How could you not think of that? The best designers of the world are gay men. Not to mention a VERY good friend of mine that does costumes for Disney, mainly at the Alladin show, as well as make-up.

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

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

Yeah, I went back and fixed my spelling.

Oopsy. (and I might have had kids if I could have done it that way too!)

OP- you will always encounter someone who doesn't understand or even "like" you because of your lifestyle. My sister is gay and I have watched her struggle through the pain that comes with being gay. It is not a choice. Some people just truly don't understand it. You have to be comfortable with you and love yourself, and then, I think you will find an inner peace that allows you to feel comfortable despite the veil of "judgement" that surrounds you. My sister is finally comfortable with being who she was born to be. It took a long time, and with age, you may find you simply don't care anymore what others think. I hope you will be able to get to that point. Own who you are, embrace it, and don't let the harshness of others harden you. Not a single one of us on this Earth is qualified to judge another. Go where you please and do as you please just like everyone else does. We all have the right to enjoy homesteading, keeping chickens, or dye our hair green if we so wish. Good luck and much love to you!

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.

But being Gay is based solely on sex, so you really can not discuss homsexuality with out talking about sex.​

I view it like eating pork at a bar mitzvah it is harmless just not kosher for the event.

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.

I don't get that. It hasn't been mentioned here.​

Lordy folks...this guy is asking a legitimate question...

I grew up in a small town. I suspect we always had gay residents, and we had plenty of un-married couples, but I still remember when the first black family moved to town. It was big news. For many LGBT folks, moving to a small town or rural area is exactly the same. They ain't never had none of that 'round there. The people get treated differently because they are DIFFERENT and NEW. In fact, in many small towns, it takes a generation or more for the new to wear off.

I don't really have any suggestions for the OP besides be yourself, don't deliberately isolate yourself, but don't also put yourself in situations that make you uncomfortable. I think once the new wears off, people are more likely to accept you for who you are rather than a "what you are" situation.
