Violence Against the LGBT Community

[Nirokun!]

Nono, not by any means Niro - just saying...one shouldn't assume from a single photo that you are the passable-est woman ever (not that you are making that claim by any means).

And yeah you actually remind me a bit of a half-asian girl I dated for a while.

Then I should make it clear. I am not the most passable woman. I am too big and my features are too hard. And I have big feet. etcetcetcetc

[BaneTheBrawler]

None of which are particularly unusual, tbh. Most women have at least a few features that are more masculine than is generally considered normal. This is one of those things where knowing affects what you see. If you look at a woman and look for signs she may have at some point been a man, you'll probably find a few. If you look at a woman as a woman, you won't notice it. Unless it's super obvious, like a mustache or something.

[Nirokun!]

That's true. Then, we should say that the important part is not whether or not she's identifiably trans, it's whether or not it matters. And it almost always does, but I guess that's obvious, too.

I need to make appointments for home visits. Such a procrastinator.

[Blubbartron]

Even completely normal (DNA-wise) women have mustaches from time to time.

[Alvinho]

I met this chick once whose shoulders were broader than mine; turned out she was a swimmer.

Tell me about it. Went to the mall last weekend and this girl, had to be no older than 17, had a full-blown mustache. Creeped me the fuck out. Of course, I do live in Portland, so it's part of living here.

Oh Portland. Capital of Hipsters and Freaks.

[Churchill]

portland is pamazing for ladyfolks and great brunches and beer.

in fact, it's amazingamazing.

[Kuishen]

Dunno about ladies but yeah they have some fucking awesome food. While you eat you get to people watch in one of the best cities to do it in too so it's all good.

[Xno Kappa]

Isn't Portland one of those cities on the cusp of being completely destroyed by something something whatever? Sounds bad ass to live at but not sure cuz of that.

[Churchill]

The entire Pacific NW is pretty due for both an earthquake and volcanic eruption, potentially both at the same time.

If you like beer and haven't been to WA/OR you are really missing out. Vancouver is also nearby (if you live in SEA-TAC) and again, great wimmen.

[Kuishen]

Yeah if Mt. Rainier decided to blow it would take out all of Tacoma and probably Seattle, they speculate that when it does go it will be the most violent eruption in history or something like that. Portland's immediate threat is... Mt. Hood? Would also probably be pretty bad.

I live an hour north of Portland right where the Columbia river curves to the west so my area would be hit with flooding if that ever happened. As it is St. Helens was acting up again for a little while, couple of times we had a smoke cloud pouring out of it and that dome continues to grow so that could erupt again too.

I don't even know what this thread is about anymore.

well if a volcano erupts near a major city, a lot of LGBT people would die and that would be a tragedy

[Acevalefor]

Kuishen, you live near Longview? I am finding more and more people on these boards that are around the Portland area. It's all true too. You have to visit Portland in the summer time for some great beer (McMenamin's Kennedy School is a great place to start.) People watching is fun that time of year too. Right before the Rose Festival starts, the gay pride events roll out. It's probably the single most entertaining time in Portland. You get to see lots pf pretty people with little or no inhibitions.

So what were we talking about anyways? This thread totally got derailed and I have no clue how this relates to violence except for a hypothetical violent volcanic eruption killing lots of people.

[Byrthnoth]

It was originally about a woman in Nebraska who was mutilated/etc. in her house for being a lesbian. They still don't have anyone in custody or leads. Some people think it was a hoax, but I prefer to remain optimistic that she ain't crazy.

[Churchill]

I'm a big fan of Mac&Jacks myself. I don't really think DeSchutes is that great but a lot of people like it. I'm not a big fan of IPA's, but I also don't mind them when done right.

Yeah I live in Kelso, the sister city to Longview.

[Acevalefor]

Yeah I live in Kelso, the sister city to Longview.

Cool. I drive out there about once a month to pick up cardboard from Longview Fiber. It's a nice trip when I get paid $.50/mile.
