A bunch of locals were mad that our town did nothing at all for veterans Day. But, we did have some random woman riding a horse all through town carrying a giant flag so we got that going for us I guess.
I have a niece that when she was 20 told me she was Lesbian. Now that she is getting ready to turn 30, she is engaged to a nice young man and is heterosexual. I just think when you are that young you are just looking for love and really do not care where it comes from. I am also told I am old and have no idea how the world is now.
She's in a "hetero-normative" relationship but she might also still experience attraction to women and non-binary folks. Have you ever asked her?
Friendships in middle, high school and college between girls can be super intense and intimate, and with gobs of hormones on board I feel like we all ended up with crushes on some of our female friends. I probably made out with almost as many girls as guys in high school, but it turns out I’m actually pretty straight. Doesn’t mean there wasn’t attraction there, and there were a few years where I legitimately thought I was closer to the middle of the spectrum.
When I was in high school, there were a bunch of girls (maybe ten) who said they were lesbians, and they were really out in the open about it. By their early twenties, all of them were married with kids. Most of them didn't even make it to graduation.
100% It's also annoying because when I do see something that benefits veterans, it's just for the overlap of senior + veteran. It puts a divide up. They should be allowing vets and their families to come get the free pancake breakfast or whatever. It could potentially foster connections but they isolate the eligible and complain when VFWs are dying out. Third spaces? What's that?
