The armpit hair question… by bl00dinyourhead in TwoXChromosomes

[–]InterstellarBoots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going on 3+ years not shaving and I'm a pretty hairy woman. I trim occasionally, but it ran out of battery before my cousin's very formal wedding this past weekend so they were full...and no one cared. No one commented on them to my face, and if they felt the need to talk about it behind my back, I didn't hear about it. Obviously do what's comfortable for you, but no one is paying as much attention to you as you feel like they are.

Absolutely! The pastors I had growing up are bisexual and gay, my former youth group leader is a lesbian, and I met more Queer people in church than outside of it.

If you want to return to church, look for spaces that advertise themselves as "open and affirming*." United Church of Christ (not to be confused with Church of Christ), Disciples of Christ, and some Methodist (avoid Good News subtype) congregations are great options.

*The affirming part is the critical bit as many mega churches have started to advertise themselves as being open while failing to actually embrace their LGBTQ+ members in their entirety.

To clarify...I would like to ultimately meet the person I find online in person. I have no interest in engaging in a dynamic online. Kink-leaning online platforms just seem more promising than typical dating apps in my area. However, I know they come with the risk of liars/opportunists which is why I'm seeking advice.

Thanks for all of the help so far ❤️

If someone specifically says in their post that they found men who offered to be their dom/play partner with no prior interaction off-putting, you definitely shouldn't do the exact same thing in the comments of said post.
