• 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?

    Aaaaaahhhh it is so good :D It's a modern updating, but it's done by people who clearly absolutely adore the source material and rather than make a film with lots of sex and explosions, want to do justice to the things that Sherlock Holmes has always been about, and without the trappings of...

    Funny you should say that; I really liked Dawn and Tim's relationship in the UK version of The Office. I don't want to ruin it if you've not seen it (if you haven't, I recommend it - it's two series of six half-hour episodes, so you can see the whole thing in an afternoon, with the adorableness...

    Mmm, but while I'm an ardent lover of subtext, there's really something to be said for maintext. I love Sherlock ripping John's clothes off in a darkened swimming pool as much as the next person (okay, perhaps a bit more), but regulating gay relationships to just subtext is pretty problematic...

    I remember on rental videos (and possibly DVDs? I'm showing my age now, haha), they used to break down the film's classification into "Language, Sex, Violence, Other" (also, incidentally, a Stereophonics album name), which was useful to me because I don't care about language - I really don't...

    I don't mind sex on TV as long as there's a bit of warning for it. I remember a couple of times watching series 6 of Buffy when a scene with standard Buffyish stuff would suddenly cut to Buffy and Spike having noisy sex and it would always make me go O.o I think most people have things that...

    That's really awful ): And, in my experience, pretty unusual. I hold hands and act couple-y with lots of my female friends and I haven't had anything like that in ages. Over the summer, my sister and I were in Nottingham and were holding hands and got talking to a guy on the street who was...

    Oh christ, I have the same thing. And it's not just with people I'm attracted to - every so often I'll be around someone (male or female) I am sure is gay and I'll feel like we have a ~special gay bond~ and then suddenly one day they mention their opposite-sex partner or whatever in passing and...

    This story is equal parts sad and awesome. Call me cynical (I'm usually not, but I think I sort-of am in relation to this), I'll like the modern day when you can be gay without being bombarded with questions about it, or having to 'confirm rumours' or things. Nobody has ever been asked "So when...

    ...Will and I got really off-track playing Trivial Pursuit while answering some History questions, and Rachel makes orgasmically good carrot cake. Uh. Well I figured that the pink triangle is a little better-known, and "I am secretly a black triangle" would be a little too subtle. Or something...

    Is polyamory a queer issue? I mean, aside from it being a relationship-in-general issue. Huh. It wasn't for the NCOD or anything, but I came out to one of my housemates the other day in possibly the least sensical way in recorded history. I can't even remember exactly what was said, but at some...

    gtfo D< So! I signed up to my uni's newly-established feminist society and went to their first meeting on Monday (and dragged opal along because I could, hahaha), and we ended up being there for hours because it was excellent. During the course of conversation, I mentioned I wasn't straight and...

    Please, ignore me if I'm being invasive. How are you going to introduce yourself at uni? Will your lecturers/seminar leaders know you're trans if you're on the register as Brandon? On the "who knows that you're LGBT?" thing, friends at uni know (most of them are gay themselves), family almost...

    The fact that CJ/Allison Janney is in that (and as a gay-hating Republican!) amuses me so, so much <3 I love Spaekle's vid, too. The original is bloody scary, though o.O

    Whooo Slovenia! :D God, UK, get yourself together. Speaking of the UK, the BBC did a report the other day and found that out of 126 hours of broadcasting, 46 minutes of it showed positive gay representation. Also, "BBC One transmitted 44 seconds of positive and realistic portrayal of gay...

    Hehe, thank you :) That's really interesting and very true. I read a study a while back (it might've been posted here, actually) that essentially said that children raised with two mothers, compared to those with a mother and father, tended to be better-adjusted. Aha, here we go: Lesbian...

    Awww, I loved reading the comments section on that blogpost <3 Obviously religious people oppressing the LGBT community hurts, but gay people hating all religious people/Christians on sight is just as narrow-minded. I really love it when the two viewpoints come together like that. Hehe, Dinru's...

    APPROVAL :D I've done that before. Though I have a terrible habit of picking at my nails, eating the paint and then feeling ill afterwards, though, so I don't do it anymore. I'm a fool. I think the "genderqueer" thing is a lot more common than you'd think. I mean, who wouldn't want to be free...

    ): That's awful. Are you doing okay? Have you spoken to her about it? Good luck! :D I don't know if anyone here has seen or even heard of the TV series Dead Like Me? It was made by the same guy who made Pushing Daisies (and was likewise prematurely cancelled). I was watching S2 today, and...
