      hmm. i could see myself living as an expatriate from the us. i don't know where yet, maybe i need to travel a little more, see my options. i love korea, but i definitely couldn't see myself here for more than a couple of years.

      plus there's still so much work that i want to do in the usa i don't know if i'd be ready to throw in the towel just yet- but in the long term, expat status is definitely feasible.

      that's so hard. I feel like I am always learning, reading, growing, shifting. I would say though, if I had to choose, I would pick "homegirls, a black feminist anthology" edited by barbara smith (who I love). or (I'm cheating, I know) Ain’t I a Woman?: Black Women and Feminism by bell hooks. I could literally read these two books over and over. and the still seem relevant, and poignant. and as a black, latina, queer, feminist, those two books just resonate so much.

      nope. just their current privilege and the way it manifests itself. and of course, i hate their legacy of slavery and colonization, in practically every brown nation in the world. i prefer not to be around them if i can help it. and lucky for me, most of the time, i can. other pocs...not so lucky. it's a choice. and really, considering that the number of people of color outnumber white folks in the world, it's getting easier to do. plus, there are so many different cultures/experiences of people of color. I think that with my american education, i have learned enough about white folks, white traditions, white history. time to explore some non-westernized, non-colonialized, non-white ideals.

      i live alone, so there won't be any people or pets to rescue. i'd have to say, my practical side says: my macbook (all my pictures and music are there), my entire bookshelf of books (yes, I'd have supernatural powers) and my purse. (I'd need my car keys). my impractical side says: my make-up (all that mac is expensive). my vibrators. and my computer. again.

      i don't think I've been to enough of them to say. I have a lot more traveling to do before I decide that for sure...but for now, I'd say it's a toss up between san juan, puerto rico and rome.

      queer. i don't buy gender/sex roles. or fit into a neat box. in many ways, i fall quite outside of societal norms about gender, and sexual ways of being. and well...what wikipedia said:

      "in contemporary usage, some use queer as an inclusive, unifying sociopolitical umbrella term for people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, transsexual, intersexual, genderqueer, or of any other non-heterosexual sexuality, sexual anatomy, or gender identity. It can also include asexual and autosexual people, as well as gender normative heterosexuals whose sexual orientations or activities place them outside the heterosexual-defined mainstream (e.g. BDSM practitioners, or polyamorous persons). Queer in this sense (depending on how broadly it is defined) is commonly used as a synonym for such terms as LGBT.

      Because of the context in which it was reclaimed, queer has sociopolitical connotations, and is often preferred by those who are activists, by those who strongly reject traditional gender identities, by those who reject distinct sexual identities such as gay, lesbian, bisexual, and straight, and by those who see themselves as oppressed by the heteronormativity of the larger culture. In this usage it retains the historical connotation of "outside the bounds of normal society" and can be construed as "breaking the rules for sex and gender."

      "is it ok if I just call you regular gay? when I was growing up, queer was a bad word and meant odd. there's nothing odd about you as far as I'm concerned."

      my dad asked me this when I came out to him. my response was "yes, you can call me regular gay."

      i love being at the intersection of many borders, thresholds, frontiers and identities. I am about as gay as the macy's parade. (that means alot). but I identify very strongly as queer, but am comfortable using a myriad of words, and identities.

      wow, this is a very broad question. um...I'd say my philosophy is pretty cliche. eat your vegetables and treat others the way you'd want to be treated. I believe very strongly in human divinity, God/Goddess, magic, love and community (however that looks for each of us).
