Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

That describes most of my nights. It just means you're sinking into the excellent stereotype. -

Here's something I thought was pretty cool. From the Aeroflot in-flight magazine: -

Oh dear lord, can we refrain from engaging in pop evolutionary psychology. Saying "humans are pack animals and that's why we behave the way we do" is at best ludicrously simplistic. -

It's about fucking time. -

Prop 8 ruling upheld on appeal. -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
Yeah, but that's because most people probably mean sex when they think of that. Basically I think everyone is very confused and somehow trying to fit trans identities into a single category that will cover both sex and gender, even though the entire point is that for trans people, those aren't... -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
I think there needs to be a clearer statement of whether official documents are supposed to state sex, gender, or both - that article strikes me as meaning gender when it says sex. I remember people complaining about the UK census, which listed only "male" and "female" under the question... -

Wait, why on earth are you okay with joining an implicitly homophobic party but not an explicitly homophobic one? Surely the former is even worse? -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
It's the difference between groups of violent homophobic extremists (relatively easy to deal with) and an utterly ingrained societal and cultural norm (not so much). -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
Don't take this the wrong way, but... why do you care? So maybe you're not gay. Who cares? Has your entire life hinged on the fact that you might be gay? So maybe you're not sure what you are! Who cares? Maybe you're bi, or maybe you're gay but just happen to like this one girl. Maybe you like... -

My one reference point (The Hours again) does suggest that he was a pretty cool guy. -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
Huh! That's really interesting. Yeah, my perception was coloured by The Hours, but I suppose that shows only a very short span of time! I wonder what her husband thought about it. -

I confess I had no idea Virginia Woolf was gay. o.o -

Do not speak to me about QAF US. QAF US does not exist. Clear? Clear. -

Obligatory shout-out to Queer as Folk (which is admittedly a miniseries, not a film, but still). -

I believe sexuality is fluid throughout the teenage years, and therefore it is very silly to label yourself as anything until you've well and truly got through puberty. I also think it's very silly to label yourself as anything afterwards, but that's a different matter. -

Uh, yeah, Harlequin said that mammals are the only class of animals to not display some form of asexual reproduction. I'm not sure offhand if that's quite true, but certainly it is more widespread among animals than one might think. -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
Not really! Ignorance isn't the same as stupidity. Also, I'm a natsci, I'm allowed to nitpick: bacteria can reproduce sexually and things other than bacteria can reproduce asexually. -

I was responding to Harlequin and his use of the word 'wired'. -

I am and will always be deeply suspicious of any study that claims to have discovered an innate difference between the sexes. No experiment can be controlled well enough to remove entirely the effect of society.
