The party
I went to this party Saturday night and it was pretty fun. I think it's a little queer (pun intended) that I felt so comfortable at this LBT house party, as opposed to some AUC club party. I think it's because there wasn't a sexual component there for me. I was just having a good time dancing with my friends and being silly. The way the club is set up and the way guys just feel they can grab you and just dance on you is kinda aggravating. And then do you ignore an inappropriate grope and let him walk off validated in his objectification of you, or do you voice your outrage and risk a verbal or even physical altercation? And there's that masochistic insecurity of what if guys don't objectify you, what does that mean? But that was totally not my line of thinking as we danced the night away to PYT, Let Me Love You, and the electric slide classic old school jam Before I Let Go on Saturday. On a semi-related note, I think I need to be a dj.

glad to hear you didn't catch 'the gay'. you know it's going around.
Yo brilliant post...encapsulates my love hate feeling towards the club and the slimy boys...although I don't find comfort at lgbt parties or spaces...I guess I'm comfortable partying in asexual spaces...I mean I like dancing without the component of hooking up or getting hooked. Anyway, I might have to riff on this on my next blog post.
