Monday Morning Musings

[valarltd]

Somehow 3/4 of a mile when you're actually going somewhere feels a lot shorter than 1/2 a mile on a treadmill. My natural pace is 3 mph. No wonder 3.5 makes me breathe hard and 4 makes me feel like I'm dying.

It wasn't a bad morning for walking, a little hot on the return trip from school.

We watched Shindig. Mudd has really taken to Firefly, in a way he didn't last time around.

And, we finally have proof positive what causes lesbianism: The Boston Women's Health Collective.
Every girl in my daughter's gay youth group was given a copy of Our Bodies, Ourselves around the age of 11. They all decided, since it is the only common element in their upbringings, that it carries Teh Dykeness impregnated in its pages, and springs it on unsuspecting purchasers.

Gee, I bought that when I was fairly young, and read it - checked out from the library - even younger. I'm not a lesbian...

Or could it be that I just don't know it?

Your daughter is gay? How the shit did I miss this fact? **blushes furiously**

You haven't been around for a while. She was outed in April. We spent the summer doing Gay Rights activism and protests. And my husband is coming around on it.

I am soooo sorry I haven't been around. Lots of stuff here. And thank GOD your daughter has YOU as her mother! I will try and be around more and if there is anything I can do for you! I am just so happy your daughter has you and thank goodness you husband is coming round. How old is your daughter?

She just turned 13 right after she came out.

She's doing pretty well with it. She's taking some grief, but she has the biggest baddest mama around willing to stand up for her. She marched in the Pride parade over the summer.

You've been dealing with a lot of your own stuff. Sometimes one just needs a break. We're doing ok.
Mudd's going to PFLAG meetings. I think I'm as proud of him as I am of her.

I'd be proud of him too... Bi the way, how does he feel about your bisexuality?

[valarltd.livejournal.com]

He can mostly ignore it. I'm not chasing other men, I'm not chasing other women.

It just embarasses him when i ogle cocktail waitresses.

[kc-risenphoenix.livejournal.com]

LOL... And I think of all the straight men I know who'd give a testicle to watch their wives ogle a cocktail waitress!

our progenitor who is strongly opposed to early sexual education (hey I was 8, I asked what premature ejaculation was and the man had a cow) would probably agree with the "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Theory.

But his opinion was violent movies were better than movies with sexual overtones for growing children. So grain of salt. Grain of salt.
