isms
Edited on Sat Oct-04-08 06:12 PM by Rising Phoenix
I am reading a book called Full Frontal Feminism by Jessica Valentini......and I wonder how much the "isms" I am attached to effect how people perceive me. Following is a list of possible isms in my life and I wonder......do they make you like me more or less.....do you have preconceived notions of me upon hearing them.......granted this is a democratic forum, I know that, well, hope that in this environment I would not have these parts of me held against me, but I am curiouos.....
female
over thirty and unmarried
bisexual
have been in a polyamourous relationship
in a inter racial relationship
mentally ill
on disability
tattooed
artist
live with my mother
poor
former sex industry worker
feminist
pro porn
pro choice
democrat
white
survivor
do you think of me any different now?


please note this is not an attention grabbing post......I am curious how all of these parts of me make people percieve me.

update....free republic would not post this
