Hello Everyone:
I am new to this message board however I've been an Ivillage member for a long while. I thought I'd take a moment to introduce myself and hopefully make a few new friends. I am a 45 year old physically disabled black american lesbian woman. I was born without arms but I am independent by use of my feet. I can do anything you can do only difference is I use my feet. YES I am typing this message with my toes and a darn fast typer I am.(smile)
I am originally from NYC but I relocated to Va. two years ago. I was ready for a change in life style. Living here in Va. is quite different then life in NYC. A much slower and layed back pace but I truly enjoy and welcome the change.
The most difficult task for me is establishing new friendships. Va. has a gay/lesbian community however it seems as though the gay/lesbian population here in Va. are afraid to come out and live their lives. People here seem to be closeted, secretive on the down low when it comes to their sexuality.
Coming from NYC I am definetlly not used to hiding who I am or my sexuality. NO I don';t go around waving a flag or wearing a banner, but I am not ashamed to be a lesbian, because I have been attracted to the same sex all of my life.
About a year or so my previous lady companion ended our six year relationship. Getting back into the dating scene isn't an easy task these days especially here in Va. because the lesbian population seems hidden away. It makes it difficult for me to even establish new friendships let alone dating. (Smile)
So here I am on Ivillage trying to connect with new people and just make new friends. I hope I am welcome here and I do look forward to connecting with a few good people.
If you'd like to know more about me and what I do please feel free to take a look at my profile listed on Ivillage.
For now I wish all of you happiness and peace and I look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards
Noahe2000 aka Susan (Smile)

Hello Halo:
I thank you for welcoming me to the board. I hope this message finds youy in good spirits this day. Yes I have heard of Bab es. A friend of mine went there a few times and she said that Babes seems to cater to a younger crowd ie; teens early 20's. I'm in my mid 40's and would hope to find a nice club for older adults.
I am in Richmond Va. I'm about 10 minutes away from the city of Richmond.
Once again I thank you for welcoming me to the board and I wish you a great day.
