Greetings ALL
Well I got lots of great feedback about discussing some of the day to day issues we face as lesbians so I am looking forward to this weekly thread.
And, since we had

We just do not feel comfortable holding hands walking through the Mall etc. You never know what kind of nut you will run into.

Bravo for the owner too! :-)
I like your approach.
Nice and easy.
I always thought kids in our lives don't get enough input on how to behaved as much as they should since their lives are affected as well.
Don't worry about a novel. Yours have a beginning, middle and an ending! A very good novel to read. *grin* I on the other hand goes meandering along...*L*
Just putting my nose in where it doesn't belong. *grin*
Just a question, if you feel such sadness in this town, are you sure you want to work in it till you retired? I don't know how old you are but I can't imagine working in a place that will not make you happy for a long time. Is it possible to work for another school district that will make you more comfortable instead of the other way around? Like you said, your ability as a school teacher isn't based on your sexuality so there must be other places looking for a good teacher.
"Tonsil-hockey"...LOL...Love that!
Oh, believe me, I am looking for a teaching job in

Wow what a turnout on the first question!!
Cindy and I always hold hands and show PDA's around family and friends, but when it comes to Cindy's job, she keeps it under wraps. Where she works, it would be very bad for her if she was "out". I mean, some of her co-workers probably suspect that she's gay, but never ask her. I know that a couple of people that she works with knows that she's gay and one of them doesn't mind. The other says that she doesn't mind, but spread it all over the department that she used to work in and she got a lot of flack from it. Now that she's in a different area where she works, she doesn't want the same thing to happen.
She really likes to job too much to risk coming out at work. I work at Wal-Mart and there are several gay people that work there. Some are totally out and some aren't. I am kind of in between right now cause I've only been there for 10 months. Some girls know that I am gay, some suspect and some doesn't know. If they were to come up to me and ask, I would tell them, but I don't offer any information. People are pretty easy going where I work, and even the managers are pretty ok with the gay community there.
Being out in the public, we sometimes just rub against each other occasionally. When we go out to restaurants, people would be stupid not to know that we are gay the way Cindy and I look at each other. But the only PDA's outside of family and friends is mainly just holding hands in the car or an occasional brush up.
I wish that things were different though cause I would love to be totally out no matter where we go. I am just afraid.
Hugs
Annie
