Society & Culture - 11 November 2006

I don't know... I am a young butch lesbian, and while I'm obviously pretty masculine (or at least neutral) in the way I dress, act, and speak, I don't really think of myself as male, and I never really have. At the same time, I never thought of myself as female or androgynous, either. I've always been a tomboy and puberty was not a great shock, but I now dislike my female body and find myself increasingly thinking about how I might like to be a male. I'm still attracted to females, I just think that maybe in my heart of hearts I am a guy. I don't know though, because aren't transgendered people supposed to know from early childhood that they are really another gender? And if I'm ftm, shouldn't I really want male reproductive parts? Because I would like them but then again I can't justify the costs of potential surgeries. Please do not tell me that it is natural to question this sort of thing, because I know that, but I am really serious here. Please help me! Thank you in advance.

My husband has been stationed in Bahrain. We are LDS. He has, so far, been unable to locate where the church is exactly. He has the address from the LDS web site but not knowing the area/being new there, he can't seem to locate it.
Does anyone have a phone number for the church there?

men to men is it all known (as men) that they ( men)each have sexual needs, that women don't have time for. So as tradition in every ethicnicity Are men all secretly gay? and women don't really know about this behavior? Nor is it society approved or accepted? it is just not talked about? It's just goes along with the mans secret language. The unspoken, is just that left unspoken

Do you ever feel like you're "paying" for the church service when you put some coins or bills in the collection plate? What about when you go into Christian retailing industries? I think the retail industries are nothing more than to make money from the gospel.

how can you choose not to believe in my God when his prophecy comes true?

Zechariah prophesied the Jews return to Jerusalem, Zechariah 8:7-8
Isaiah foretold of the worldwide return of Jews to Israel, Isaiah 43:5-6
Israel's army would be disproportionately powerful, Leviticus 26:3, 7-8 examples; 1948 with a population of 1 million they conquered land against an oposing population of 20million, in 1967 the 6 day war Israel crushed their enemies on all borders, 1973 Israel pushes back Egypt and Syria and occupies land in their country.

I am pretty irritated with the lies that Muhammad , his God Allah and those to preach this joke of a religion preach. You are very intolerant of women and treat them like second class citizens.

Lately I've had a dream about lions. At first we are the hunters-we hunt them down like it's a game, but strangely not with guns. Not afraid at all. But then they start attacking us and succeed in getting us one by one. It's almost "Ghost in the darkness" like. As if they are more intellegent than us. What does this mean?

My brother has aids. He is dying. His first partner died of aids and now his second partner has it. His partner is HIV positive. He and his partner are angry because I have told them I do not want them kissing me or my 4 children. I have two friends that are infectious disease doctors and 1 who is an internal medicine doctor who can NOT guarantee that aids can NOT be transferred to us. Two of his friends are angry with me and I really do not care. I would like to know from someone who is gay if most gay people take a very uncaring and narrowminded position like this.

don't you think that your silence is not helping our cause??

are you spreading the word? are you bringing people to Christ?

if not, you need to start doing so.
