| 1 | There are so many gradations of gray on just about every issue I can think of. To present things in paradoxes seems to separate people from each other - to opposing ends of the spectrum. Rather than look at our differences on issues, wouldn't it be nice if we rejoiced in some of our similarities as Beings, thus bridging the gap on issues like abortion, capital punishment, age-ism, ability-ism, racism, heterosexism, etc. | How do you feel about controversial issues being limited to two positions? |
| 2 | I find this question to be based on a heterosexist perspective, and I am mildly offended, however recognizing that so much of the world seems to come from this bent. My real answer is: I am about to have a civil union up here in the hills of Vermont - a.k.a. defined as "separate but equal" to married. | What is your marital status? |
| 3 | As a lesbian, I live with my SO in monogamous relationship and we will engage in a union soon. Shouldn't all marriages be defined as "civil unions"? | Do you have a live-in significant other (unmarried)? |
| 4 | Our bedroom is a warm & luscious tone of pink for the Goddesses (plural) that inhabit the place. | What color(s) are your bedroom walls? |
| 5 | Strong preference and necessity nails be kept very short. I manicure them, pick them and have been known to bite them. They never look dirty (in social spheres) unless I have paint (not polish but artistic and household), on them or maybe marker, vehicle grease, glue, chalk. I ONLY nibble, never bite them (that's saved for Diva) unless they are not only clean, but especially if I have not thoroughly DISINFECTED in, under and around the nail and hand area before gnawing them off with my jagged teeth in a moment of utter frustration! Otherwise, I relish the moments soaking them with warm oil on the nail beds, herbal potions on skin and hand area (while giving a back rub to another or myself). As for my cuticles... I take the cuticle between my front two teeth and have a go at 'em...I definitely think nails tell about a person. That's why I'm trying to stop nibbling and polishing them. | Fingernails... |
| 6 | One part of maturity is using healthy coping tools to understand your own experiences and others. Maturity is understanding that none of us in the world are perfect, that emotions can be powerful, but so can thoughts, and that a larger entity exists beyond our flesh and bone. | Maturity |
| 7 | Meditation. It works anywhere, anytime, any place. | When at work or school, what is your favorite stress-reduction technique? |
