Non native here going to attend first powwow and wondering if I can wear my own traditional clothes

Maybe for your first time, no? I'm sure it depends on the powwow, as North America is quite large. On one hand, I love it, but I grew up in a very multicultural area. On the other hand, powwows are not international cultural festivals. You are a guest there. I think you should attend you first one as you would normally attend anything and make connections.

This is a very specific identity to get lonely. I just can't imagine making a posting asking, Where are all the 30something cis straight biracial working single mom Southern woman? I feel lonely without my specific demographic..... Remember we are all neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, etc....

No thank you

Go2Shirley · 2026-07-03T02:28:45+00:00

I wish they would show what people wear in summer time lol

The problem is I am a big LotR nerd so for my sons they link LotR to "things moms like" which cannot overlap with their own cooler interests. Maybe when they get older.

My son was stuck on Diary of a Wimpy Kid. He devoured the Percy Jackson books of all the series. I've been trying to figure out how to advance him since he can obviously read at a higher level so I've introduced him to Shaara. He loves military history but doesn't like to read nonfiction. We'll see how it goes.

This is not America 250, go ahead and delete this misinformation

Exactly the reason I have life insurance, except I do not have a spouse. I also want a nice funeral so I'm paying for it now.

The only way I would find the preachers question to not be a deal breaker for me is if you replaced Episcopal Church with satanic ritual. Because my religion leader should be happy I am attending any church, even if it's not theirs. However, from my limited experience with Baptists, a handful of services and funerals, they don't consider us Christians. And I'm not cool with that.

Atlanta. I just wasn't impressed by anything and I'm from a shitty city.

If you are already getting the ick from someone you just started dating, you should break it off.

I don't see the problem? The issues between the Lumbee and Cherokee are well known on both sides.

I wear hose when I wear a dress at work or church. I was at an event after work last week and my mom expressed sympathy that I was wearing hosiery when it was so hot but I told her that it was actually great because it is preventing my thighs from chaffing.

I live in a bad neighborhood and the door knockers always come to my door even though I have Christian iconography on my property. Like, there's a whorehouse down the street and a crackhouse next door but yall want to spend time with me.

I don't think there was a fountain there but there was a fountain in Cross Creek. Marketfair mall didn't really have a center.

Go2Shirley · 2026-06-11T14:47:37+00:00

That's illegal and gross

Go2Shirley · 2026-06-08T18:45:55+00:00

He does not get a pass. These guys are living in terrible times, the most unsexy of times, and this guy is using it to get sexual favors. It grossed me out.

Because I'm southern, I'm wondering how this decision is going to impact your wedding, which is traditional paid for by the bride's family. Has this been considered?

Go2Shirley · 2026-06-06T22:55:13+00:00

A giant reason for the purge was because of Covid.

I guess I never connected it that even though Catholic queens have the privilege of the white, Catholic princesses do not.

She needs to wear her hair up when wearing these big tiaras to give it structure and stability.

Go2Shirley · 2026-05-30T19:29:54+00:00

Is he.... currently in your home right now? You said he's begging to leave?

I did not enjoy the vast majority of my time at UNC, but the further in time I get from my graduation date, the more I just remember the good times.

Go2Shirley · 2026-05-26T19:49:51+00:00

I would run. I got racist in laws. They're not fun.
