Sexuality Happens

On 16th Street in Denver last year for New Year

Last year…I found myself wandering alone on 16th street in Downtown Denver until I ran into some friends of my Ex (F) and F’s sister…and this guy I’d had a crush on back when I was 13 and in HS.

I made out with him on New Years. He was the best kisser of any of the cisgender guys I’ve kissed (a LOT and 98% of them were horrible kissers), and he was fun.

I actually got a bit of a crush on him…until I found out he has NO interested in me…not because of my personality or looks. But because I was queer, or in his eyes, a lesbian. He told a mutual friend that he’d “never” consider having sex or dating a lesbian, or even a bisexual woman. Why? Because it was hard enough competing with other men…why would he want to compete with women as well?

Yeah. Total douche hat. I hate that dumb statement.  Lesbians often say the same thing about dating/fucking bisexual women. It is  just as bigoted there.

Luckily, I found the right person for me. She doesn’t care who I find attractive, as long as I make kitty and dino noises, and we fuck each other senseless. I have no idea what we’re going to do this year, and what life has in store for us, but there isn’t anyone else I’d rather have by my side.

Happy New Year to one and all!
