mutedtempestBecause I'm bored and still kinda out of it, I moved this extremely gay survey from Myspace because I hearts my Cassie-friend.
And she's gay. Which I already knew, because even in high school my gaydar was extraordinarily accurate. :P
1. How old were you when you first came “out”?
I never really did. I didn't make a big deal about it and announce it, but if anybody asked, I didn't hide it. My dad and stepmom found out when I was 15 though.
2. How old were you when you had your first GF?
Hmmm...tough to say. Nothing "official" until I was a sophomore in high school though.
3. Do you consider yourself butch or femme?
Neither? Both? I lean to one side or the other sometimes, but for the most part I'm right in the middle.
4. Do you have short, medium, or long hair?
I had it really long for the past few years, but I got tired of its Jew-fro-frizzy-ness so I recently cut it. it's now short, spikey and quite dyke-ish.
5. Do you wear make-up?
I always wear lip gloss because my lips are chapped to hell and back. When I feel like it, I wear eyeliner too sometimes. Aside from that, nah. I never really agreed with the concept of putting a mask on to go out in public.
6. Do you wear men’s or women’s clothes?
I stick to t-shirts, hoodies and cargo pants the great majority of the time...so both? I do have some floral blouses and some men's dress shirts, but I never really wear either. I have absolutely no fashion sense if that's not already obvious.
7. Do you wear cologne or perfume?
I'm in love with Diesel Green, and that's unisex. Lately I've just been using my Irish Spring body wash though because i think it smells better on me than most perfumes/colognes.
8. Do you carry a wallet or purse?
Nothing, I shove everything in my pockets. (I agree with Cassie...and I lurve my cargo pants). I do have a messenger bag when I need to carry a lot of crap though.
9. Do you own any clothing that’s pink?
Yep. Two shirts, and I actually really like both of them. Which is weird since I usually hate that color. Oh well.
10. Do you carry a pocket knife?
I used to...I wonder what happened to it. It was a Swiss Army knife though and I never used the actual knife part, lol. I should get another one, it was really useful.And sometimes you just need some damn scissors.
11. Do you know how to cook?
I'm actually pretty damn good at it. I just haven't lately. It's kinda tough and pointless when you don't have a stove/oven that works, and you live by yourself. I'm awesome at the wok/skillet though.
12. Do you like flowers?
Love them. I adore plants and things that grow. I'm planning to train and get a diploma in floral design just for the hell of it.
13. Do you enjoy shopping?
when I have money. Who doesn't like spending money on stuff they want? I'm not huge on clothes shopping, but set me loose in a bookstore and watch me try to carry about a thousand pounds of stuff up to the register.
14. Do you wear a swimming suit, or trunks and a t-shirt?
I do not swim. I love the water, but I refuse to swim. If I did, suit covered by a big t-shirt because I'm a fatty mcfatterson.
15. Do you enjoy watching romantic love stories?
Yes, every now and then, because I am a big sappy hopeless romantic.
16. Has anyone mistaken you for a man?
Pffft....when I was in school I used to get beaten up by boys calling me a boy. As an adult, no. I'm fat and my boobs are way too big. I could pass for either if not for that though.
17. Are/were you a drag king?
No, not in the sense that I think the question is implying. I used to wear suits with ties on a pretty regular basis, but they were just comfortable to me.
18. so, what is your name?
Heather. I'm also known as Muted, MT, and my Russian friend calls me Muty, which I think is immensely adorable.
19. Have you ever considered transitioning to male?
No. I don't think that would be any more right/wrong to me than the body I'm already in, so why would I bother?
20. Are you into sports?
Not like, obsessively, but I like watching Notre Dame football and Cardinals baseball.
21. Do you hunt or fish?
I like to fish, although I never do anymore. I'm way too much of a wuss to enjoy hunting, I always feel sad for the animals.
22. Who’s your favorite well-known lesbian?
Um...I don't think I have one.
23. Who’s your favorite lesbian singer?
bleh, i hate these questions. If I like someone's music, I don't like it because the musician happens to be gay, but because I actually like the music itself. Same principle with actors/actresses, etc. That kinda thing just doesn't make a difference to me, and I think the work should speak for itself.
24. What’s your favorite lesbian movie?
Lesbian movies usually depress me, and they tend to be overly cliche. Girl Play was pretty amusing though.
25. Do you ever wear a hat?
when it's winter and my ears are numb, yes. Frostbite is not your friend.
26. Do you consider yourself a “giver” or a “taker”?
It's always better to give than to receive...although both have their place. Oh wait, is this about sex? Well...still applies.
27. Do you own any high heels?
I'd have two broken ankles if I did. It's hard enough for me to walk without falling in skate shoes and Converse. Grace and balance eluded me at birth.
28. How about a dress or a skirt?
I think I have my prom dress in my closet. And a skirt from my skinny days.
29. What about a tux?
Nope.
30. Do you own anything with rainbows on it?
Actually no, although I did see a really cute hoodie with rainbows on it at the mall the other day. It was only $7 too...might have to snag it.
31. How often do you go to gay clubs?
I'm not a big "club" person, too much going on and they make me dizzy and kinda panicky. I used to go to Fusion with my gayboy bff, though. And I was at a gay club called Flamingo's at L3, which was fun. Maybe I should try and go every now and then.
32. Ever hit on a stranger not knowing her sexuality?
No; I have ridiculously accurate gaydar. Aside from that, i never usually hit on people unless I'm being sarcastic. I'm too afraid of rejection.
33. Ever bound your chest to make it look flat/more male?
Used to every now and then, but it was just because the shirt definitely would have looked wrong with boobies, not because I wanted to look like a guy.
34. Do you have your tongue pierced?
No way.
35. So who is your main celebrity crush right now?
I don't have celebrity crushes. There are famous people that I think are really attractive, but I don't know them anywhere near well enough to have a crush on them.
36. Who’s your favorite character off the L word?
I refuse to answer, because the question makes me sad. Also, Cassie...get your ass over here, and we'll watch all five seasons. And you will love it and be addicted. I promise.
40. Do you have a high, medium, or low voice?
I dunno. I guess medium? Never really thought about it. I was a Soprano I in high school though.
41. Do you have any gay pride tattoos?
Not unless my shamrock on fire is gay. It IS flaming, so maybe. lol
42. Ever been to a gay pride parade?
No.. but soon!! Cassie, you and Ashley wanna go to Chicago Pride this June? Roadtrip?
43. Do you think homosexuals will ever marry?
well, a lot of them already do, it's just not legal in this country. if that's what the question pertains to...yes. It's just like anything else, society will eventually advance through its prejudice enough to let it happen. Probably not in my lifetime, but I think at some point in the future.
44. Do you think you were born gay, or was it a choice?
To me, love has nothing to do with choice.
45. Do you plan on giving birth to your own children?
If I could, I would...but I can't, so I won't. (wow...third grade flashbacks lol)
1. How old were you when you first came “out”?
I never really did. I didn't make a big deal about it and announce it, but if anybody asked, I didn't hide it. My dad and stepmom found out when I was 15 though.
