Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender - May 2007

I have applied for a job, and I'm scheduled for an interview later today. They have had me sign twice to consent to a drug test. They want me to come back today, so that a male manager will be there, I'm guessing to "observe" the urine test (meaning he will probably be watching) Now..I have no qualms with taking the test, the problem I have is, if I'm "supervised" during it, that means that I have to out myself to a potential employer, something that I'm not really wanting to do, because I am female-to-male transsexual. I would like to go into the job just being known as male. Plus, if a manager or whoever "observes" that also runs me the risk of that person running their mouth, and before I know it, I'm outed to the entire job and all my co-workers.
If I refuse to take the drug test though, I'm automatically denied employment. What should I do? What's the best way to handle this situation without looking guilty or that I'm trying to hide something

...them mentioning that she's a lesbian? To be fair, gay people probably do it too, but the woman is famous for other things!!

It's like trying to mention a trip to Loch Ness without someone saying "Did you see the monster?"

Btw: people who haven't heard of Sandi Toksvig: don't bother telling me. Just don't answer the question! Thanks.

I know this isn't exactly a "gay question" but I post every other question in here, so why should i go start talking to the straight people now?? Anyway, do people ever just irk you to the point of no return? How do u get over it and just continue with life without telling them off?

I'm in a situation where a few so-called friends of mine have pissed me off and the friendship has been severed. I would love to just move on and live life BUT one of them wont leave me the hell alone. (random irritating text messages and emails) I'm trying my hardest to be calm & mature but im 2 minutes away from ripping her a new one. Any suggestions on how to politely tell her that she blew it and to never allow her fingers to dial my number again?

I've been in a lesbian relationship for 5 1/2 years, I have 2 children 14 and 8. Recently my daughter (the 8 yr old) moved to a new school and the bigger kids have started to make fun of her "moms". This never happened at her old school.She was only 3 when I met my gf so she doesn't really know any different. What do I say to her about this? I don't want her to get the idea that being gay is wrong.

I have a phobia of men and also I do find certain women attractive. When I get hugged by another woman I really like it.
Or if they touch me I feel.......... I can't describe it, it's just a good feeling. When I say touched I don't mean sexually by the way.
nice answers only please, I'm really confussed about all this and it does frighten me.
Thanks

this is me.
i am 100% gay. i dont act it though.
well i like to think that :P
BUT
i'm only attracted to straight guys.
im not attracted to gay guys unless they act quite straight in the first place.
so is that normal for a homosexual person?
its more than a fantasy, or desire.
its only what im attracted to.
please tell me this is not wierd
and what not.

Apparently, a lot of people think that homosexuality is a sin and unnatural. Who knew? I'm glad that they enlighten people as to that point of view because people are only gay until they're hated on by some troll.

QUESTIONER: "What's the name of that one gay character in that one movie?"

ANSWERER: "You're sick and going to hell."

QUESTIONER: "Gee, I never realized! I'm cured of my sinful sickness! I'm glad that somebody finally informed me!"

ANSWERER: "You're so very welcome, you freak. I'm so glad that I'm not overcompensating for my own homosexuality."

It's not like these are original sentiments. Who do these people think that they're enlightening?

I really dread approaching other guys. Most gay guys dread approaching other guys actually. We always wonder in our head whether he is or isn't gay, ahhh!

I've been single my entire life now and I'm really tired of it.

How do you guys do it? How do you have to courage to approach other guys? Help me!

My school issued a survey yesterday asking us what kind of new school clubs we would like to see next year and in years to come. About 9 of us(including myself) wrote down a GSA on the form.

Four of us belong to the LGBT community, again including myself, but nobody knows that about me except for one person. We would like to be able for the LGBT teens, and also straight ones, to meet and discuss issues relating to this. We think it will ease the hardships. Plus, I personally think it will make it a whole lot easier for me to come out.

However, I really think the administration will not allow something like this. Homosexuality is very unaccepted in our student body, and I think there would be some "disturbances".

What do you think we should do here?

I don't want to get made fun of. I want to fall in love with a girl. I want to hold her in my arms. I want to make her laugh. I want to hold her hand and kiss her public. I want to stop her from crying. I want to be a man.

I dont want to be gay. I hate it. I hate myself.

No ones ever fallen in love with me. Except a girl. And I shoved her away. I want her back. I want to be loved.

I will make this short and sweet, I am sure alot of people that read this will judge me and think that I am a horrible person. It's your opinion and you're entitled to it!! I am bi-sexual but prefer men, about ten months ago I got this very religious girl pregnant and we got married. Now the beautiful baby is here and as much as I had hoped, she didn't change who I truely feel and KNOW I am, a woman!!! I love my wife but she isn't cutting it for me, I need to express who I really am and that isn't possible with her. We have dicussed this to a point, but she always makes me feel like a huge weirdo and the conversation is cut short. She always throws in that if I wanna be a part of my babies life I better stay a straight male. Yuck. I want to be a parent for my little girl, but I also want to be happy with who I am. Is there a way to divorce with out this being the issue, or a way to let her know I am not a huge weirdo and I am really a loving person. Help me please!!!

Alright, I'm very confused, very curious, and very, very upset. I don't be different, but somthing deep in my body tells me I'm probably gay... I don't want to accept this fact, I dont want to face it. I am wondering if maybe, maybe its a phase? I don't know. I have looked at gay porn before, actually a lot almost daily. I masturbate almost every day ( I am very ashamed of myself because of this...) On a gay quiz i scored a 38%. I wouldn't mind kissing a boy, actually it turns me on. I dont know anymore... I have had thoughts of suicide. I just do not want to be different, and bullied and stuff like that... I... wish I was hotter than I was, I wish i was muscular, and had a nice big penis. I enjoy looking at peníses too... I love jerking off, though I feel wrong when doing it. I love muscles and stuff like that. But i REALLY want to be straight... I dont know anymore... I'm only just turned 13 years old... I dont know what to do anymore... Please, Help..

It seems like everything in the gay community is made into a political issue now. People want rights just for the sake of rights, even if they don't really care what those rights mean.

I don't believe in gay marriage or marriage full stop. Most people get divorced nowadays and most people are too selfish to make a marriage work. I can understand wanting the legal rights associated with a civil partnership but nor marriage. I've voiced this view to some gay friends and they couldn't understand my view. Just because we are gay, we don't all have the same views and I resent the zealots in the gay community who expect us to. The same happened with feminism; at its core the ideas were good, but some pushed too far and now most women want to disassociate themselves with the term.

Just to make it clear, marriage doesn't really affect anyone else, so I'm not against gay marriage, as people can do what they like. It just isn't for me. However, adoption is different. It is hard enough to grow
