Hi everyone,
It’s my first post today, so just as an introduction, I wanted to take the “about me” from my blog before I lunge into anything else. I look forward to reading the posts here, and making some great connections.

The Many Faces Of Adoption

This next subject is as universal as the human experience and spreads throughout the world in many different forms, both legal and illegal, friendly and stolen, and in the mere disappearance of one child and unannounced appearance of another – no questions asked. There are so many other on the black market and simply sold children for economic reasons in the poorest of regions and the wealthiest of communities as if a child is a simple commodity, not a living, breathing life. In between there exist the most vilest of the child trade for sex, work and any other whim an entitled person might feel to any other thing on the market place to be bartered over as if it were a trinket in the world’s largest flea market. I grew up an adopted person amidst these images and one pondering what made me so fortunate to get the luck of the draw, ending up with upper, middle-class, phenomenal parents through a Los Angeles Superior Court County Adoption, is a tale of randomness in the extreme.

GUEST POST: Don’t Lick The Ferrets

guest-post-dont-lick-the-ferrets

Hot:

I was very sheltered as a child and young adult. I didn’t have first hand experience with the gay community until I did an AIDS Ride and realized I didn’t HAVE to date men (and I finally understood WHY I never did well in relationships (or the bedroom) with them.
I immediately began [...]

I have grown up in a very conservative environment, especially as an Indian female in South Africa. SA has its own issues with race just like the rest of the world and of course being anything but heterosexual is an issue for millions of people out there.  We were never exposed to love and life [...]

Hot:

Conversation before bed one night:
Her: What happened to the toilet?
Me: I cleaned it.
Her: Huh. Weird.
It’s 10:30pm and I’m waiting for bread to rise. Way back in the pantry, I found a “European Cheese and Herb” bread machine bread mix. I don’t even have a bread machine. There are instructions on how to make it without [...]

Lesbian Quotes
