The political trananigans I've discovered in Utah are vast and abundant. Just the other night, for example, I attended a trans-specific lobbyist training that was presented by Equality Utah and we had another transtacular activist meeting. Go red state go! I decided to go to this training since, well, the prospect of lobbying has always been an intimidating one to me. Not just because it sounds very foreign and daunting, but, on another level, I’ve worried that my presence would do more damage to a cause I care about than aid it just due to being gender variant and having a more non-LDS-looking appearance. Even if I spruced up, I’d worried that an LDS (Latter-day Saints/Mormon) representative, for example, wouldn’t be able to relate to me in any way, shape, or form and could even be afraid of me. I feared that it would be an entirely ineffective – even potentially damaging – experience. I’ve been feeling differently about this lately, though. On one level, being out has boos...
The way you move your eyebrows while talking is very cute. Sorry for the superficial comment and harmless Internet flirting lol :)
ReplyDeleteIt's not harmless one bit! It's incredibly flattering and ego-boosting! How dare you!
Deletelol :) Did you do that eyebrow thing as you typed that comment? I bet you did...
ReplyDeleteflirt!
Oh, geez. I had no idea I even did an "eyebrow thing" until you pointed it out!
