Sexuality

I'm soooo unsure of a safe post title for this one because it is such a touchy subject.... Homosexuality. Gays. Lesbians. Transgender. There, I said it!! Everyone has their own feelings about it. I don't see the need to go into a debate about it. After all, its their decision as to who the sleep with, wake up to, and spend their private time with.  In my head there are different "levels" of gays. You always have the Secret Gay/Lesbian, the one who hangs with the other "family"  but refuses to admit that they are "family" (totally didn't know what that meant until like 2 years ago.) You have your Awesome Gay/Lesbian that everyone seems to love! They are comfortable in their own skin, they are very easy to get along with & they don't hide who they are. And then you have the (DUH DUH DUH DUUUUUHHH) Flamboyant, LOUD, DRAMA FILLED, IN YO FACE, ALWAYS GOTTA BE SEEN Gay/Lesbian. And some people may mesh well with all 3. I don't know... Any who, today I saw some photos of a guy I know through a 3rd party & he was in full, head to toe, drag wear. Problem? No, absolutely not. In fact he was a very pretty woman once he was all done up. But as I was observing his make up I couldn't help but to question whether the transgender/cross dressing society really view women in the fashion that they portrait us. In all honesty, do you really think a woman walks around looking like we have snowflakes taking ownership of our cheek bones? So you really think our eyebrows have arch's like the Gateway Arch of St. Lewis? I would just prefer that when mimicking a woman's face, features or sorts, do it tastefully & don't make us look like a caricature drawn at a county fair. especially of you seem to be more comfortable dresses as one of us. I am very open to someone giving me a little more insight on this, seeing that I don't have any close Gay or Lesbian friends! In the meantime, present us well you fierce diva you!!
