Hey any Gay members?????

Pam's Little Farm :

I don't believe that this thread is about your actual sexual life, is it? I think that it is just a place where they talk and such. There are threads for certain groups of people, I believe, where they just talk... Not really on the subject. You know? I don't see why it's not family friendly if it doesn't go into actual sexual relationships.

Exactly. I believe there's an "expecting mothers" thread, but I HOPE they aren't going into too much detail on the actual birthing process.... LOL

Im also glad this thread opened back up. Im straight but have no problem discussing or just reading through issues that other people face. My best friend is gay, but she's still like my sister. Discriminating against someone for who they love is like racism. And i dont believe in either. Just ignore the nasty rude comments and lets get this thread started!

Debi, I didn't think of that!

Pam, said perfectly!!

I am sorry to see that so many non-Gay people felt the need to jump on this thread to express opinions about whether or not it was okay to be Gay and to talk about their experience. Straight people talk about their lives, partners, spouses and experiences all the time on Random Ramblings. Please be kind to each other, people. If you are really deeply offended, then perhaps talk to the mod squad, but please don't use this thread to tell Gay people that you don't approve of their lives. Thank you for listening.

I edited my post, but I think it got buried!

I'm bi, and trans, and looking forward to starting a family and doing some homesteading. We're out here, and will be here even if this thread gets shut down because someone decides there's something 'wrong' with us, don't worry.

And to answer the actual question...yeah, I do often feel out of place at more 'rural' events. I've had several people assume that it's okay to gay-bash around me or make jokes about transgender people because at first glance I guess I look like any other white guy. And depending on the environment, it's not always safe to speak up.

As a result, I've just started avoiding a lot of those events. I rarely go watch local horse events, which bums me out because it's something I really enjoy.

may I ask where you live? There are a lot of LGBT who are home stedding now a days. There is a sense of freedom in being independent, and A huge number of the LGBT people I know, have livestock including chickens. They just tend to keep quiet for fear of being judged since some rural communities can be less open about such things than cities.

This is my favorite post on here LauraJean. Had I known I could just expectorate one, maybe I woulda had a child, who knows.
