Okay, yeah, so, like, I'm only a queer wannabe.

Yes, I'm growing my hair out. And yeah, I have some chin fuzz. And yes, I "date" multiple people. And yes, I have multiple piercings, including one through my dick.

But...

I don't do drugs. At all (never touched anything but caffeine and alcohol - once it got me accused of being "So straight(edge) it hurts.") I rarely go to clubs. I ran for and won public office. I meet regularly with the police to discuss the crime issues in my neighborhood. I bake. I'm vegan. I have cats. I work for the federal government, even under the Republicans. I'm so white and middle class it hurts.

Why do I bother? *roll eyes*

Plain and simple, nothing like it!

You, my dear moose, are fabuGASMIC!

Thank you. I recently asked a partnered friend of mine what he'd do if he woke up tomorrow single. (ie. where would he go to meet people now that he's quit smoking and toned down his drinking)

He said he'd probably start up again, at least for a while, 'cause "those are all habits that help you meet people." I thought he was full of it, but it's nice to get confirmation from someone else.

Honeybunny, someone's got to be the exception to the rule! Unique and special, you are. :) *smooch*

Also, on a random note, I can't believe I completely forgot to tell you about Lush (http://www.lushcanada.com). You should totally check them out.

Actually, sounds like you might be a

LESBIAN

I don't get it; I run in a circle of gay people (lesbians and gay men both). Most of them are tea-totalers, and none of them smoke. In fact, if I want to find someone to drink with, I either have to go out with someone straight (!), or go visit people in another city. And even then, I have trouble finding someone who drinks (I don't mind having trouble finding someone who smokes).

But I am lucky enough to live in a city where you can meet gay people with other hobbies than smoking and drinking. There are large and active gay dancing, hiking, running, and swimming clubs here, just to name a few.

If anything, these make me think you're non-hippy rather than somewhat-non-gay. ;o)

I was thinking about how I'm not really into the scene, m'self. My excuse now is that I'm married, and don't have to spend all my time drinking and being ignored by the hot guys in gay bars.

Of course, when I was single, I didn't spend that much time in bars, either: For erotic exercise and social interaction (ha!), I cut out the middleman (sorry, Captain Morgan) and went directly to the sex clubs.

Now, watching all the MTV spring break specials, full of straight kids drinking and dancing the night away, I figure that it's not the gay scene I'm missing, it's the young scene. I've bypassed my 20s and landed squarely in middle-age. No problem, I'll just wait till my mid-life crisis and then with all futility try to reclaim the MTV-Romantic ideal of youth, full of strobelights, screwdrivers, and beautiful, ethnically diverse dancers freaking in the middle of House music.

BAH! I say

Whatever - it doesn't make you not gay or a poser. *shrug* Just you. And Drugs do not make you gay... otherwise I'd be slipping them to people.

You are you and you rock. All these people I know say they aren't the typical gay - so what the fuck is the typical gay? Am I because I date guys, work out, have a nipple piercign, paint, sew, craft, help friends move, go dancing, do drugs, dislike my mother, hate my father, have no STRONG family ties, like underwear, have a decent job, go out to eat, play in fountains, go to dog parks with buds, play sports, drink, don't drink, don't smoke, play pool? What or what combination makes me gay? I say it's the part where I like the cock. But that's just me.

Oh and I agree with Ironman - you do sound like a lesbian. :-P

Yeah, the veganism got him most of the way there but the chin fuzz pushed him over the top.

Power to those of us who aren't into drugs or the club scene, that's what I say. Of course, I've also been single for, um, a while now, so there are times when I wonder what the heck I'm doing in general. :)
