Ok, first thing's first... I'm a total noob with the whole blogging thing. I admit it, I'm outdated. And shamefully so considering I'm supposed to be a part of the great technology generation! Seriously, how many 25 year olds do you know that don't have a blog?
Yeah, me neither!
I suppose I thought that there was no point in starting a blog as I rarely ever have anything of any importance to say. However after reading countless blogs filled to the brim with useless crap I never needed to know, I can safely say that I'm not alone in that regard. If you know me then you might be interested in knowing what's going on in my life. If you don't know me personally, then I guess I can at least hope for a little vouyeristic tendency, plus I've been told I can be quite amusing at times, so I have that going for me too.
So let's see, where to begin?
I'm 25 years old. I live in Perth, Western Australia with my boyfriend, Steve. I hate that, "boyfriend". Every time I say it makes me feel like a little ditz in high school. I don't know why, but it does, so I avoid it. Usually I go with "partner" instead, but that makes me sound like a lesbian, so I'm not rapt with that option either. Not that there's anything wrong with being a lesbian, I just don't want people to think I AM one... shit, apparently my foot in mouth disease is playing up again. It does that from time to time.
Moving on... On the subject of all things sexuality, I'll get it out of the way now. Although I'm not a lesbian, I AM bisexual, so you'll see a lot of gay rights and gay law reform support on this page. If you have a problem with that... BYE! I've heard people criticize bisexuals, both straight people AND gay folks! I understand the straight people being all pissy about it, people hate what they fear and they fear what they don't understand. But I really can't get my head around gay people objecting to my bisexuality. I mean, I don't even know where to begin arguing that point, but I'll give it a shot anyway...
No. I am NOT confused! I know who I am and what I want.
No. I am NOT greedy. I don't want more than one partner at a time, it just happens to be that I'm sexually and romantically attracted to men and women in equal amounts.
No. I am NOT a slut or promiscuous in any way! Some people have this idea that if you're bisexual, espescially a bisexual woman, that you must be a slut. That in relationships, you can and will sleep around with other people, just because you're bi. This is SO not true! Being bisexual doesn't give you a right to cheat on your partner or sleep around. I can't speak for all bisexuals, but I have never in my life ever cheated on any boyfriend OR girlfriend I've ever had, and I never will! To all the people that say things like, "But it's not cheating if it's with the same sex..." I say BULLSHIT! If you leave your partner at home to go out and have sex with another person, ANY other person, then you're cheating! People like that give the rest of us a bad name.
My number one HATE is intollerance. I figure there's enough REAL problems to worry about in this world without people running their mouths off with their unsolicited opinions about the way I, or anyone else, run's their lives. If you want to protest something, find something WORTH protesting! Protest the slaughter of innocent woman and children through war. Protest the prohibition of a completely harmless and much misunderstood drug. Protest and work to fight against the child slave trade that goes on everyday right under our noses. But don't hassle some innocent bystander jsut because his/her bedroom habits are different to yours!
Wow, this harmless blog quickly turned into a rant. Sorry about that. I promise I'm not usually a ranter. There are just a few subjects that really get under my skin, and that happens to be one of them.
Ok, moving on... more about me.
I'm a smoker, yet another controversial facet of me. I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I hate when people feel justified in looking down their nose at me, or anyone else, just because I smoke. I hate that fake cough thing people do! It's SO annoying!! Once I sat down at a bus stop and was sitting for five minutes alone, and since no one was around I sparked up a cigarette. In less than a minute, some woman came and sat down next to me and was all *cough, cough* and looking at me with that look like I was beneath her. I was offended on different levels! Firstly, how dare you judge me for my choices! I'm not looking down my nose at you for that miniskirt that allows all the guys across the road to see what you had for breakfast! Secondly, I was sitting here by myself minding my own business, you CHOSE to sit next to me! If it bothers you so much, why the HELL did you sit here, knowing I was smoking?!
Ok, I think that's enough of the introductions for now... for someone who doesn't have a lot to say I sure have run my mouth off here!
