Hi Everybody! I am new!
Hey, I linked over here from Jaaaman's political message board. My name, for all intensive purposes, is Dylan, and I am a genderqueer, Jewish, agnostic, bisexual A student who loves politics, rock 'n roll, poetry and cartoons. I was born in Canada, but I'm going to become an American very soon, and I have been living in America since I was seven years old. I am a civil libertarian, but I'm trying to figure out where I stand on economic policies. I am rather involved with the Democratic Party. I have worked as an intern for Senator Schumer, and I currently work for Congressman Brian Higgins. Howdy, I suppose.

Welcome Dylan it's great to have you on board. I hope you actively participate, because I'd love to here your views and perspectives on things. I am one of the site moderators, and also one of our moderates... LOL. I am most closely a libertarian, although I consider myself and independant. I am a Social Liberal and an Economic Conservative. Please take the time to peruse some of our on going discussions and let us know what you think.
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.

Hey Dylan, its always great to have new input.

Welcome!

Anyways, I am a conservative on most issues, I do not support President Bush nor did I support any president I was born into lol. It is great to have someone like yourself on this board, so you know I am pro-gay marriage. Oh, yes, did you say you were a man or a woman?

Anyways, welcome to this site.
Godbless, Tadpole.

I'm neither, or both. I don't believe in binary gender. Here's some info about what genderqueer means.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genderqueer

I think gender and sexuality are both spectrums that have nothing do do with what body parts someone happens to have.

I find gender neutral pronouns sort of weird, so if people don't use them, it's cool. I myself rarely use them. Just use whatever pronoun you feel comfortable with using for me.

Also, I consider myself bisexual, although pansexual would probably be a more accurate term. I just find the word 'pansexual' kind of weird, once again. It makes it sound like I am attracted to kitchenware or something.

Well, that is the first time I have ever heard of genderqueer before. I just figured it ment you were gay. Either way, welcome to the boards.

Personally, I'm more attracted to people, but whatever floats your boat I suppose.

Hey Jaaaman!

Glad to have you on the board. I'm a liberal who believes in personal freedoms. I went to school for audio engineering because I love music and anything creative really.
--- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope ---

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
