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?

Not being stereotypically feminine doesn't mean you're genderqueer. It also doesn't mean you aren't. No magic answers here, I'm afraid! -

Go team ace! I probably worked that one out like six years ago but it's still true. -

Uh, he's a gay Republican. A gay Republican in a party that spends all of its energy these days on eroding the rights of anyone not a Christian rich white cis heterosexual man. He'd probably get more votes running as a sparkly unicorn, no matter his politics. He seems like a decent dude... -

Ughhh. If you need internet hugs, I can provide :|b @DIZ: Intent is not magic. It's not like that's a difficult thing to realise is something that is not appropriate to say. -

And some states are doing their best to force people to prove that they are a citizen before getting emergency care. So. There's that. -

The difference is that the mafia would then set the fires. There, they're just waiting for it to happen on its own. -

You know, some towns in the US have opt-in fire departments. You have to pay an annual fee for the fire department to come to your house. -

Then I don't think you're actually against socialism. -

You know, in the US, you have to pay to use an ambulance. -

Still, pretending that the US south is the problem and that everything'd be just fine and dandy without the US south is not at all helpful. Particularly since there are plenty of people who aren't assholes from the south! -

That's not necessary and is probably actively harmful. Please don't equate bigot with southerner. -

Hey, Harlequin? Could you stop with the hipster misogyny? It's incredibly irritating. -

Most schools won't have out teachers. That doesn't mean anything about their quiltbag statuses. But more to the point, it doesn't matter if whoever you have as a sponsor is LGBT as long as they're willing to be your advocate whenever you need them. Talk to whoever's sponsoring the GSA... -

As I said, get at least one teacher on your side. If you're worried about the PE teachers being useless, then tell whoever your staff contact is that you're concerned and see if they'll do something about it. -

Zero-tolerance bullying policies unfortunately rarely work. I think the GSA at my high school was fairly successful? As far as I know, no one was bullied over it or anything. And there was something approaching a safe space. Just make sure you've got at least one teacher on your side... -

I mean that queer is not always a blanket term. o_o It can be used for everyone non-cisgendered heterosexual, but I at least mostly see it used for genderqueer. -
The QUILTBAG Club (formerly the LGBT club)
Nah. 'Queer' isn't always used as a blanket term, and it also doesn't really include the A. -

Me too! It's much more inclusive. And it's a word! And everyone likes quilts, right?!
