Starky's Rants

^Ideally, how LGBT community should be

You are right about having people turn on you. At work two Christian women were going off about how disgusting dykes and gays are to a group who were listening and not arguing with them. i was in their department to do some work. i lost it and told them that they had a dyke in their midst. they literally looked around and asked who. i told them ME. needless to say it is awful quiet when i go back to that part of their office anymore.

I had to laugh at the "you just need a cock (i.e. me) to make you straight. i tell them my wife's dick is longer, thicker than theirs. it never gets soft and won't make me pregnant and best of all ... she can actually use it to give me an orgasm. that shuts most of them down but some keep on coming on. Then i just rank them down. Almost been punched a few times when the poor babies get ripped a new one. Gods they make me hate men.

love the graphic.

I hate to get political, but gotta side-eye mostly ignorant cis men who think they're entitled to women's bodies, no matter what your sexuality is Can't imagine how many mouth breathers propositioned me just because I'm Asian and 'unattainable' so to speak, as long as it's someone they can 'bed', it sadly doesn't matter who you are and what your preference(s) is. That's just how our society is built, even if we are mindful of being open to other people's plight, and even if it's hatred we unfortunately aim towards ourselves, it's still something inherent which takes years to unlearn.

Just my opinion, but I think the LGBT community is too worried about wlw relationships turning heteronormative, most prominently shown years ago when people still thought they can tell you what to wear and how to act. Have you ever seen that movie 'If These Walls Could Talk 2'? There's a segment in there which resonated in me after I watched it, way back when I was still trying to figure stuff out, and heyy it's about a butch lesbian! I recommend it, in fact I think that segment's in youtube~

But yeah, it's is a ridiculous and old way of looking at it, but sadly, it's still a problem in our community :I Other people already press down on us and hurt us, and I'm in the camp who believe we can't afford to have any in-fighting in our community as well.

All the best though, starky! I do hope we all eventually find a place that accepts us for who we are, even if it seems impossible; sometimes all it takes is a small group of loving people who stay with you regardless.

Guys, this is a really interesting perspective. Thanks for being open to sharing! This is lots to learn.

Well, fuck work up the ass with a rusty rod and no lube for making me miss out on all of these great responses today!


oooohh... Dayz knows how to BURN!!


This is a very valid point. Men are born into a sense of entitlement, and it carries over into sexual ego as much as anything else.


I think I would be a total homo fail if I didn't own a very well-worn copy of that DVD. And yes, dat 1972 segment is the best part of the whole thing


Soft butch is still part of our dark side spectrum. We're inclusive

One time, upon being dared, I put on a woman's cut shirt. It was light blue, and had that sort of v-neck collar.
My friends laughed so hard one of them peed herself (she denies it and says she spilled her drink, but we all knew better), and was told I looked like a bad crossdresser XD

The irony!


Oh God. Horrible flashbacks. Getting smacked with a purse one time in my youth was enough to teach me to never, ever, EVER use public facilities unless it is a literal emergency.
Thankfully I have not had one of those emergencies.


Munky is so PC XD I am grateful we have her. She can be our Community Liaison because damn, I don't even know what half of those denominations are...
Also, you get a free pass on the flannel and plaid exactly for this:
I'm going to blame the US Pacific coast for being grunge influenced by Nirvana, and also say that my Soft Butch ID is personified into fuzzy flannel
But if you are using a chain wallet.. I must quietly step away and leave you to your fate




I am guessing they need to enter Witness Protection after this.
And I'm only half-kidding.



And YES! -standing ovation-

And thank you for actually putting up useful articles for research. I need to consider including things like that in future rants... XD but I get caught up in the angry moments...

Cass and DD, thank you for putting up with this rant and for being so supportive as well. Really, this crazy little group is awesome!
(and if either of you want me to write a Starky Rant for something that bothers you sometime, let me know. I take Rage!Requests)

So true! In fact I was actually shocked when I found out later she wasn't really 'one of us' because she'd taken on those roles.
Recently saw her in the Netflix series 'Bloodline'. It helped to wash out the bad taste that 'Big Love' left in my mouth...


..there are varying.. colors... to define romance in the Asexual community?
I..
feel the exact same way I did when I was introduced into Algebra. Don't mix Letters Into my Math!
Don't mix colors into Sexytime Orientation! ;_;

Grey Ace - why is that term reminding me of Starcraft??


No, no, just the fact it was left in the 90s was enough for me to brethe a sigh of relief XD
..but you did good on your skee ball ticket cash-in. I think the best thing I ever got was a keychain... that was broken.


And if Munky talks first - So Much Less Fighting! XD
It works!
