Hi @lottaotter - As a casual runner myself, I’d regard a 5k run as a beginner’s, or a casual run. If these runs are being announced publicly, then...
Great question! And helpful replies. My take on it is that “sex” is something we do, and “gender” is who we are. I hope anyone who talks with me...
That’s it! that’s what I felt, but only that one time, not before, not since. Have you felt it more than once?
That’s a really interesting thought—could it be so simple? There was definitely something between that guy in college and me, maybe only that we...
Reading through this thread I remembered being in a college class and looking around the room during the lecture. I locked eyes with a guy and we...
Hi @hopefulB - I can sure see how you could have been exposed to that idea, but I never got that programming. I do remember as an adolescent...
Hi @razorsharp - I’m thinking of you today because as even much as I feel my same-sex attractions, it’s unthinkable for me to cause my wife the...
Hi @silverhalo - Since I’m trying to make my (hetero) marriage work but we’re having problems, I’m celebate for now. My thoughts and fantasies...

Yes! The most authentic and satisfying conversations I’ve ever had have been when everyone in the conversation has been able to be open and honest...
@Peterpangirl , I love your suggestion! On a whim, I called a woman who I was out to about 30 years ago (I kinda forgot about that). It was just a...
Hi @bsg75apollo - I’m sorry your having a rough day. I’m glad to see your sense of humor is present - I got a good laugh from your “thinking...
