One lump or two?
Quite a few people now either know I’m a poofter or heavily suspect it. When going to buy coffee the other day I bumped into someone I knew (who knows about me) who was also looking to get themselves a cup so we headed over to the nearest Cos...
Words don’t come easy…
Words. Letters added together to form clumps of meaning. When I was questioning whether I might be bisexual I found not hostility exactly but noticeable resistance from some people who identified as gay. Some people since then have quite simply...
Happy Birthday Peter
You may be wondering, Peter who? I’m talking of none other than Peter Tatchell, tireless gay and human rights campaigner extraordinaire. It’s his birthday today, I shalln’t say how old though if you’re interested you could alw...

Is this love or confusion?
I came out to my Mum again today, probably the 10th or so time I’ve had to do this. She seems to think that if I don’t mention it for a while that it’s gone away but it’s never going to go away. I told her that I’ve pu...

My brain hurts
I’ve been doing some thinking, yeah my brain hurts now and everything. I was wondering if I could be a bit bi because I do find women beautiful and can see that certain women are sexy. I even find myself physically attractive to some women ...
Bottoms Are Tops!
I love bottoms. By that, I’m not talking the receptive partner during anal sex. I’m talking about bums, buns, butts, the derrière, the posterior, the rump. The male bum is a thing of beauty. There’s nothing nicer than seein...

I was looking at the graphic on Mr Fabulous‘ blog which says ‘Gay by Nature - Absolutely Fabulous By Choice‘ and also thinking on an article I saw at Queerlife.co.za today which you can read here. I really don’t like hearing a...
