As usual, we start with last month's Snarl about bisexuality--
^^^ "I think that there is tremendous pressure for not only teen but all of us to do what is expected by society. More specifically here in the US I find people to be more on the conservative side and not as accepting as Europeans towards gay and bi people. Everybody is a human being no matter what their sexual persuasion and you shouldn't judge according to a persons sexuality! I have a friend back home in S.Africa who lives by this motto "If you're not bi-sexual, you're "bi" yourself!""
^^^ "i have a friend who is outwardly bi sexual and sometimes i question my own orinentation. i live in a very small community where being different in any way, shape, or form is very wrong. i'm a manson freak so popular opinion dosen't really bother me. if people don't like me then can fuck off :)"
^^^ "Last spring, I went to the prom with my gay friend. We were friends since Freshmen year. When he told me he was gay it didn't change how I felt being around him at all. I didn't care what anyone thought about he and I being friends. But some shallow people are very influenced by peer opinions. If they won't be anyone's friend just becuase they are different, someday they'll realize that they have no real friends left."^^^ From November's issue:
^^^ "This e-zine is the BEST. It has everything an independent, liberal grrl ever wanted. You go, NrrdGrrls! "
^^^ "I really enjoyed your web site. Just great. I'll have to come up with something to write! Keep it up! grrrrrrr"
^^^ "I think Grrowl is great, I've read about every issue!"
^^^ "Awesome e-zine, really. I totally agree with everything said in it. I respect the courageous people you feature in your e-zine."
^^^ "i thoroughly enjoyed joy locke's "manifesto." i feel that young people need to realize that by dividing ourselves into groups and labelling others for our convenience, we give up our free will. through division we destroy ourselves and allow authority to control us. we should find some common cause to unite behind and force them to let go of our future. i believe the people are strong enough to lead themselves."
^^^ "Great job! The design really works--simple, interesting, good-looking and quick. And the content was relevant and real. i'll definitely be back..."
^^^ "*sigh* ok so I am not a NerdGrrl, not even a female, but Still I post. This zine is a Great thing, really. Dont know how much it counts for but Bravo. Well got to get back out into the web where I can be/not be me for a while longer. Be Bold, Be Brav e- but hey you are already doing that."
