Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Yeah, because, shockingly, even though being assigned the wrong gender at birth is bad for trans people (or anyone!), their parents aren't doing it out of spite! It's not like a baby is born with a penis and the doctor sweeps into the room and says "Good news, evil parents! I, evil doctor, have determined that this child is, in fact, a girl. But luckily, she has a penis! So we can raise her as a boy to traumatise her! I mean ... him!" and then they all laugh evilly. So it's a big deal, for a trans person, that they grew up being treated as the wrong gender, but it's an innocent thing. Yes, we should be raising children in a gender diverse way, and allowing them to explore their own gender identity and expression. But we can't know in advance of them telling us who they are, so people pick one. See the s**t those parents put up with to raise a kid gender neutral? That's really hard to do in our society. So yes. It means something. It's important. It's part of why it's so hard to be trans. But it's not an evil conspiracy. No one needs to be blamed for it, but it does need to be talked about, if that's what someone needs.
Actually, it's called "Trinity LGBT" because the college is Trinity College. But triangles are a symbol for gay people, aren't they? But I think the triangle in this case is just a coincidence. It's hard to avoid simple shapes in a logo!

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
I approve.
Leather gloves with steel powder in the knuckles. They could probably bruise Superman.
I probably shouldn't find a YouTube link, or I'll be talking about hand-to-hand weapons all day...

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Unfortunately I'm at school in one of two states that bans sap gloves. And if I order them to my home address I have to make sure my mother doesn't find out because she says I can't have them in her house. Even though it's her father's house and I'm going to be eighteen next month.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Well then no. No one has ever said anything particularly rude to my face (not on purpose anyways), nor have I ever experienced any violence because of such things. The worst thing that ever happened to me, was when some kid I didn't even know called me a ****** over Facebook.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
...I did it. By applying the strawberries-and-cream-scented shampoo twice and mixing it with my conditioner, my hair is now smoother than I knew hair could be and it smells faintly of strawberries! And it's not even dry yet! Maniacal laughter!!!
Now I just need to get off my lazy butt and shave... :/

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Yeah they are convenient but it's such a bad shave. Now using a straight razor that is a real way to shave, bit of a hazzle but so smooth.
Yeah same but turn 2 days into 23 days. Stupid prostate cancer making me raise money and awareness for it by growing a mustache for a month. I do not look good with a mustache.Last edited by pffh; 2012-03-22 at 07:11 PM.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
You mean a cutthroat, or one of those multi-blade safety razors?
I might as well not be able to use safety razors - the shaving cream makes it impossible to tell whether I shaved enough, using it without cream usually irritates my skin (especially if I wet the lubricating strip - for some reason that makes it worse), and no matter what my hair's so thick it takes several passes (and about an hour)to work. And the razor gets clogged. Badly enough to necessitate using more than one every time.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
I envy you. If I use a normal razor (you know gillete and what not) I need to shave twice a day if I'm going to be out and about during the evening. Stupid beard growth gives me a 5 O'clock shadow around noon.
I mean a real knife which according to google is yes also called a cut-throat.Last edited by pffh; 2012-03-22 at 07:21 PM.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
I used to recreationally fence sabre. A fencing sabre would be perfectly legal, a good weapon and would look very sexy(if you wear the right clothes). And if none of them wear heavy clothing and you know what you're doing, things can go down very much in your favor. But if you got a permit, then self defense would be in order, but then you get into all the "Necessary Force" confusing fecal matter.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Meh, I don't even quite have a full beard yet, the bits in the front around my mouth haven't grown in yet. But yeah, it doesn't grow that fast. Back when I used to use a manual razor and actually kept clean-shaven, I could go two or three days between shaves, but then, I was like, fifteen at the time. It comes in a bit faster now.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
I have a friend who's Persian and has had a full beard since he was twelve or so.
And he managed to accidentally light it on fire once.
*Phone rings*
Me: Yo, 'sup?
Friend: Hey, I just lit my beard on fire.
Me: What!? How?
Friend: You know how you can take a lighter and cup your hand and collect the butane in your hand and then light that on fire and have fire in your hand?
Me: Yeah.
Friend: Well I just tried that with my chin.Jude P.

German/Russian Jewish. So white? And I can't quite grow a full beard so that's out of the question. Bluh I don't like shaving.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
I actually have to shave my entire body (even the tops of my toes) every day or two to keep myself from itching too much... It's worth it when I'm done, though.
... Hooboy, I must cost a fortune in utilities.
... I don't know if I should laugh it, disapprove of or deeply respect that.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
On shaving:
I'm sixteen half Colombian half American white boy, and my White shows more. I shave two to three times a week. I don't exactly like it when I go to school or something with stubble, but if I do go somewhere important, I will shave because otherwise I'll look weird and a beard clashes so much with my hairstyle. But there is this really cute 5ish guy who's like 6'2" (I'm 5'4"/5'5") that wears a full beard rather well. But I find shaving to mostly be tedious and simply don't do it because I shave before a shower, and I'm usually rushing into the shower because no matter what my mind seems to wander somewhere and I end up taking 20 minute showers in the morning. But if I get everything nice and clean shaven, I like to feel my face because it's fun and feels nice, though because I just shaved, all the microscopic cuts are bleeding, so my face is all tuggy and it feels cool. Some people have the softest faces ever!

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
And now for something completely different.
(Hey I'm tired, and I'm tense, and twitchy for no apparent reason. So nonsequitirs happen.)
Is there any LGBTA+ music? Like, a song that's about two women instead of a man and a woman, or involving a transgendered person?Jude P.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
Lady Gaga hasn't done anything obviously along those lines yet?
There was a rather notorious Katy Perry song floating around for awhile, though I'd heard conflicting opinions as to whether it set LGBT individuals back a decade or was a sign of times having actually progressed.
I know that most of Elton Johns' love songs take on an entirely new context when you realize he's really talking about another man, but I don't know enough Elton John stuff to remember anything in particular.
It's almost guaranteed that songs exist. The real question is whether there's actual dedicated sub-genres.

Re: LGBTAitP - Part 22: The Best There Is
"I Kissed a Girl"? (Or whatever it's called.) I don't like Katy Perry, though. I'm very particular when it comes to female singing voices, and hers is particularly unpleasant to me. And I just don't really like her music and lyrics.
Anyway, this happened because a song on my iPod said something about a man and a woman and I was like but what about gays?Jude P.
