Guelph is probably one of the most queer tolerant cities in Canada, and the university is even more so.

Yes, but in this case, all these people are Bajans....

Anyhoo...I just go to VG's to watch the hockey games on the projectors (last year obviously) and to the third floor for special occasions like this one...which seem to only happen on Sundays...the big 3rd floor rentals and huge covers...
There's always the problem afterwards where you have no DD and there's only 2 cabs in the city so you have to wait 2hrs for a cab while huddling in a doorway shivvering...that's what this pics is about btw. He was calling another cab. The more you call, the fasta they come so everyone has to call one...

I actually spend 90% of my time in the Brass Taps (Keg) but didn't mention it since it's a students-only place.

My best friend is gay and when he finally told me I was like, "Dude, I don't care. You're like family to me, why would that matter?"

Suffice it to say, he was relieved and he was feeling more awkward before he told me this than after. After he told me, nothing changed and he actually became more friendly and open than I remember him when he finally could be how he felt for many years.


Dont worry too much, you're in the awkward adjustment phase for your friends and family. For some it's easier and shorter than others.

>>>
What I heard about coming out is completely different from the reality and will and grace is full of sh!t.
>>>

i like how you came to that conclusion after a FEW HOURS :)

I would say: chill and let your emotions settle.

If your frinds are REAL friends they will still be friends regardless...if not then it doesnt really matter :)

Btw. i always think that (most) girls have a very good gaydar, you really think they (your friends, female AND male) never expected or thought about that before ? And...still...its still not a big issue. Some people are gay, same are not, same are even bi....life goes on etc...who cares... (its not that we live in 1950)

I came out the closet not too long ago. But that's only because it was dark at night and I thought it was the door to the hallway leading to the washroom :eek:

I don't approve of someone choosing to be gay, but it's not my choice to make for you (or my place to judge). Whatevery you believe in be proud of it.

The Catholic one still has problems but a couple came over last night to watch survivor and I could tell they were intentionally making with the girl talk. One of them found out how hard it hit me when they made it clear that the girl talk from me made them uncomfortable and I guess it got around. So I guess they've accepted it.

You have to realize that you don't necessarily have to make girl talk just because you're gay. You don't have to be effiminate and flamboyant. I realize there's a tendency towards that when you first come out, because that's what our 'gay role models' on TV show us. For that reason, most people who come out are initially very flamboyant (god knows I was) but eventually find their own personality. I'm just saying that you shouldn't try to fit in to what people expect you to be.

Oh, and be careful since you're new. THere's going to be a lot of wild stuff available to you now, and you should... moderate yourself. And always always always use a condom, don't go for any lines like, "I can't keep it up with a condom..." It's not worth dying for.

Congradulations. :)
