Interesting isn't it?
That there are all those other topics on that side bar there and one little space for same-sex households. I don't know about the rest of you, but my concerns are pretty much the same as other folks--- buying a house, being married etc. I don't know that I can't speak to people who are straight about those things!
I appreciate the attempt to create space for Queer folks, but.... it's one of those things that gets a little weird, no?
Re: Interesting isn't it?
I always say that! I started the nest married to a man and now I am with a woman....
I have all the same questions! hahaha
I don't like the segregation either, but I can kind of understand why the admins might have created it.
On one hand some might be uncomfortable with others posting LGBT related threads in the forums, yet on the other hand some LGBT persons might get offended that they don't have their own forum.
It's kind of darned if you do, darned if you don't. So I understand, and it doesn't offend me. But if I have a question that is related to the forum's topic you can bet I'll post there.
I am a bisexual person in a hetero relationship, but I don't see the need to segregate I would still use the other forums even if I were with a woman. It isn't right you should feel you can only use this one I honestly don't think this was put on here to say it's the only one you can use but to simply ask questions to issues that aren't issues in hetero relationships. If someone says anything it's their problem not yours. Don't feel you have to stay hidden. You have just as much of a right to use any forum as anyone.
**and by issues that aren't in hetero relationships I mean problems with legality in states and all that. I don't think of it as different though. I am not trying to segregate your issues. Really the only one is the ridiculous laws with gay marriage. I mean most people want the same thing to get married and have a family gender has nothing to do with properly raising a family or how a marriage works. It's all to do with the couple.
