hey karan
i'm back.
i'm glad you don't judge people on their sexuality. because alot of people do. i like your openess when it comes to the possibilty of falling for a woman someday. cause one really never knows. well... some of us know... but if i happend to fall for a guy, i wouldn't beat myself up either. i don't think it would happen, but who really knows.
yeah, johhny depp is a great actor. i'm not "hot" for him of course, but i think is incredibly talented. i really enjoyed Libertine myself.
i'm with you. many have told me about bettermost, and perhaps someday i'll go over there more permanently, but i really like this board alot more. it's not too big, and i love alot of our discussions. i won't leave until i'm not getting back from it.
take care...
"...later."

I'm a 15-year-old gay male from New Brunswick, Canada. I've known that I'm gay for about two and a half years now, but I've only told my best friend. I keep setting deadlines for myself to do it, but I can never bring myself to do it. "I'll do it over the summer vacation, when everyone's together and relaxed" was the last one. Now that I'm back to school, I don't know what I'll do. My dad is really conservative and my mom is really religeous, even so, I think she will take it better than him.
This movie really helped me come to terms with myself, and it was nice because my friend, Sascha, whom I came out to, suggested we see it together in theatres (although I told my parents I was going to see Curious George).

Dear tenacious D,
I'll tell you the same I told to my little brother when he wanted to come out to the folks:
Do not come out to your parents until you finish school.
Your sexuality is actually none of your parents business. It really is nobody's business but yours. Be discreet, don't answer any questions and don't explain. If your parents are cool enough to deal with that knowledge, they probably already know.

I finally got around to reading this thread!
Actually I'm kind of glad I waited until after I formed impressions of people from reading their posts.
Is it too late to join in?
I'm 37 (in two weeks), I have a 14 year old daughter, I was born in Croatia, live in Vancouver, BC, I ghostwrite for a living, I have a big black dog. This is kind of hard, actually. Bare facts make me shy.. unlike spilling my guts as I have on other threads, go figure.
Hi everyone.

And Brokeback is my favourite film of all time.
There are two things I will not tolerate: ignorance and intolerance!

I'm a 24 year old Bisexual male who's been living in Arizona for about ten years. i am born in California and have had traveled to few different states while growing up.
I don't really have a lot of friends, but that is pretty much because i always have my head in the clouds. I never dated, because i figured no one likes me that way. I can be wrong, but like i said, i live my head in the clouds.
I'm lazy and lack motivation, however that can change because I'm planning on going to community college for computer programming, computer graphics, creative writing, and literature. I'm currently learning japanese by myself.
I've also been kicked out of my apartment and ;living with my folks for short while. the reason why i was kicked out is but my own family buisness.
I have an Irish, german, French, and English blood heritage in me. But i do sometimes wondered if i ever had any other blood line some how?
Well, that's it about me.
It's jenova's friggin head!

How did I get the idea that you are Japanese and living in Japan? You're working on a screenplay, right?

Well, my turn. I'm David, 52, Live in Los Angeles, have also lived in NYC and San Fransisco. I've been involved in a kind of unusual profession. I'm a roller derby skater. Still at it until we can come up with enough younger skaters to take over for us veteran skaters. I'm 100% gay, came out at somewhere around 18 years old, have a lesbian younger sister. Have never had much problem with it partly because of living mainly in cities that are pretty accepting of it. Had a few bashing incidents through the years but fortunately not too many.
Because of being out so long I've seen alot and I alternate between being tolerent of things and people and getting rather fed up and frustrated with things. Being bipolar it's easy to switch back and forth like that.
Nice to meet you all.

40 something plus female with a significant other. I live on the west coast and am a bibliophile of the first order. Books are my passion. I use to post here a lot under another ID and actually know a few of you folks quite well, like Balrog and BannerHill but I had some really unpleasant experiences and prefer to keep the rest of my info private for that reason. But I am very glad to have been here on the BBM board for the last year and have met lots of really incredible folks and read a ton of incredible & insightful posts. Hi everyone.

I am a 19 year old hetero female. I haven't been on this board for very long but I do recognize a few names (I'm not sure how many of them will recognize me, though). I live on the west coast. I love acting, writing, watching good movies, and hanging out with my friends. I hope to some day become an actress. Hello to all!
I absolutely love BBM, as most here do.

I'm a bit of a lurker on these boards but I love them I thought I'd reply -
I'm 15 years old, female and Scottish through and through! First watched Brokeback just before the summer and have seen it many times since. I'm straight, though to be honest I think some of my friends think I'm gay because
I'm not really into the whole boyfriend thing that much (at least not the boys in my school) I enjoy acting but doubt I will ever get round to doing it or anything else for a living. Looks wise I'm a tall blonde which does mean that I get judged a lot, however the people that know me realise that I'm a lot more intelligent than they would have thought. Unfortunately it means less to me that my friends know that and I have always wished that I'd had brown hair so I would be taken more seriously. I'm very sarcastic, but Brokeback Mountain really makes my smile and is one of the very few films EVER that I've cried at. First time I watched I preferred Jack, but the second time I really preferred Ennis -strong and silent is hot!- though I guess I like both characters equally. I do know a guy my age that loves this film which I think is great, though a bit unusual and I wish more people were like him and didn't judge it as 'that gay cowboy movie'

hi sll. it's been a while, but i'm really excited that this thread took off the way it did.
i have to ask.. pockethankie... what's a bilbliophile? i'm sure it's got to be about books.. but what exactly? i love books myself.... i have a 600 hard cover library. and i wouldn't trade any of them for anything.
back to the thread... i'm a tad upset. i got a private message from someone who wrote "not nice" things about me being a "dyke" and such. initially i wanted to must give up the board.. but i decided i wouldn't let an ingnorant human chase me away. instead i think i'll share what they said...
from: fastlikeme2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Hello friend! I heard you're a dyke. Well let me tell you that is NOT okay. I know people have been mean to you your whole life because of it, and they are alright with doing that, because YOU are the deviant. Just because you have support in a message board made up of othelonely deviants does NOT validate the way you live your life. You will answer to Jesus one day. You will not be forgiven, your sister was right. Stop abusing humanity by being a lesbian, it is not okay. Shame on you.
i'm sorry.. i should be used to it, but it pisses me off just the same.

bibliophile = book lover....I may have made a typo in the original post and misspelled it. I have over 1000 books myself on a wide variety of subjects. They are like old friends to me, that you can revisit again and again and I love the feel of a book in my hands. You can travel anywhere, be anything, experience anything and you never have to leave home to do it. All my free time and discretionary income is spend on books, I come the thrift stores, library sales, garage sales looking for bargains. I got a First Edition of The Shipping News by Annie Proulx for $3.00 at the Friends of the Library book sale not too long ago...someone slipped up, lucky me.
Really sorry that some ignorant, arrogant, mean-spirited self righteous person felt it was OK to sent you that PM idgeet. I got a bunch like that with some comments about my children in them, then my son got one or two so I'm staying very private these days..we closed our old accounts and are keeping a low profile.

idgeet..
We need you back on the boards. I was so happy tonight to see you were back. I understand your discouragement (as you said on another thread, sorry i can't remember which one) with some of the discussions that have been going on here lately. I want us to get back to the good stuff.
I'm glad you decided to share the message instead of leaving the boards.
<<i'm sorry.. i should be used to it, but it pisses me off just the same.>>
nothing at all to be sorry for. And no, you shouldn't be used to it. And it pisses me off too, greatly.
anyway, good to see you back.
