LGBT DV is very real... and SO underreported...

True, I don't think all people who fit in that "hedonist" category are trendy, just that they're separating sex and pleasure from emotional attachment. They may only be attracted to men (or women) but they don't care who they bump uglies with. It's not exactly an official category, just one that seems to fit. Oh, and Cosmo UK just did an article about LUGs and also brought up the term heteroflexible.

There are a few topics for Drolefille's class. I agree that violence in lesbian relationships is very undereported.

(FYI, I'm Catholic, I'm marrying a Catholic in a Catholic ceremony. I am not bashing the church. I just think it's an underreported subtopic.)

Let us know how the class goes, Drolefille.

Thanks! We had a special presentation on Transgender/sexual issues Tuesday and I'm loving the class. I agree that there's an underreported issue of lesbian and gay activities and violence within the Church. How much, I'm not so sure. It's hard to tell. I'll look into it

Yeah, I really really wish I had more than an hour for my presentation as I have to cover so much (or at least I want to) and I hate presentations so that should tell you something

I just wanted to let people in the DC area know that the Capital Pride Parade is tonight!

susan was onto something with those questions, i don't know wth happened when i answered what i believed the test to be asking, but err...it gave me 50% kinsey 5

2, yes, ok, but i'm not into chicks like a level 5 would be :P some serious flaws with this test (or maybe it's because i suck at interpreting the questions)

I wouldn't say the test is particularly accurate. Kinsey didn't really use one if I recall correctly. He primarily used interviews.

BTW, if anyone has any more topics for my presentation, let me know. I have to present in a few weeks so I'm actually starting to focus on it now. I did get an interesting DVD from an advocacy group that I'd like to show for part of the class period.

Hey, where's all the Kinsey 3-6's?
