Boy Scouts

       The Boy Scouts have finally voted on allowing gay students join troops.  They still don't allow gay troop leaders though.
       I know before the vote a number of Eagle Scout members would mail in their badges, protesting the ban on gay teens.  I also remember reading that Girl Scouts accepted gay teens if they were refused from joining Boy Scouts.  However I know Boy Scouts is a lot better at keeping members than Girl Scouts is.  I always wished my Girl Scout troop had been more involved besides selling cookies.  I hope someday that the Boy Scouts will allow gay troop leaders.

Attraction Guidelines

Personal Guidelines of what I am attracted to in a woman:

(Not in any order)

• Is bi-sexual or lesbian.  Sometimes this fails unfortunately, I have recently developed a crush on a woman who is clearly straight, but then again I main know straight engineers.
• Don't fall for friends I've known for over a year and a half, unless they show a serious interest and effort in a more intimate relationship.
• Likes the outdoors, hiking, gardening, etc.
• Enjoys food, either cooking or eating or both
• Listens to a wide variety of music
• Able to go for a few days or a week without constant communication.  This may seem like a weird rule, but I'll explain.  I am a very independent person, I understand that other people have their friends and I have mine, I also get irritated if I am around one person for extended periods of time.
• We can talk about anything, but we don't have to know everything about one another
• They know how to press my buttons.  Most of the time I only let people get to my core emotions or secrets when they only ask certain questions or make me angry.
• Spontaneity exists, yet is not there all the time
• Someone who enjoys learning, understands some science, is passionate about their field.
• Has some curves, I've never understood how extremely skinny people are attractive, sorry but I don't
• Able to make fun of one another, this is a must. I always bicker with people I am comfortable around
• No pigtails, I hate pigtails; any other hairstyle is fine

That's about all I can think about for now, this one may be updated in the future.

A Number of Things

1.)  Minnesota legalized gay marriage!!! And only after a few months after the attempted vote to ban it!

2.)  I am sure most of you have heard of the private Catholic school administration firing one of their teachers after finding out she was a lesbian.  Here's a link to more info:   http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/29/carla-hale-update-gay-teacher-fights_n_3179138.html

3.)  I came to the realization during the last day of one of my thermodynamics class that I have developed a crush on a member of my study group, too bad she's in a relationship.

4.)  One of my best friends came out to me last week.  It's great knowing that someone in my group understands, yet it makes me feel a bit awful because I haven't said anything to them about my own sexuality.

Hope your summer is starting off fantastically, try to relax a bit!
