Can we have an introductory thread??

On almost all forums I have ever been on there is just one thread where everyone just pops in and says hello, states a few things about themselves, and gets to know others just a little bit. Then if one finds something interesting about another they can message each other outside the thread to get to know each other a little more. I don't see a thread like that anywhere on here, if I'm missing it just send me in the right direction.

A little about me: Bisexual, single, my children are my 4 pets (1 dog, 1 cat, 2 guinea pigs), graduate student at the University of Oklahoma (home of the Sooners (although I'm not a fan), traveled all over the world, and hope to continue to travel, and work internationally, 28 years old (will be 29 in May), favorite L Word Character is Shane (just love her confidence, mysteriousness, and honesty), pretty much an open book so if anyone has questions feel free to send a message or friend request. I'm online constantly. The majority of my friends and family are online, and I do a lot of work with a non-profit organization online as well.

So anyone like to state a little about themselves, and we can all start to get to know a little bit more about each other especially those of us who are new to the forum?

Well, Im berretta bomb...I

Well, Im berretta bomb...I live in cali. Ive always been out due to the fact that my mother is a lesbian, so i never had to hide that i am a pansexual. In case you dont know what a pansexual is, it means gender means nothing to me...i love people for who they are...And yeah Im a punk. Ill be a punk till i die. I want to be a hairdresser cuz thats what im actually good at. Right now i have pink hair but that will change from week to week. Um i make alot of my own clothes...yeah...get to know me.
I live life for this second...

Ciao...

Hi everybody. I'm new in ourchart... I'm Laura, from Switzerland, 25 years old... I'm nurse and working in the E.R.
I'm co-working with a gay and lesbian association in my country, to try to help people in this little country to come out and don't be afraid to be whoever they are...
I came out to my family last year and... after I did it I told to myself "geez, why didn't I do it before?" I had some problems with my father, 'cause he's kind of old-style man, afraid to everything new and soooo afraid of what could happen to me being gay (like discriminating, losing my job and so on...)
I uderstand his feelings, but I also know that after coming-out I'm stronger and be kind of untouchable about my homosexuality...
Well, I'm here 'cause I love to meet new people, I'm curious about almost everything, I love to know how is to live in other countries, to fight for human rights, to be part of the world...
Ok, I think that's it...

I think it's great what you

I think it's great what you do. In my country it is extremely risky to say your gay. My government speaks openly against gay people. But I think that no matter who you are you should be yourself and speak for yourself. Be brave. Live your life as you wish.

Aerith Gainsborough

Hello! I'm new to the community as well. Last year I graduated from the University of Virginia, and I'm taking some time off before going to graduate school for Art History. I'm currently living in the beautiful, hilly country of Virginia, drink and laughing and smoking with the best friends I could ever ask for. I've gone through a tumultuous time these last few months, but I'm really starting to like who I'm becoming.

I hope to meet even more friends here!

Another Newbie who has been lurking...

Hello everyone!

I have to admit that I had found this site a while ago but life sntached me up and I completely forgot I had signed on with this site. Yes, I was having a moment....a long one at that...lol...I am 35 and am married to my partner of 2 years. I/we have 3 children, 4 cats, 4 birds and one betta fish. I won't bore you with all their names :)
I am a manager in Loss Prevention in charge of a retail store. I love my job as it keeps me on my toes but sometimes it can be "glorifed babysitting". I also have a great love of photography and hope that one day I can open my own studio.
Besides spending time with my family I love reading, watching movies, exploring new parts of the area I live in and going dancing.
I welcome any questions and I look forward to getting to know people here.

Just droppin' in to...

Welcome da newbies.

Welcome! :D

I'm grim. Nice tah meet ya. xoxo

Imma sexy potato.

Okay little bit about me.....

I am 30 years old I live in northern Mississippi and was born in Wisconsin. I am currently dating my boyfriend of 3 and a half years and we have an understanding he loves me and wants me to be happy so I have seperate relationships with women. If your confused he works and is gone three weeks a month and comes home for 4 to 5 days and then is gone again. So he approves if I do that I am not into the threesome thing been there done that and it bored me. What I am looking for is having a really deep connection with a woman wether it's the bond of friendship or a relationship. I definetly wear my heart on my sleeve and am a romantic type and my fav. L word character was Carmen but since she is gone it's Shane. I am also an artist that is what I do I draw, paint,glass etch and all that good stuff lol it's what makes me think the female form is so very beautiful. I am semi girlie but mainly spend my time drawing or going fishing or working with my neighbors horses. I am pretty much what u see is what you get but anyway message me here or add me to yahoo messenger my id is tigerlily7830 and if u have myspace my page is www.myspace.com/jeansfuckedupbrain so send me a message and get to know me better.

Just another newbie ;)

A quick overview:

My name is Katie I am 22 years old. I live in Colorado but hopefully not for long! I just recently came out and looking for people to talk with.

I am a sixty year old very femmy lesbian from Chicago. I am a memeber of a few lesbian websites, but I am new here. I have a gf and I am now retired.Hate is overtaking the planet, please promote love. Down with hate.

I have been here since the ship first sailed.......

I have blogged and posted here on various forums and just found this little nugget. Imagine that. A place to introduce oneself. Hi there to all.

Who am I? At this time, I am the writer and creator of an online Web Serial called www.labinkypark.com It is read by some of the gals here on OC.....and I appreciate them so very much. They have provided a support base for this newbie writer and been faithful in stopping in to check out the latest chapter.

I have a small dog, two cats, a cockatiel, various fish, three turtles and two recently hatched ducklings now habitat with us. Us (meaning me and my partner River) who also posts here and there among the forums.

It is nice to know that this exists...even for us oldtimers....lol.

Peace

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a ride!!! Next!!!!!
