If only they'd look closer...

How I started TDOR

Only watch if you have time to put some tape on the cracks that will form on your heart (as well as ten minutes to actually watch it).

As one woman noted...it's a time to be thankful for what I have.

I have a partner who doesn't think any of my experimenting it disgusting. A partner who treats me as a lover first, a human second, a gender last.

I have family that is supportive.

I have a body that has not been violated by people who think that violation will make me more of a woman.

I have a life. A life that has not been threatened by words or beatings.

And I intend to live it, to defy those who hate, and to teach those who are open. That we are, above anything else, human beings who just want to live our lives without hurting anyone else, and without being hurt for being who we are.

My strength is only strong enough for me

Hey you're so young
You're going somewhere that I wish I'd gone
And I'm trying not to cry
Seeing how my life has passed me by
Can I be
True to me
Knowing that I'll never be
That girl
Who I want to see
Staring straight back at me
...
Don't you see
You're killing me
Stopping me from being
That girl
Who I want to see
Staring straight back at me

How I wish I'd been unborn...

So...speech went well. Found out I've got a deficency in the class, but I can dig my way out. It was so hard because I mentioned Lawrence King since he was in the TDOR vid and...

*sigh*

Listening to Sexcrime is probably not good today...hmm. But Annie's hottness makes up for the depressing.

I wish we could have candles in the dorms. I'd totally light one tonight.

Instead...prayer sounds good.

Okay, I believe I'd heard of the Midwest Teen Sex Show before, but I'd never watched it until now.
