The perks of being gay

[sprhrgrl]

Hey, I did a basic overview of the Day of Silence in the second post on this page of the GLBT Issues Thread. It's open to anybodyanybody who wants to participate.



It's a good thing.

Anybody feel free to slap me around if this comment makes no sense....since I am exhausted and at the moment my computer doesnt want to move any farther back in this thread...but I participated in the day of silence last year with quite a few friends. It was a good experience....

My last two girlfriends were both bisexual, and when the three of us would sit down over drinks, they both said the best thing about being bisexual was kissing women. That kissing women was SO much softer and nicer than kissing men.

No "Battle of the Sexes"



Although, in fairness to my preferences, I feel the need to quote the estimable (if Old Perv) Woody Allen:



Bisexuality . . . doubles your chance for a date, and



Masturbation . . . is sex w/ someone you love!



GG Then there's the wit and wisdom of Matt Groening (pre-Simpsons): of both gay *and* straight, there comes the oh-so-frequently-true description "Looks Ridiculous!"* Out

Finding my gf

Yeah Eliza Dushku is totally hot

What there are perks to being gay......I'm still waiting to find them.

Bored-Now

[3peanuts]

My two cents: one of the funniest perks of being gay is the huge amount of "First Time" anniversaries:



1) First time I kissed a girl

2) First time I kissed a man (urgh)

3) First time I had sex

4) First time I made love

5) First time we watched Buffy/Children's hour/Go fish together

6) First time she met my gay male friends

7) First time at a Women Only bar

8) First time I cut my hair

9) First Pride Parade



and my favourite ('cause it's the most recent)



First time make up and girlie dresses



I love the look in her eyes when I'm all "lipstick and see-thru' clothes", she looks like a panther ready to jump all over me...

"Cunning linguist" GG

Keynes was right

[Shadow]

Since you all pretty much covered it I have only one thing to say...



If I were straight I probably wouldn't be here right now and meet all this nice and talented



Of course I apologize to all straight who are part of this board.

I know someone already mentioned it but ANGELINA JOLIE! And speaking of which, I just got word that she finally fessed up to Barbara Walters saying she's bi. Can anyone confirm? If that's the case then WOOHOOO!!! Tomb Raider 2 come this weekend will hold some extra special meaning...LMAO

I don't know if it's been said, but a perk to being a lesbian would be the movie Bound

[tkheaven]

oh yes..that is definitely a perk!

[Gatito Grande]

Well, I'm sure plenty a straight boy has gotten off on the movie Bound. I would say that the "gay perk" is re-enacting it!



GG Um, absent the murder and mayhem parts, of course. Out

[Ittybittykitty]

I have to say gaydar is one of the funnier ones, but my favorite perk is Dyke-wear. Last night my friend (who is a lesbian) and I went out to see a movie and we wore a black tank tops and jeans. Both of us. She's all "It's the thing lesbians wear this summer." I didn't know.

[Kiwigrrrl]

This is a cool thread!



My favourite thing of all time is Checking Out Girls Butts. They are the most perfect creation of all time, and I regularly get caught out mid-peek.

It's gotten so bad that my friends (boys and girls) point out any nice bootie that is walking past. God, I'm a dirty pervert.



I also have to agree with the kitten who previously mentioned the oogling of Amber's goodies. Goodies is the funniest word.

Ok, not gay (yet, anyway), but frankly I think this would be a wonderful perk for those both gay and out.



You can comment on a strictly aesthetic basis on the looks of a guy without loud squeels of 'Oooh! Do you like him? Do you like him?'



That just annoys the crap out of me...

It is my solace, my home, the place where my walls crumble and fall away, because no one can know who I truly am. Thank goodness for the Internet, preserver of sanity! -Unknown

[Mrs Vertigo]

Or – MellindraX, if I may – you could always pop a random "Oh, check out that gorgeous chunk of hot man-muffin!" and laugh your ass off over the looks that earns you from friends (the above mentioned d'ya-like-'im choir) – who are just so cool with you being a lesbian that seeing you ogle a man actually scares the bejeezeus out of them.

I love my long lost Jewish little-potato twin. In a prison way.

[ms aragorn]

A perk? I think it would have to be being able to check out a woman's body. I'm bi, but I find that woman, most of the time, have much more sexual bodies.



Also being able to be sexy for a woman. I feel much more comfortable and ajusted to them. And of course you always know what you like, and they may like similar things.

[MellindraX]

Vertigo, I've actually been in a situation very similar to that, and you're right.

The expressions are priceless!

Funny you should mention that. I had a straight male friend of mine tell me that he wished he were a lesbian after seeing Bound.

I loves me AMber!

[Tempest Duer]

at all the posts already here.



I don't really have anything to add here... just, uh... girls? Big perk. Really big perk.

I believe in the madness called "now."

[Twisted Minstrel]

May I be a witness to Tempest's vote for girls? Girls girls girls. Girls girls and more girls. I wish the world was made of them.



Another perk for me is watching the next generation be able to come out in a more open and loving environment.



Peace!

I think we have enough votes between the two of us, Minstrel. But you reminded me of another perk... being part of the next generation.

Hmm... perks to being gay...



Well, Id have to say that my favorite per--
