You're a girl in love with a girl, aren't you?

So Happy National Coming Out Day!

I know it's only in the US, but, right now, I'm making it official in Brazil. o/

I believe that christycorr managed to sum it up for me. So, do take a look at her post on the matter.

It's been... two years now since I first told my mother I was bisexual. I've changed a lot during this time, I've grown, I've acquired new friends, I've taken care of old ones... And yet my mother and my father have always and in every way respected me, especially on this matter. They've always backed me up, asked me about my girlfriends without budding in, taken care of me, given me good advice, been understanding, been, above all things, the best parents I could ask for.

Of course they're not perfect. But, they're very close from it.

Few people know what I have been going through, since I was thirteen, when it comes to other people's parents. Fewer people know what my girlfriends and friends had to endure. I just hope that everyone will start to be more conscious and get out of the narrow-minded world they live in. The day will yet come when gay people will be able to kiss in public shamelessly, without reproachaable looks or getting kicked out of places for doing so, get married, form a family, and be accepted.

We - Brazil in particular - are still crawling when it comes to that. A lot of obstacles are yet to come, and they won't be easy. My parents are my greatest example that changing is possible. And I couldn't be more proud of them.

"- You a little jumpy today Stein?
- No.
- You got a hot date?
- No.
- Yeah. Who's the guy?
- There's no guy.
- Oh come on, you're a terrible, terrible liar.
- Trust me, there's no guy." - Josh and Jessica, Kissing Jessica Stein.

Ps: and long live Metrobius. o/

Comments

"'Erectus'?" "No, 'homo'."

[christycorr]

*sigh*

Yeah.

For some reason, I feel like getting a 'Metrobius is love' gay colourbar. *-*

I think I'll go read The Grass Crown, Suetonius or some other equally gay book now, to celebrate. \o/ Maybe Mists. Or The Bible.

"If Homo sapiens were really... -Homo- sapiens... Is that why they're extinct?"

Me too! *.* *will ask you to make on on supper Photoshop*

Hum. The Bible sounds pretty good. Go see Rome some porn!

*grins* You know I just put that one so you could reply with this, right? xP

[christycorr]

*will ask you to make on on supper Photoshop*

...?

*nods* Who do you take me for? *grins*

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

...

Sorry. That came out all wrong. I meant: I will ask you to make a colourbar on super-Photoshop. o/

Just making sure you knew I knew you knew.

[christycorr]

Oh. That makes more sense.

I probably won't do it, but nice try. o/

Ask our son. *grins*

Oh,I know what you know. ... Ugh. Ok. Too narcissistic.

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll try to find someone else. Maybe L can do it for me?

Oh! Good one. He may fall in love with Metrobius, though.

Esse icon é bem a sua cara mesmo xD

É, esse é um dos pontos que eu não tenho NA-DA pra reclamar dos meus pais. Ainda bem =)

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Mean girls na veia, cara! xD

Se eles se incomodassem com os seus amigos gays e drogados seria demais. xD

*grins* Happy Coming-Out Day, dearest! 'Tis always nice having a supportive family, methinks...*hugs*

A couple grammatical notes:

"Without budding in" should be, "without butting in." Odd phrase, I know, but that's how it is.

"But, they're very close from it," should be, "But they're very close to it." You're far from something and close to something else.

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Thank you! *grins* It is great indeed.

Oh, thanks a lot! I will correct it. W really need to make the grammar lessons come true.

[firstlightofeos.livejournal.com]

*nods*

Of course. Tomorrow evening good for you? Chris can't make it Friday...of course, we can always hold court without her. But I might have things to do then...

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow evening is fine. It's aholiday here. What time?

[christycorr]

*blinks* Runi, I can't make it Friday because I will be in São Paulo -- which means, basically, with her. o.o'

[dianaprallon.livejournal.com]

Happy coming out day :)
Your parents are great. And I miss your mom a lot.
And I guess I miss you too

[darkwater]

I swear, I go to bed and there is like 20 comments on Christy's post, and now I look and there is 100. You hijackers, you!

*grin*

Glad to see that you and Christy weren't killed in your sleep. Methinks that most countries are backward when it comes to same-sex relationships.

Also reading further down Christy's comments, I took her to mean gay... lesbian... fully homosexual, rather than a fellow bisexual so I apologise for assuming once again.

Let's start again.

My name is Jessica. I am 16 and I am bisexual [flitting towards 'pan' actually *shifty look*]. Nice to meet you.

*mwah*

[christycorr]

*laughs*

My name is Christy. I am seventeen, and I am bisexual [flitting towards 'fully homosexual', actually *shifty look*]. Nice to meet you.

*beams*

[darkwater]

And I thought you both were at least a few years older than me.

*shocked*

I really should just expect the unexpected shouldn't I?

Lol.

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Really? Why?

[darkwater]

To be honest, mostly because I thought Christy was at least 19 or so. I just always get this vibe that makes me think shes a lot older. And by association that made you a little older than me as well.

Maybe you lot just sound more mature. Most of the people I know my age can't even write or speak their language properly and also they sound so immature, so everyone who sounds intelligent makes me think they're older than me. When I first got to know nitwitinperil a couple of years ago, I thought she was about 3 or 4 years older than me to find out that she's a year younger than me.

Methinks I should abandon my thinking once and for all. XD!

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Oh, she looks lika an old maid older as well.

Well, most people I know my age can't write or even speak proper Portuguese as well -- let alone English. People do sound older when they don't use bad old webspeak. *grins*

[christycorr]

*blinks* ...like an old maid, wtf?

And... I don't really look old, unfortunately. Wish I did, though. xD

[sweetcherrytree.livejournal.com]

*agreed*. You are an old maid.

[christycorr]

*blinks* ...

[sweetcherrytree.livejournal.com]

*pokes eye*

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

See, Christy? *grins*

[sweetcherrytree.livejournal.com]

Bwahahahahahahaha. OLD PEOPLE.

*points and laughs*

*grins*

Hey, I'm Kelly.

I'm straight. For the most part. *thinks* Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

*shakes hand*

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Oh, I was once shocked as well. *pats* You'll get used to it.

Most countries are. Which is a pity, really. --'

Nah, it's fine. *points* Like Christy herself said on that comment, I'm also flitting towards "fully homosexual". I know I like girls more. I just like to have the option, you know?

My name is Luiza (you can call me Lu, though - everyone does). I am 16 and I am bisaxual. Nice to meet you, too. o/

[llorelei.livejournal.com]

Olá, Lu!

How you doin'? ;;)

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Hello!

I'm... confused. Who are you?

[llorelei.livejournal.com]

Hee!

Anna/Minako. Eu era do grupo Ordem da Fênix e nós participamos de um monte de eps juntas. Isso ajuda? :)

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

MINAKO! Meu Deus! Você está viva! \o/

Que saudades absurdas que eu tenho de você! Vou te adicionar, ok?

[llorelei.livejournal.com]

Eee! Lembrou! >:D<

Eu sabia que vc estava viva pq vc é famosa e vira e mexe vejo seu nome mencionado em algum lugar, mas não sabia que vc tinha um LJ. *adds also*

Bom te "ver", Lu! Espero que seus pais e sua irmã fofa estejam bem.

[nancy-downs.livejournal.com]

Claro que eu lembrei!

Como assim, eu sou famosa? Onde tem visto meu nome? Oo Eu também não sabia que você tinha um LJ! Como me achou?

Muito bom te ver também! As duas estão ótimas. Eu acabei de ter uma irmãzinha pequena por parte de pai agora.
