futilethewinds replied to Dustin's discussion 'Are those that eat meat and are aware of the arguments for vegetarianism bad people?'"I personally rarely see people as good or bad (or evil), just their actions. The action of eating meat, especially with full knowledge of why one should not, is wrong."

Kellie Tipton commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"I can understand your feelings of isolation in some ways, seeing as I'm from Birmingham as well. Atheists and skeptics can be hard to come by. But they are certainly there. Same with gays and lesbians. The majority of my closest friends are…"
Pope OoO (Out of Order) commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"I should add that I met my spouse through a friend, as many people do. Doing more things with more people raises the probability of productive connections--all kinds of connections. (I.e. it helps to get out more, but err towards being picky!…"
Pope OoO (Out of Order) commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"Kids will change your life, too. Fatherhood made me "grow up" a lot faster, because of both the new responsibilities and the new social interactions that were required. Fortunately (I'm pretty sure), living in a liberal environment…"
Melvinotis commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"You are right, When I started doing the real math though, which included those that might like me and I might like them, it was still slim pickings.

It's worth a shot. It obviously cannot cure all of your relationship woes, but there are places in the United States and further abroad where the vast majority would not bat an eye at either your atheism or…"
Melvinotis commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"Some math I did when I was single made me realize I had to change how I looked at finding a suitable mate:
7,000,000 people on the planet (give or take)
3,500,000 women
700,000 of an age range I was looking for
140,000 not overly religious (about…"
Lance Angus Miles commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"what shes pointing out is that at least in her general area (the suburbs in which she lives or goes to pubs, clubs, bars to meet people) the lesbians there just have an easier time finding someone to have a relationship with or at least a temporary…"
Unseen commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"Even when I meet other lesbians, 99% of them are already with someone else, and if they break up with that person, they're with someone else in a few weeks' time.

Lance Angus Miles commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"whats even more funny is that America is supposed to be a secular country, in their constitution it states quite clearly in the first amendment that the government will remain seperate from any religion.

Lance Angus Miles commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"well Nina, first im very glad i could help. you'll notice that the vast majority of those who are non-religious are far more accepting of people who are of different races, cultures, nationalities and sexual preferences, this is because we dont…"
Nina van der Roos commented on futilethewinds's blog post 'Me = Forever Alone'"Lance reading your post makes me realise just how easy it is to be lesbian here, I need to be a lot more grateful for that.

Me = Forever Alone
Posted on April 27, 2013 at 5:45pm 22 Comments 0 Likes
If you're heterosexual, you can't begin to appreciate how difficult it is being gay in a mostly straight world. You're surrounded by potential mates, and can afford to be choosy. I don't have that privilege. Even when I meet other lesbians, 99% of them are already with someone else, and if they break up with that person, they're with someone else in a few weeks' time. Meanwhile, I have been single for three years. I guess I could be more outgoing and more involved, but as an introvert, I…

Okay get this:
I'm a woman.
I'm an atheist.
I'm gay.
I have attended pro-choice protests.
I live in Alabama.
Yet I have not yet been beat up. Why is this? I'm living loud and proud, and I know there are haters out there, but nobody acts against me when I'm on my own. (When I'm out in public with a girlfriend, it's another story. People get hostile then.)
Oh wait, I forgot, I'm trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and could take on pretty much…

There's a "What Women Want" and a "What Men Want" thread, but I don't think what I want quite belongs in either category because they are heteronormative threads. "What Women Want" is really "What Women Want from Men" and I'm a lesbian. "What Men Want" (From Women) is for men, and I'm a woman. So here goes my own thing.
I want a woman who is understanding and kind, not just to me, but to people in general. I want somebody who knows who she is and has her life together, not a big mess…
Continue The Homosexuality Debate
Posted on March 2, 2013 at 10:00pm 38 Comments 1 Like
Pro-gay: There is nothing wrong with homosexuality.
Anti-gay: AIDS!
Pro-gay: AIDS is also caused by dirty needles and heterosexual sex.
Anti-gay: Gay people are more promiscuous, so they make AIDS a bigger problem.
Pro-gay: AIDS is spread mostly by straight people.
Anti-gay: Gay sex is inherently more risky than heterosexual sex.
Pro-gay: You're a bigot.
Anti-gay: You're immoral/damned.
I'm tired of seeing the same debate a thousand…
