I told my dad I was gay when I was 12 . He said no you're not. ..... Comphet. Disgruntled. Disconnected from your body is spot on. I've made my life making others happy ... Love y'all
Fun fact on the name flips, I'm a 45 yr old they-woman, and one of my nicknames was Walter. My brother used to call me Wally when I was younger. Then when I got to highschool age, he thought he'd evolve it to being more sophisticated, so Wally became Walter. Then he gave me a middle name and I became Walter Felix. Some friends showed up to my 16th birthday party, after forming a human pyramid in a rainstorm to steal a Walter St street-sign for me as a present, wrapped in newspaper. But side note: the name Felix for a girl? CUTE AS HECK.
Alyson, I feel so much of what you're saying. My own stifling of my sexuality came not from religion but from CSA and trauma and also coming from a culture where it's literally illegal - or was when I was growing up, but I've always been terribly queer to anyone who would know how to tell, or to my friends etc. But also feeling behind - till date, since I'm still celibate even though I've had chances but I've never had an experience of love or non consensual sex or intimacy. I still feel like it would be unfair of me to get involved with anyone (male or female or neither) because I'm not honest with myself, I don't know how to love anyone, I don't know how to even really like anyone, how do I let anyone in to my heart or body.
Damn Ive never heard another person speak so eloquently about the religious to queer path. I relate a lot to thinking I was supposed to choose asexuality/life celibacy because my religion influenced me to deny all sexual exploration
alyson says that her partner has integrity, but that's just matching her vibe... I mean, girl. Passing bills? She's literally doing god's work. And God is a woman, my dudes.
I have to admit I really struggle with the term “queer”. Apart from it being a slur historically, I also don’t know what it means. If someone says “I am in a queer relationship” I have no idea what they are talking about. I hope others enjoyed & understood what they were discussing on this episode.
it used to be a slur, you‘re correct. the original meaning was someone who was out of the ordinary in terms of behaviour and that got a negative connotation and eventually it was used to discribe people whose sexuality or gender presentation was out of the ordinary in a derogatory way. today we‘re reclaiming it to mean people whose sexuality or gender presentation is out of the ordinary (meaning not heterosexual and not looking like a ‚woman‘ or a ‚man‘) that includes people under the lgbtq+ umbrella, as well as anyone playing with their gender presentation, even if they identify as straight and cis. the reason a lot of young queer people like the term is because it‘s easy to say and includes everyone who wants to be included. in older generations you might find that people feel less comfortable with the word because they experienced the word being used as a slur only.
“If someone says ‘I am in a queer relationship’ I have no idea what they are talking about” Sorry, but what is there not to understand? Do you genuinely not know the meaning of the word or…?
Where have yall been?! I have to do the patreon thing I guess because you bitches are posting on here enough and then I miss yall and then you drop in 1 episode and tease us... I see what you're doing.... 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Yeah, this isn’t talked about enough. I’m in my late 20s and have never gone all the way or even had a relationship. I’m pretty outgoing about dating these days, but it took me about 14 years to come out of the closet-so much religious baggage.
Alyson Stoner absolutely rules. Can’t wait for part two

Alyson has all the makings of an excellent child psychologist and onset therapist.

Hey I hope you find healing in time. Go easy on yourself as best as you can.
I love classic old-fashioned male names for girls - Fred, George, Charlie.
