Another Reason There is Better Than Here or My Biggest Problem is that I Don't Have a Penis


Monday, April 19, 2004

Now, this is an amazing idea. I love it! It's a great idea, AND the website is really well laid out. I'm so impressed. I think it would be a very neat event to attend. Cheap camping and music and food! Being homeless has never looked so good!

Back here, there are a bunch of angry women downstairs talking about all the things their husbands do wrong. Why is it that almost every married woman (or common-law, even) I know takes up bitching about men as a hobby?? Is this just an inevitability? Do we all just grow into bitter, haggard, wrinkly old hags, devoid of any joy or passion in our lives? Agh!

I guess it's an occupational hazard of working in a women's center. I understand that marriages, relationships in general, are not always perfect, that if you are with someone for a long time, there will eventually be things that come up that will become annoying. It just seems like, more and more, there's this prevailing 'us versus them' mentality, that I don't find particularly palatable. I just don't think that that is a healthy attitude to have, especially in a women's center. Especially for a P.P. The motto on my business cards is "Sexualy Health for Everyone". But if you were a guy, would you want to set foot in a place where the gag "If they could put a man on the moon... why can't they put them all there?" is stuck on the fridge? Isn't that sending the wrong message?

Y'know, that's why I'm excited about this T'N'T ("Tough n' Talkin'") program. It's a sexual health program developed just for young guys. I think it's a great idea, but I know I'm going to have one bitch of a time trying to convince anyone to come (no pun intended, perverts). I know that if I were a guy here, I'd be called a faggot for even looking at this building, much less attending some camp there. My biggest problem is that I don't have a penis. Preferably, if you're going to do a camp for guys, it should be facilitated by another guy. They know how guys think. I so don't. Besides, having a woman facilitate just changes the dynamic. Would they be comfortable talking about masturbation with me? Doubt it.

So, I'm trying to focus my attention a bit more on the first ever SH Pride Day. That, I have a bit more control over. I'm thinking my best strategy is to go with a "Straight.... Not Narrow" campaign. It's entirely unintimidating, and everyone can participate. It's not like I want to round up all the gays and have a parade down Main Street. I just want people to know that they don't have to go all the way to Hali just to feel comfortable.

Anyway, I'm rambling. Maybe I should actually work on some of these projects rather than just blogging about them. Though, if y'all have any suggestions/comments about the above, make sure to leave a comment.
