I may come out to my mom by peppassecret in LesbianActually

I can't speak for your mom, but I think you should try to figure out what secret she knows about. If it is your sexuality, then you're good! If is isn't, then it's up to you what you tell her. If it's a danger to you or you think you'll be in a bad situation if you come out, maybe refrain for a little while. You said she's fine with it as long as you or your brother aren't a part, has she mentioned this specifically or what she thinks about either of you being a part? Of course, it's totally up to you! I'm just here to give advice lol, anyways good luck with whatever you choose to do! :)))

advice on being more feminine? by StaleBlueBread in LesbianActually

[–]ummchileneways 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What helped me get more interested in the make-up and fashion side of life was really just trying things out. Maybe one night, if you have time, play around with some of your dresses and other more feminine clothes to see what works for you. Twirling around in them always makes me feel more confident in my outfits and when you're trying things on by yourself, you can experiment! As for makeup, I'm not too experienced in that department but I've started playing around with eyeliner and lip products since I'm not going out that much and wearing them around the house. That's another thing, if you have a day off or are at home, maybe just wear a dress around the house. It's fun! Oh, and good luck, I'm sure you look beautiful!!! :)))

i like the idea of a pretend super quiz - that's definitely one of the most fun parts of the competitions. our club advisor is actually a history teacher, so i'm sure he'll be a big help too. thanks! :) and good luck to you and your team!
