In sex ed, our professor taught us that it doesn't matter who you sleep with, it's what gender you PREFER to be with that determines your sexual orientation. She prefers men over women but likes them both, so would you consider her BI or straight?

I read many Q's that people ask concerning their sexuality. It seems that many people on this site don't really know their sexuality. Don't you think that if your old enough to have sex then you should be old enough to know your sexuality . If you don't know your sexuality then do you think you should be having sex with that gender ?

I dont want to offend anyone so please dont take this the wrong way. Iv always wondered this... if gay people are ment to be gay or are born gay, then why do men act like woman and woman act like men? im dont mean all of them and i like gay people its just that all the people iv met have been either feminine (men) or shave their heads and dress like men (lesbians) so i dont understand it all. If people were ment to be attracted to the same sex aswell then wouldnt men act like men and woman act like woman? plaese dont be offended im not gay so just class me as naive.

My Mother is going thru one, she's in her late 30's, naturally young looking and all but wears leopard print shirts at times, listens to rock, likes to take belly dance lessons, acts like a child and is free-spirited.
What if she's like this for 10 years?
I think she was always like that.
And younger men are almost always attracted to her.
would it be silly if she was like this 15 -20 yrs. from now?
DID you ever go thru some midlife crisis or midlife transition?
How did you get over it?
thank you!!

I had never thought of this before. My partner Gwenneth and I knew each other for 3 years before buying a house and living together. This lasted for 42 years.
What was your experience in this regard ?
Love,
Rose P.

How, my dear friends in the LGBT section, do you deal with learning that someone you loved and trusted (not as a lover) has betrayed you?

I'm kind of in vent mode now, I won't bore you with the details, but I'm feeling pretty destructive right now.

I hate when Jews say that the Palestinians have 11 other Arab countries to go to why dont they go there You want to know why they dont go there its because they want their country the Palestinian people are Palestinian their now Jordanian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Iranian okay they are Palestinian and they want to reside in Palestine telling a Palestinian person to go reside in Egypt when they are Palestinian and want to reside in Palestine is ridiculous and the only reason Jews say that the Palestinians have other countries to go to is because they want the whole land for themselves and they dont want any body other than themselves to have more and more and more of that land

In the proogram you have to go through 12 steps ( actually you go through the 12 steps the rest of your non drinking life)... question is if the AA book syas" these steps are MERELY SUGGESTIONS" then WHY does one have to go through the 12 steps...why can't they just quit drinking and go to meetings..period

Honestly, I've always wanted to change the world one person at a time. So I really want to sponsor a child in the CCF which actually would excite me! However, my mom wouldn't approve of a new, extended, member of our family. She doesn't think it would be in my best interest (as I want to go to college to become a surgeon and I'm exceptional in school).

I'm very deep and I have the HUGEST heart (which is often a bad trait because of my disadvantage to go far in life...I let someone else go before me and as I know it, to be successful, you have to be demanding and strong. I don't even swear:-), never made out and I'm not even ugly...I've had many opportunities to do so but never did.

Anyways, why must I be constantly held back by my mom. I love her but sometimes I just feel like I need to take a stand for myself. I mean there are times when she tells me stuff and I just say I'm not dumb and I know already. She treats me like a baby in a way.

I just want to help a kid

I just asked this in the 'other society and culture' section, and got a lot of answers where people thought the school was right in doing so. I wanted to ask it here as well to see how the responces would differ.

She got kicked out for wearing heels and a skirt. The heels were dress-code safe, as was the skirt. The dress code says nothing about males wearing skirts or heels, however, but even if it did I wouldn't think the rule should apply to her.

Her clothes weren't distracting or slutty in any way, either. She looked very classy, actually.

Do you think its right or wrong that she got kicked out? Why?

Why would anyone do that, you might ask. It used to be an old holloween prank in the older days. I know of some young fellows (at the time) that used to do that sort of thing. Fershame - ya, sure.

We recently discussed Leona Helmsley's $12 million bequest for the care of her dog, "Trouble."

Most people believe that this amount of money for one small dog is excessive.

Animal protection groups are calling for Michael Vick to pay $10 million for the care and rehabilitation of the 53 dogs that were rescued from the dogfighting compound at his Virginia home.

Do you agree or disagree that this is excessive?

I'm a girl and I have a friend who could be gay. I support homosexuals 100% though, since I am bi myself, I see no problem with this at all. It's really difficult to tell and he never answers when asked. I met him recently and he's really nice, though he jokes A LOT about other guys being gay, like once today this other guy said this picture of a foot looked like this other guy's foot, and my friend says he didn't know that because he "isn't as intimate with him as you are." He also on occassion poked straight jokes too, like "all the guys are trying to impress the new girl", or "you were checking your cousin out?? Jk!" to a girl.

He mentioned having to wear high heels once for a play, and a guy calls him queer, my friend's reply is a 'no.' Sometimes when he is called gay he also says stuff like, 'you wish.' He said (when someone was talking about it once) he saw a show featuring all fully naked male singers but it was really boring, he hated it, and made the "yuck" expression too.
