Thank you Superfemme. You did not have to do this.
Love, Andrew |
This thread truly makes me smile at the love and admiration we have for our friends. Sometimes when we feel beaten and bruised, we tend to forget all the positive that we bring to others. THANK YOU all for holding up the mirror.
I would like to hold up a mirror for PixieStars... Oh my sweet Pixie, you have an playful spirit and carefree energy that lights up a room the minute you walk in. You see the goodness and beauty in your femme sisters and just have a way of making us smile at a simple "Hey gorgeous". You have a zest for life ~ always open and wanting to live & learn about everything & everyone. You are a beautiful woman, with heart of gold, that loves with all you are. |

I hold up a mirror for PinkieLee Cougarette

i hold up a mirror for The Femme Triumvirate: Bit, Arwen and Gemme who inspire any baby steps toward bravery that i am ever able to make. your splendid gloriosity makes it possible for me to twinkle like a little star.
i hold up a mirror for Violane, Fairy Crow Shaman. your words and your calling powers are mystical and beautiful and true. i believe in magic because you are yourself. i hold up a mirror for every one of you who speaks their truth, using words that are personally meaningful and calling on experiences that i could never know entirely even if i stood side by side with you while your story unfolded, regardless of naysaying and derision. i honor you for every hard won realization and stumbling step toward personal enlightenment and i pray to all that is wise i may follow in your footsteps and never ever ever take for granted the work of those who learned the harsh beauty of life before i did. |
Ok, totally cool concept :goodscore: I'll be back later...with the Mirror :bluebat: :daywalker: |

Now, we'll have to get matching costumes or, at the very least, matching tiaras. Okay, maybe color-coordinated outfits. Yes? Hippie, you ARE brave and a little star! Thank you for your kind words. |
I am holding a mirror up for Dean:
He not only has made me laugh and goes along in the fluff threads but one particular post tonight really made me stop and think, he puts posts together and does it with his true feelings with valid reasonings behind the posts as well. He has bigger balls than I ever will. |
I am holding up a mirror for Violane. I met her online many years ago. We both struggled to communicate online, but somehow we managed. And today we are such good friends. Our love for our animals just binds us. We can talk for hours and hours about our kids. She is a joy to be around, and so smart. Growing up, I would get on my knees and pray for a sister, and I didn't get one then. But I got one years later in Violane. I thank God for her each and every day.
Love, Andrew oxox |
i'm holding up a mirror for canmarielan for starting the 'biggest loser' thread and being an inspiration to me.
i'm holding up a mirror for lieslkate for having the ovaries to not let a rude and abusive asshat ruin her outlook. i'm holding up a mirror for my little gemmie-pooh because she needs to look at herself more often and to appreciate what she sees. i'm holding up a mirror for diva because she rocks my world in general. i'm holding up a mirror for arwen because i re-read a bunch o'posts she wrote in a very divisive thread a while back and had to smile over the way she gently and oh so daintily slapped someone down for refusing accountability. i'm holding up a mirror for jack and medusa and linus because this place is still afloat after all the techno-geekery that went on last weekend. i dont really understand how it all works but then, i'm just the decorative sort. i'm holding up a mirror for my secret BFP crush because i like to watch her stomping through the threads kicking ass and taking names. my spine gets an inch or so longer every time i read something she wrote. (thanx to her i'm almost 8 feet tall) |

Greyson is one of the most gracious guys I've ever had the pleasure of exchanging with—even briefly. He has a class about him that isn't acquired, but natural in his throughtfulness of others. I've noticed this. My regret is that we haven't exchanged more. |

Plato held a mirror over my mouth this morning to see if it would fog up.
I licked it. |
Im holding up a mirror for Bit-
Cath you are intelligent and articulate. You are beautiful and creative. Your warmth radiates from your words. Your dedication to helping others find resources to help them grow has been a community building pillar that has helped countless people evolve and feel connected, supported, and SEEN. Your humor is a compassionate one. Your giggle is infectious. You have an integrity that can be relied on. You are loved. |
I should probably get a disco ball. I have that many mirrors to hold up.
Fierce Femmes. Gender Warriors. Butches. Butches. All and every flavor. Contrarians. Thinkers. Knowledge Seekers. Knowledge Sharers. You make my fat bottom go round. |

i hold up a mirror for Violane, Fairy Crow Shaman. your words and your calling powers are mystical and beautiful and true. i believe in magic because you are yourself. wow- thank you so kindly! i would have missed this if not for someone letting me know earlier tonight- i appreciate your taking a moment to think of me- I am holding up a mirror for Violane. I met her online many years ago. We both struggled to communicate online, but somehow we managed. And today we are such good friends. Our love for our animals just binds us. We can talk for hours and hours about our kids. She is a joy to be around, and so smart. Growing up, I would get on my knees and pray for a sister, and I didn't get one then. But I got one years later in Violane. I thank God for her each and every day. Love, Andrew oxox you too! oh my goodness- such sweetness, andrew! xo it's true, we did not go over famously back then, & may not still at times- ;) well, you're an easy "brother" to be around, and thank you for all the love you freely share with animal-friends! xo |
Ditto on Violaine.
She's always been very kind to me. |
{{{{{{{{{{{{Kathlene, Misha}}}}}}}}}}} Thank you both so very much! I don't know what made me come and read this thread but I'm so glad I did!
I hold a mirror up for both of you---you also are articulate and intelligent, and highly thoughtful! Each in your own way, you also build community here. I'm so glad you're in my life! |
i'm holding up a mirror for any and all BFPlanteers i've offended, pissed off, wronged, skeeved, slighted, annoyed, hurt, mystified, and/or otherwise maligned.
thank you for being honest about the way my words and/or actions make/made you feel. i like it when people are straight with me in an honest and non-humiliating way. i know it's not easy to sit with the discomfort that discussions about hurt feelings and offensive words generate. i appreciate the effort it takes to have such conversations. looking back over the last 10 years gives me comfort because i've had to be smacked upside the head less and less, thank the Universe. i feel some of those smacks keenly still, but i know they were appropriate to the circumstances at the time and i'm glad i remember them if for no other reason than they sometimes make me hesitate before i engage in my own special brand of asshatery. thank you to those who mentor me through my attempts to embrace my humanity, for witnessing my struggle to be less of a jerk and acknowledging same, and for being gentle with me while i flounder around like an idiot trying to avoid the unavoidable journey. |
