Boxes
We have all heard the term “thinking outside the box”. Well, I want to expand on that. If you look at your individual ideology, your beliefs, that is a box. It is where your limits are set, the place where you are most comfortable. Everyone has their own box. The question I have is, was the box built by nature or nurture? I think perhaps both, but like the individual, there is a variation of the ratio between the two. Some have more box built by society, while other have more built by their nature. There is also some harmony between the two, most times. Where there is an issue…

BBF Birthday
My Best Bear Friend came into town for his annual birthday time share in Tahoe. It was great to see him. So much has changed in our dynamic. Much for the better, some for the not as great. The best part is that we are still best friends after another man has entered his life. We are still best friends with benefits as well. Our relationship has evolved into a more comfortable relationship that is truly more focused on friendship and support of each other. In some ways I miss the hot to trot spontainious sex. We still endulge, but not as encompassing as it was. I know it is…

LGBTQ+ Glossary of Terms
I would love to say I came up with these all on my own. I will say that I intend to add to them and enhance them. That being said, I want to make sure I credit my sources if they are not me.

A Visit from a Friend
So my Bear Friend is visiting. He actually lives a few hours away, so visits are few. When he can, he will come up for a visit and it makes my day. Hanging out doing guy things is rare for me and when we get together, we have a great time. No topic is off limits and we both try to fix the world! LMAO. It’s fun because he is more liberal and I am more conservative, yet, hold on to your socks, we actually get along and respect each other. We both wish the rest of the country could be the same way. Don’t get me wrong, there is…

Dear Diary
WHAT? No this isn’t a diary! Hell, it is marginally a blog. Marginally because I don’t post for long periods of time and I am not after the almighty LIKE, or validation of the masses of the internet. So update, I have been hanging out a lot lately on an LGBTQ+ forum. It has soothed some of my inner demons. I have made many friends and have come to further terms with my sexuality internally. My eventual goal is to come out to my wife and kind of leave it at that. Once out I plan on exploring local Bear and Gay hangouts, though not for sex, though I REALLY…
