thinking it might be better than being alone.

that's is indeed a question that i can elaborate on and am going to fully open up on this question.

my voice was higher pitch than others in school and a few people would often pick on my voice and how it 'sounded gay' and i got directly told that i 'was gay' or 'acted gay'. was hit, spat on, shouted at and pushed against walls a few times by my oldest brother for 'sounding gay' and 'being gay'. it was actually just that i was very tense and anxious, having light sensitivity and all, so maybe i came of as more 'feminine'? i've actually managed, through the years, to make my voice sound deeper, manually. i choose to keep moving forward and am in the process of redeeming my lost time and soul. i hope to busk some light hearted political funk with my loop pedal i've been working on in the streets soon.

i recently got called "a big gay." mint. and "are you gay?" a few times, so yes, people have and do think, or wonder if i'm gay.

i'm not gay or straight sexually but i am emotionally attracted to guys and (maybe concerningly), seem to be more emotionally attracted to younger boys (kids). maybe because i never had friends at school? i relate to them better than anyone else but never related to kids or talked or hung out with kids when i was a kid. the emotional attraction has sometimes contained intrusive fantasies.

a group of people walked past me at college earlier this year and one of the people in the group shouted "you f*cked that little boy, didn't you?" i had no idea what he was talking about and have never done such thing, but regarding the above paragraph, it did manifest some paranoia that people where figuring me out, inwardly. i do not relate to people my age now so maybe thats the root of my emotional attraction to young boys, in the present day.

going to do some gardening now, bye!
