Queer box fit fundraiser was great! Found the queerios my age, finally!!!

talk about digging, they don't make things easy to find!

Looked for a lot of links to things on facebook.

There's a genderqueer glitter dance party June 22nd 9pm at the wise hall. to raise money for the cathrine white holeman wellness centre.

Sure, would love to meet up. I'm finding being back home to be a little bit baffling now. But that's to be expected. I was told around the 6 month mark all the things I would find a didn't get about my own group would pop up.

It took 10 years to enculturate me to different things, that's not easily undone. And I don't know which things are just my personality, which things are cultural and which things will change.

I really am at a loss with how to socialise with dykes/queers. I got so baffled I went and sat down with a jamacian dude because a) I knew he was foriegn and I could sort of breathe in that corner b) I could ask him for his blunt perspective c) he'd more than likely find me amusing.

No effort to make conversation. Butches? heaps of effort to make conversation with not much luck. Gave up and sat with big bouncer, less work. He seemed genuinely passively interested.

Lots of times in england I'd give up and go and talk to the angry scottish person in the corner. Much easier.

Maybe I'm just the chick that talks to people in corners.

I have trouble making queer friends in general.

I am not a vegetarian, not tall thin and andro. I don't ride a bicycle everywhere. I am not that political, I am not so into gender theory, and I am not trans.

Seriously, if I go hang out with people my age, I feel invisible.

I'm a nerd, who likes cats, and sci/fi, and just hanging out with my friends.

*knock knock knock*

Does anyone come 'round this neck o' the woods anymore?

I find it VERY rare to come across someone on this site from this area. Are you from vancouver or nearby?

Vancouver! :) We do seem to be sparse, don't we?

Yep, I'm in Vancouver. I'm in the east end.
