Oct. 22nd, 2002 07:46 pmAt lunch today I overheard someone say "Let's do something not gay today" which made me think. (They weren't talking to me)
Am I the only slasher who has crisis' about her sexuality? Most I've met are absolutely sure about being straight (and before anyone asks, I'm not sure about my sexuality, but I sure as hell ain't straight) Because these days I've been thinking that maybe I do spend to much time think about gay...ness? Things? (How to put that non-offensively?) Most fo the things I do are through that lens. My book buying? Lets see, last three books I bought? Am I blue? a collection of LGBT fiction. Empress of the World, a book about a girl who finds love at a summer camp-with another girl. Places I never meant to be, a book about censorship. Has gay fiction, because thats a pet peeve. And it annoys the Hell out of me when people call each other fag, queer or gay at school. Or when they use it to describe "Thats so gay" (Makes me want to ask what's so happy about it, because sexuality is not an adjective.)
This whole thing just bugs me.
And how come no one ever asks are you sure you're straight? Or "Are you sure your hetness isn't just a fase?" What the fuck is wrong with being like ME??
Feel free to ignore this post..
