This has been an interesting spin-off of my original Music Festival post.
Being at the music festival made me wonder just what is the difference in
the way that men look at people and women look at them.  I was certainly
looking around, and sensed myself being looked at.  But none of it felt
yucky or threatening.  What makes the difference?

But even a genuine assault rifle probably wouldn't deter some of those 
assholes.  They don't think a woman will do anything.  Remember the story
about the woman who murdered her husband by pouring gasoline on him while
he was lying in bed.  While she stood there with the match in her hand,
he sneered, "you won't do it, you don't have the guts".

No. I don't know what the pp stands for, but "Owen pp Gwendolin" means
"Owen writing on behalf of Gwendolin". Secretaries use it when writing
letters on behalf of the people they work for. I used it sometimes
(although not for a while) because Gwendolin is a female name I might
use for myself. On the other hand, I really rather like the name Owen.
I am Owen, it identifies me. It just so happens that Owen might be
a woman that's all. Trying to pass as female and then giving a male
name couod be tricky though, so I'll probaby use Gwendolin or Gwen. Sigh.
Don't you just hate society? By the way, "Owen" means "Young warrior".

been circulating.  I have no idea whether this is true or simply spiteful.  But

Hi...

  You might remember me from awhile back as a guy who was getting together
info on a panel discussion day about ROTC's policies versus the homosexual
student. 

The day is coming along in our plans nicely --it is now slated for October
15th (or the closest friday).  

What I need are testimonies from people who have been kicked out of ROTC
programs because of their sexuality.  I need to know pretty much exactly
what happened, what the results were, and how it has affected the person's
life.  These will be read EXACTLY as they are sent to me, by MYSELF in front
of the entire attendance and participants of the discussion day.

I will change names unless I am told otherwise.

If you'd like to be a part of this, please email your testimony to the address
in the sig file.

Thank You,

Seconded. Whenever a new les/gay/bi book, pamphlet, TV programme etc. is
produced, a complaint often heard is "Hmmm... yes, it's good, but there
are so many *other* things which it could have said and didn't." I hate
it when people give such criticisms since it is stating the obvious and
makes about as much sense as offering "Hmmm... yes it's good, but
1+1=2" as a criticism. It is impossible for a single book, TV programme
or pamphlet to deal comprehensively with all aspects of les/gay/bi
sexuality.

You *can't* say everything in one A4-size pamphlet. Within the
limitations of space, the pamphlet was *excellent* (IMHO:-): it broke
down a number of stereotypes and misconceptions and a clear and readable
way. I especially like the way each question seems to follow-on
naturally from the previous answer. This gives a sense of continuity
which aids readability.


Constructive criticisms:

1. Some linguists cringe when they see the word "gender" misused. The
correct word is "sex". However, in this case I think it is valid to say
"fuck the linguists (especially the cute ones:-)!" and continue to
misuse "gender" since using "sex" might confuse people.

2. You said that there are no local bi groups which could have been
mentioned in the leaflet. How about mentioning national ones? (Some
closetted bifolk might be willing to make a long-distance phonecall.)
You might also give the phone number for the nearest les/gay
information line. Lastly, you might consider listing a few bi books
("Bi Any Other Name" etc) and mentioning which, if any, local bookshops
stock them. Try to give enough details (author, publisher, ISBN, price)
so that the person will be able to ask a bookshop to order it for them.
(Of course, being able to squeeze in all this information is highly
dependent on how much space you have left on the pamphlet.)

Actually, I read it that the pamphlet is assuming that the reader is

pamphlet is also straight).

Clause 28, a.k.a Section 28 or 29 was the oft-resited (and recited) bit of
the local government act which forbade the promoting of homosexuality by
local authorities. This was generally taken to mean that local libraries
could not stock books which accomplished this, and schools could not mention
homosexuality as a valid alternative to heterosexuality (& why do the straights
seem to find the gay lifestyle so damn' seductive that all their programming
can be disrupted by the mere concept of same-sex love?). Fortunately, Oxford
at least seems to have disregarded this as an unlawful and stupid attempt by
central government to interfere in matters which are the prerogative of local
govt.

Clause 10 was proposed by Geoffrey "They're all Satanists" Dickens, and forbade
pagans to take children along to their religious occasions (pretty mindboggling
if you are the type of pagan who regards all of life as religious!).. and it
failed, praise the Goddess ;-)

The law allowing the police/crown prosecution service etc. to cite silence
on arrest as admission that one was not whiter-than-white galled me with its
attack on the Innocent until Proven Guilty premise.

This is kind of a strange observation... the gay men I know are
all much more accepting of my bi idenity than the lesbians I know.
On second thought, maybe that isn't strange at all... a person
os the oppisite gender must be much less threatening than a motss bi.

Another thing that I have had problems with sterotypes of bi women
is as the sort of ultimate fag hag. I actually had a very good friend
of mine say to me once: "You know, bi women make the best fag hags,
because they're queer, so they're family, but you can cruise men
with them anyway."

One of my fantasies is to be a woman for a {day|week|month|year} so I
can a) see what being fucked in a vagina feels like, and b) do something
positive about harassment, like castrating the harassers. It's a longish
while since I was fucked anally bi a man, partly on safety grounds and
partly lack of opportunity :-( but the feeling is wonderful and used to
last for a day at least, bringing back memories each time I bent over,
walked, sat down etc.

Exactly.
