Being gay, actually, still is not widely accepted in my school. We've got a lot of real pricks here that would probably try and make our lives suck as much as possible, so we try not to show it too much. Most of my friends know I'm gay tho. But that's it. It's still not easy.

I always assumed that it was this way in most CT towns, until I read about a boy from Shelton, CT who was voted Prom Princess for this year. I was quite happy when I heard that.
Wow! Congrats on the new boyfriend. And major props to you for coming out at such a young age! Just so you know, half of the jocks in highschool will end up gay in college! TRUST ME...

LIKE....gay republicans!

Well...eh! I disagree a bit...I understand what you are saying but still gay people are different are they? If not, then straight people must be different? Somebody HAS to be different! lol....

Though I may share several things with many people, we are all different from each other - that is the point of being an individual. No one is exactly like me. Thus, your statement that somebody has to be different is illogical because no one is the same as another - thus we are all different. Moreover, to point to sexuality as this all defining difference is silly when so many other differences between people are there as well.

Oh that is very true and I agree with you!

But speaking JUST IN TERMS of sexuality...there is a difference, which is what makes gays gay and straights straight.

It will be a funny experience. You will start hearing through the grape vine..."did you know that so and so is gay now..." and you can't help but laugh at the bastard who was such the homophobic bastard in HS!

God is good!


And yes you are in my sig! I totally loved what you said! And of course in the fights I am the drunken bitch all by myself! LOL....that's cool!

I have that Ann Coulter-esq bitch quality to me...

Meaning...Cute, smart, funny, great dresser (especially in the shoes department)...BUT to those I don't like I am a blood thirsty banshee who is out for the kill....
