"You're the first normal gay guy I've met"
I never really know how to take this comment. I usually take it as a positive, in that their views on gay people might now change, but still 🙃.

If you hear anyone saying that - RUN. It’s no different from treater a waitress/waiter shit. Just a sign of a psycho w double standards

So I get this a lot by Tops as if they’re trying to stereotype bottoms = effeminate

What does that even mean? What is a normal gay guy?

“How do you know? Maybe you know lots, and they just never told you.”

People generally mean it as a compliment, but it’s pretty ignorant and kind of gross.

Been running on self-will for the duration of this lockdown. My reserves that I built up in this program are depleted. Thankfully I was able to attend a meeting this evening, and the topic was 3rd step. Funny how that happens. Good reminder that a life run on self-will can hardly be a success.

Hello! I’m doing an “eat the alphabet” activity with my friend where each letter red presents a country, I.e. (A)fghanistan, (B)razil, etc. I’m currently at O and looking for recommendations for Oaxacan restaurants (Oman is the only country that starts with O but there aren’t any restaurants serving it’s food in NYC so extending to cities/regions). Anyone have recommendations for a Oaxacan, not just Mexican, restaurant that is also affordable? Thanks!

Has anyone started a new job right before going on maternity leave? I’m secure at my current company and know I am fortunate to have a job/have paid maternity leave on the horizon, but I am starting to get concerned the mental toll of staying at my current company is not worth it (have been feeling this way for months before I found out I was pregnant). I have a few other job prospects, but none know I am pregnant...
