Western thinking is all about boxing things, trying to explain causes and reasons and forgetting the big picture. Eastern thinking sees everything more as a whole and connected all visible and unvisible. To be an individual thinker and doer and still respect other peoples choices? I want to see myself as a part of the living, breathing thing called Earth with it's all habitants, it doesn't mean I have to agree with everyone else (I don't) and I don't expect them to agree with me (they don't). What I'm sayng is, I think humaity has room for all kinds of opinnions. Even if not as fast as in one generation to see, changes do happen in thinking and politics and values. What is minority today, might be hugely popular or even worshipped in 200 years. Think about it... women might rule the world, men dress in skirts, heterosexuality is not necessary and gay relationships are open and accepted. The aliens live amongs us, saving our planet. Ouuuuuch... sorrrryyyyy.... Just twisted my brain trying to think outside the box. :lol:

Lol, Lils, you are not alone!

Neph: you are so right. I'll keep on enjoyin the light hearted works of others and let my stories come out as they do. Maybe one day I'll pour out some silly, funny piece of story that has nothing serious in it. (Not holding my breath)

I think I'm having an identity crisis... From scorpio to virgo... LOOOOLLLLL

So, now I'm virgo, lol.

Queen: Show Must Go On.

Welcome to GA Jamie! Don't stay a stranger!

Link! Link! I'm scared of zombies and everything too gore, but I'll give it a go if you see something special in it

I'm interested to hear more about this Autophobia! If you place it between two Dom's stories, it must be really good!

Wow, that's a lot of dates!?!?! WOW Can I be nosy and ask when did this dating marathon happen? Like in recent years or decade ago or? You sure are a dating survivor! Did you meat your partner at one of these dates? And off topic, lights just went out, I'm in the dark without any candles with my laptop and cell as my only lightsources... lol

I'm a grazy emotional person (try melodramatic), who bottles up her feelings all day long and when I get to imagine, read, write or sketch my story (I do all of those) I cry like a baby. My eyes are sometimes watery all the time with my own stories and I'm thinking what is the matter with me when I can't write something happy and light. Since I spend a lot of my time working on my stories, if not writing, then doing something around them, I'm affraid I'm filling some kind of emotional void in my life... I love reading stories that make me smile and laugh, but even if my stories have a happy ending, they are always quite dark. No matter how I push myself to lighten the story it doesn't work.

The language in Jenni's and Jippus etc. songs is actually Finnish. Sweden is our neightbour country, so you did get it close! (Except our languages are not relatet.) If you like Swedish, try Kent. Now you can compare our languages And also check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z609EQ0dLJo&feature=BF&list=MLGxdCwVVULXedD9YQfsBd_oiHnAPq19yA&index=19 It is hugelly popular in Finland. And definitely something different And you might like Chisu, she's a bit like Jenni.

Serial monogamy, that's new term for me Do you mean going from one relationship straight to another? Finding oneself is really healthy! Have fun doing it!

Ok, I see your point Neph! I feel that I'm such a weirdo too, that I can't show myself (meaning the true me) to a complite stranger, I just can't. I must be able to trust someone and that I guess eliminates the dating aspect for me too. Not that I have a low selfasteem, no I like myself, but I don't see many people appreciating the same thinks that make me happy and giddy. And finding the people that do, is really really hard.

Do you go out on dates? Will you date a person that you are not interested, but he/she is asking? Just to see if there is a spark there? I did that yesterday, and it was only for a coffee. It didn't work. Awfull. He was cool and flirty and what ever. And he is really good looking. The problem was, I didn't feel right to ask the really important questions, those that matter to me. How on earth am I ever gonna date a stranger. Well, I won't. Too much pressure, especially if you are not totally into him/her. So, I've not been on dates for ages and I find them terrifying!

Hi! I'm currently writing a series of two boys with totally different cultural backgrounds. Other boy is Finnish and the other half Hawaiian. I'm not recommending though, but you might wanna check it out. It locates in America: NY and Honolulu, but also partly in Finland.

I'm more of a cynic than romantic optimist. I think I wander between those opposites (Romantic cynic?). BUT I want love and hopefully one day that'll come my bath. I'd rather be without a partner, than settle again in a relationship without love. I've been there and left that behind. And I think I'm capable of telling if someone just sweet talks me. I've been around the block for that long and seen all kinds of storytellers. See now, I have become a cynic... Tryong to learn to trust in people is hard, but I'm taking baby steps towards it. Still, love is such a powerfull forse not to hope to happen in my path too.

The poor boy is gonna run screaming with his high heels, when all his GA-groupies gather up! :lmao: Who else is on, Zolia Lily, Neph, anyone else?

Soo romantic I'd still rather take my chances on love than settle. I used to settle and wait for a miracle, not gonna do that anymore! I'd rather be alone than relying on faith that I'll grow to have feelings for someone...

When I asked about if ANDROGYNY is attractive, it was really about personal preference. But this led to much wider discussion about cultural and social limits of accepting differency. That's totally fine. I'm glad that this discussion has deepened from it's original, light hearted purpose. Coming back to the attractivity issue. To me the single most appealing thing in a person is his/her open mindedness. And kindness to other peoples feelings. And sensitivity. Those things have nothing to do with gender, sexuality or even masculinity or femininity. ( Amelia, I find you really attractive )

I think I would give a year of my life, my first born, well, almost anything to have a chance to meet the King of Rock, Freddie Mercury. He is the biggest idol I have ever had both with his bravery in personal life and an amazing vocals. His voice brings shivers every time I hear it. He was so full of energy and life as an artist. He was hot as hell and could pull out all kinds of looks from androgyne to ultra masculine without being any less of a man. *Points out to the androgyny discussion -->* The Show Must Go on always brings me close to tears. Maybe I'll meet him in afterlife.

I miss U Freddie Mercury...

Frostina, thanks for letting me of the hook! That kind of things annoy me to the max...

Gender identity and sexual identity and their represations are totally different matters and can be put together in all kinds of combinations. For me diversity is a richness of humanity, not something that should be judged. Tipdin, you didn't judge it and the wonder that you had about this issue is very valid. I don't think any of us can put ourselves in other peoples shoes (or heels) to fully understand what goes in their minds and reasons behind their actions and choises. And lol, your sisters soun cool! I really enjoy looking happy people wearing what ever they want and just simply being who they are. Many people explore different sides of their gender and maybe even try to expand the hetero normativity by choosing to go almost drag. I wear mens shirt, and trousers and even a tie sometimes quite happily and see nothing wrong with it. Dressing up in a skirt and heals etc. the whole femine package makes me feel fake and almost being in drag. I can find a man in dress totally sexy, not freaky at all. But every brain works differently, my brain is totally twisted and I don't mind at all

You look lovely!!!!! BTW, what's the book behind you in the first photo? I can almost see the cover and now that I don't it bugs me... Annoying
