Abusive relationships have little to do with one person physically overpowering the other. It's very much about the mental/emotional.

I think she's beating around the bush trying to ask if she can be with a woman and still hold on to her man. That's the only thing I can think of since she keeps mentioning converting her partner, whatever that means. Is she trying to convert the gay female into sleeping with men so she won't be jealous of her keeping her man? Or is she trying to convert her man into not minding if she sleeps with another woman? The hell if I know what she's trying to ask.

Didn't you get overpowered by a small dog in someone's garden?

johnart said:

This I can understand. I'm much more sensitive than I let on, but I have a tendency to react with anger and hostility on the outside.


Humans fascinate me lately.

I was 6

you trying to convert someone and are scared of getting beaten up by their peers?

Can I ask you a few questions Myle?


1) are you completely out?

2) what's the hardest thing about being gay?

3) what's the hardest thing about being out (if this isn't the same as question 2).

4) Do you have a support network in school (friends, whatever) or in our own circle of friends? How many gay friends do you have?



The reason why I'm asking is that to be queer in my generation and where I grew up was unheard of. I still wrestle with that side of me. I still feel, sometimes, broken. I'm fascinating by kids today who wear the flag proudly.

if in general...well maybe...depends on the club.

Prince sells a special "Opus Brush" for that. (See johnart's avi.)

Imago said:

Are you SERIOUS? Domestic abuse is common in a lot of gay relationships, male and female. Most of my gay friends have either been abusers or victims of some physical abuse from partners at some point. Also, I have a lot of friends who are cops and they used to tell me that gay domestic disturbances are the worst kinda calls to go on and they had them all the time.

SCNDLS said:

Yeah, but I didn't know any of that till last year.

You see, my experience with the gay community outside of casual gay friends who I met at the club was close to nil. So in that void of knowlege I had all these misconceptions of gheydom. I seriously thought that domestic abuse would be difficult between gay men because they're more closely match physically. I never factored in psychological affects.

It was one of those wierd late-in-life epiphanies I had after someone revealed he had been abused in his last relationship. I know it's strange, but true.

In my long term relationship in the 90's it really got close to blows. Not the fun kind. We were together for 8 years and boy did we have our shouting matches. The thing was, our relationship WAS very passionate. When it was bad it was downright horrible but when it was good (heehee) it was mindblowing. It was a very exhausting relationship.

What....?
