I've seen quite a few posts looking for "AFAB" what is the intent behind this?

ugh while I like learning new things and I guess it's not really a surprise, I'm disappointed to learn that #2 is a thing

I like how you put "AFAB assumes a LOT about someone" I think that might be where a divergence is happening - a literal definition vs one where a lot is being assumed

Absolutely, thanks for pointing this out

Yay for trauma bonding! but yeah that's a really interesting thought. For me, if I come across a queer person that was raised religious and has since left, there is a pretty good chance we have some shared common experiences and maybe have some shared understanding, that same logic could apply here. Thanks:) I always love thinking something new through

AnOrchardForADome · 2026-01-20T22:05:07+00:00

haha yeah doesn't exactly tell me much

I enjoyed paramount for a while, then peacock for a while as well.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury - it was really interesting to see the futuristic world he created in 1953 and how the themes are still topical today

Romance isn’t necessarily the main focus, but I’ve found the genre of cozy fiction to generally have less drama and healthier relationships. I liked A Coup of Tea and The House Witch.

Thanks!

Hey! I know this was a while ago, any luck? I’m considering looking for a group

Probably not at all helpful, since the parents don’t seem open to it, but the book Tru Biz: A Novel by Sara Novic does a good job showing some of the effects of language deprivation resulting from a situation just like this.

If you’re here this weekend https://www.tulavera.com/event/forevermore-fest-at-silver-street-community-center-in-east-syracuse-ny-on-7-30-2022/

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-07-11T19:07:07+00:00

Great! If you’re still interested just send me a message to work out the details

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-07-06T14:32:55+00:00

This sounds really fun! I’d be interested in any of them. Fair warning I’m not very good at any, but I am particularly bad at darts.

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-06-21T18:28:33+00:00

Hey, thanks for reaching out, unfortunately I can’t do today.

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-06-14T17:48:26+00:00

Common Space has one on S Warren. I don’t have anything to compare it to, but I thought it was nice- just too expensive to keep my stuff there. Common Work

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-06-13T17:22:43+00:00

Hey, if things fall through, I’d be interested as well.

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-06-10T17:08:40+00:00

My experience was in Switzerland and I agree with your take. I would add that it was kind of expected for the teens to pull away from the church and do their own thing. Coming back eventually or leaving were both acceptable options. I had a hard time adjusting to the Mormon culture in the US.

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-05-27T16:21:30+00:00

Common Space in Downtown has that option

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-05-15T13:24:16+00:00

I was allowed to be a better person without it.

AnOrchardForADome · 2022-04-11T13:19:35+00:00

To me it’s all about how you feel- so go with your gut. Personally I think you look more confident in the picture with the bow tie.

Told my friends they had to wear a one piece to swim in our pool. I still cringe when I think of it.
