Yeah, my stomach didn't like remembering it, either. I remember that night, I was so terrified about going back down because I'm so bad at heights, but played tough so you'd feel better about going down it.

Baltimore was one of the best parts of this trip. I'm glad we got to return to it and see it on our own terms. One of those kids we hate? You mean one of the two kids we hate who claimed to hate Baltimore when we picked them up from there? Oh, well. Scumbags are everywhere. BUT, there are also non-scumbags everywhere.

Qule fotos.

I don't like climbing wobbly things that
go high either.

It isn't the falling I am afraid of, it is the
PAIN of hitting the ground I hate.

I guess according to my Grandma who is
an artist, I am an artist, but not the same
as most of those who are called, or think
of themselfes as artists.

I just like to draw and colour and sometimes
paint. I like drawing on the pavement with
my chalks and oil painting and crawyon
drawing and finger painting and even
painting with stuff like mud and limestone
rocks. I like to take wet sand at the beach
and let it drip thru my fingers or a funnel
and make sand poopies.

Most fears are irrational; a fear of heights is, for the most part, one of them. So when I'm in a situation involving heights, I try to focus on the fact that I trust my body to do the right thing during an emergency.

You should post some of your art.

i'm interested in why you think that rape is a "genderless" issue.

Because rape is an atrocity committed on all sorts of people; it isn't exclusive to just one gender. Perpetrator and victim can be either male or female. Too often does it seem to be narrowed down as a female issue.

That night, several pieces and stories revolved around a 'male vs. female' dynamic. The only saving grace was a speaking piece about a male on male rape scene.

I think the subject of rape is unfortunately yet another thing to be attacked by the reverse-sexism feminists out there in the punk scene.

Reverse-sexism feminists? Oh, please. Wait, you're the one that thinks that male privilege doesn't exist, right?

'Oh, please' yourself. I've been seeing it, alongside reverse-racism, everywhere I go lately. And the rhetoric you're spouting here is word-for-word exactly what they all say. It leads me to question if anyone out there who claims to have a mind of their own actually does.

To suggest or imply that one gender's plight is more serious or more important than another's is sexist; the same way suggesting or implying one race or ethnicity's plight is more serious or more important than another's is racist. The more political branches of the punk scene are taking the more 'common' social prejudices and over-compensating for them by reversing the same prejudice towards anyone who is white, heterosexual, or male. It's fucked-up and doesn't solve any social issues at all; it just alienates and confuses people who go to the punk scene in hopes of finding a safe place, as well as distracts from the real social issues at hand.

Feminism as a movement isn't exclusive to a certain gender, as it's supposed to be fighting for equal treatment and ( ... )

You made some nice points there. I did a search on the subject matter and found mainly people will consent with your blog.

Thanks? I'm not sure what you mean in the second sentence, though.
