    I've been coming here for close to 2 and a half years - I was under a different username long ago. I never really checked out the gay forum all that much until last year. I come here because I'm gay and I find it to be a nice little community.

    except for the assholes [​IMG]

    I'm here because I'm a gay hippy, because I wanted to visit wtih new people and because I wanted to have a group of individuals just like this one to hang out with. You know, kinda like the online equivalent of a 60s Woodstock community. ;)

    I've been coming here off & on for about 2 years now. I usually come here to get out anything I need to about my bisexual side. Something I don't share anywhere else.

    It's a hippie Web site so overall it's easy going, and I'm pleased, though not too surprised, there are LGBT threads here.
    I came to this thread because my legs are still wobbly so to speak though I firmly accept myself as a bisexual. I'm looking for common support with sexual matters, to understand each other and ourselves.
    Also hoping to make some friends, online and hopefully in person, and hopefully with benefits.

    Also don't want it to be all about sexuality. I know I have sex on my mind 24/7 but there are so many other things I think about.

    I come on here because I love seeing people deal with their sexuality in a positive way. It's nice being able to tell people you are bi, or gay, or whatever. When I married my wife almost 20 years ago I was 99% straight. Today I pretty much consider myself gay and my wife is cool with it. I provide her with anal pleasure. Lesbian porn and massager does the rest for her. I love looking at beautiful women with nice asses and tiny tits. Pussy does nothing for me. A hot athletic dude with a nice ass and nice cock really does it for me. Transsexuals with tiny tits do it for me. Probably not completely gay as you can tell but to be honest I wish I didn't find women so attractive. They look good but I am just no longer interested in putting my cock (or anything else) in a pussy.

    My friend told me to come on this site because I like chatting and being online but Facebook is an overly opinionated circle jerk of hate right now. It's making me into a bad person, so I'm checking out other options. I'm in this particular forum because I tend to get along better with other queer people than the general public. Also it has polls and I like polls. I just want to be able to have fun again haha. I don't come online to get stressed out, that's what work is for.

    Hi and welcome fellow queer! Good call on Facebook. I can't think of a better phrase than 'opinionated circle jerk of hate" to describe what's happening there. We get the occasional troll here but overall it's a hippie site so it attracts people with good vibrations. ☺ Everyone's pretty cool and laid back here. That attitude is very helpful when discussing matters of sexuality. Who needs unnecessary hangups? So pull up a chair, be your LGBT self, and feel free to be as friendly as you'd like...especially with me lol! You're among friends here.

    Well, I can't blast the trolls too hard since I have a minor in trolling. Or philosophy. My humor kinda lends to trollery at times. But I keep it under control and most recognize my humor, you just gotta read your audience. If they're not going to get a good laugh, it's probably not worth the effort! But in all seriousness, thank you for the warm welcome. Excuse me while I drag over a beanbag chair and make myself a nest.

    I'm sure I speak for most if not all when I say I welcome gentle good hearted jabs and questions that make me think. Although such attention might sometimes be as uncomfortable as a pointed barb, it give the opportunity to grow in some way: understanding, closeness, etc.

    Makes sense to me. Empathy and tact are handy as hell. So related but slightly off topic: I do tarot readings. There's a lot of overlap with what you said across the board there. You really got to read your audience when presenting something they really aren't going to want to hear. I really appreciate the people who recognize I'm not malicious. It's just meant to open up self-awareness and self-dialogue when thinking about complex issues. To generate a conversation as they work out for themselves how to make sense of the world around them. As far as the internet goes though, I'm just here to enjoy the chaos of the best and worst of humanity all jammed onto this crazy thing that we built out of nothing. We're all here for different reasons, and it's just neat to people watch and have some fun meeting new people haha

    Lol there was a time I didn't want to hear I like guys. Nobody ever said that to me either way though. It's one of those things for me and only me to figure out.
    So you do tarot readings? I never pictured that a reading would have to be tailored to the user to any great extent. Now that I think of it I guess everyone has a different way of taking bad news. Some want it straight up. For others it's best to prepare them emotionally before they know.
    I have my reasons for traipsing around the Internet too of course. Part of it is to find myself, and others that support what I find. I like to be helpful so hopefully I put in at least as much as I take out. Wikipedia and similar research are another reason. I stay away from memes as trustworthy sources of information lol. Entertainment, primarily music. Buying stuff.

    I hope I'm not hijacking the thread, lmao. I do readings, I generally keep it among people I've interacted with and that I understand their goals to some extent. Perhaps I don't view it as some crystal tower event, that I know more about a person than they know of themselves. But I get them to ask specific questions, and I pull cards, and we sit down and discuss those cards. We talk about things that might overlap in their lives, and things they may want to work on. We talk about possible challenges to what they want to achieve. That is to say that the cards aren't necessarily as important as the person taking a moment to reflect upon what they want or their path in getting there. I have rules, I have morals I go by, and I'm not going to tell someone that what is drawn is written in stone. I believe every person is an actor on their world, and they can choose to pause and reflect or act. And I generally will sit down and discuss if they want to try and plot an action. If it seems irrational, I ask them to think about it. If it seems safe and sane, I ask them to ensure it's what they want and go for it. I suppose I view drawing cards as partly chance, and partly an invitation to think about the world around a person. Perhaps it's more a moment of self-reflection than anything else. I'm not there to tell anyone what to do, or say I know what's best for them. I am just there to throw out concepts from who knows what sources I derive them. Chance, divine source, don't care. My goal is to lay down what I have drawn, and have the questioner really put their power into thinking about what they want and coming up with ways to get there. It's safe to say that while many say they have found resolutions to issues, I have found I understand the person a little bit more each time, and I like that. Tarot grows my understanding of people and how they think, what matters to them, what things they seek to find. When bad news is foreshadowed, it tells me how they react, and what they will uphold come hell or high water. And in a friend, that sort of morality is handy to know. To me, it's less about the cards and mechanics and more an exploration of what it means to be human. It is exploring a soul. And if that sounds super hippie, rest assured, I am well aware of that. Unlike some, however, my intentions are not malicious. I mostly just want people to reflect on their lives, and their actions, and do what they think is right.

    For the most part I like to see what other guys like me are thinking or chatting about. Answers some of my questions about being married and very bisexual. It’s also fun to share a few pics with other guys in a PM. So fill free to send lol
