sorry. I'm in that kind of mood today. It's going to be the type-intermittently-record-whatever's-coming-out-of-nicole's-mouth kind of blog. Notice that I'm unapologetic!
Today I had a bio lesson, and did some time at the library, which was productive. I also found a bunch of Queer Studies literature, and it is so fascinating. Answers all my questions, really. The queer reference books are right next to the women's studies books, so I'll probably be spending a lot of time there. xD
I just prefer getting my questions answered in a more social science/ anthropology way, rather than an anecdotal way, because it's a culmination of past research. Also there are so many more perspectives, and professional ones to boot, about lgbt issues in the region. It's so interesting, finding out about what lgbt attitudes are like in asia, such as in India, Canada, and Taiwan, and comparing their perspectives with the ones I encounter. Asian perspectives are ones that I can relate to more, because they are more similar culturally. It's just refreshing to see something different from most narratives I've encountered on the internet, which mostly originate from North America/ UK.
The marriage books are shelved right under the queer books, by the way. xD So I'll probably be more able to synthesize my opinions after I've read them, and I'll be less vague and doubtful.
That's it for today.
Keep each other safe, and keep faith.
