(bold is mine) I wouldn't call the support being shown here a PC demonstration. I would call it kindness and tolerance for the diversity of others. Speaking for myself only, I have learned a lot around here in the absence of misery and hostility. But I have learned that many people make their own lives more comfortable by assigning tags and catchall psychological characteristics to others. It's easier to quantify and categorize this mysterious planet and the enigmatic spirits who populate it if one reduces them down to neat little labels on boxes (and thus limits them) in order to appease a fearful need for order and homogeneity.....IP: Logged |

I find your comments interesting, Scorpionic. At least you can back them up with some kind of reasoning, even if no one agrees with it. It's not like you just said something solely to offend with no solid basis of explanation.I won't state whether I agree or disagree (no real opinion, to be honest), but rather that I appreciate your honest opinion. ------------------ Sagittarius AC, Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Leo IP: Logged |

If everyone could refrain from adding these pulpy emotions to my attempt towards gaining intellectual insight, we might actually have a chance at some educational conversation!Ughh... All this talk of FEELINGS. From the start I've tried to make an intellectual observation, and I've been hoping for intellectual responses, but its seems many have included terms like "love" and "tolerance" and "offended", which only serve to stifle any measureable understanding. Although I've already stated that I fully embrace homosexuality on a social scale, these "feelings" about homosexuality have nothing to do with this. I'm simply making an observational deduction, which is why it shocks me that people would think I'm trying to insult anyone. I didn't hijack this thread. I was giving BleuArtemis a socio-astrological response based on certain trends I had observed. I'm always open to good debate, but the flood of retaliatory anger served to crash this plane into the mountain. Edit: Thanks Alana, for letting me be me. IP: Logged |

You combine two contradictory notions in your original thesis. They love themselves, and they hate themselves. That could be said of a lot of straight people as well... a lot of straight people who've never thought about identifying as another sex as a way of dealing with their love/hate attitudes towards themselves.You say that they hate women and therefore subvert their feminity. One of the lesbians I know is a mother, and runs her own child daycare. She drives a minivan, and is friends with a lot of the other mothers whose children also go her daughter's school. Not exactly what I would call subverting her feminity. She didn't have the child within a hetero relationship either. Her partner grew up in an Irish family with all brothers. I would consider her a tomboy much more so than I would consider her to be actually trying to be a man. Her attitudes represent themes in her upbringing, but I've never once got the impression that she's actively trying to be a male. She's a Cancer, so she's naturally engaging in the typical Cancerian fashion. Last time I spoke with her she was relaying a story about her parents age difference, how her dad is, I think it was, 7 years older than her mom, and how she used that information against them when she was dating guys as a teenager. Another point I could make in general is that it's illogical to presume that a person who hates their own sex would opt to strictly have relationships with their own sex. There are a lot of straight people that take serious issue with members of their own gender. Any straight nice guy will tell you that it sucks dealing with male stereotypes when trying to get together with women. On the other side, women are often competitive with one another, especially in the workplace. It doesn't make them run for the arms of another woman...necessarily. IP: Logged |

Did someone mention lesbian? Yeah, your synastry is ok. The best thing to do is look at your natal chart and get the general themes, as the synastry between you two is like your natal chart. Much better for you than her. You'd be much more like friends in this relationship. IP: Logged |

Nice Kite. You both have Sun Opposite Saturn/Pluto, this opposition is the testing bit of the kite, but it also the part that gets things up and flying. A major configuration like this on a synastry chart makes me think a relationship of some significance, just my view, now. I wouldn't want to cause any controversy.

In general, similar birthdays will work well. I did that myself and still am. Looking for people with the same birthday to see how the relationship would be. I have a brother and sister with the exact same birthday and it is touch and go, but we generally get each other. Much different dynamic when we are brother and sister as opposed to friends or something more.I guess the best combination would be similar birthday, but opposite AC. Both your AC are in effect semi-sextile (30 degrees away by sign) but as the number of degrees is not too wide, I guess you can call them conjunct. Which is the best aspect you can get. Let us know how it goes as that seems a good combination. IP: Logged |

In more good news for lesbians,A 2007 study from University of Northern Iowa looked at 2000 census data and found that cohabitating lesbians earn about 10 percent more annually than married women. They also earn more than cohabitating, unmarried, heterosexual women. http://finance.yahoo.com/career-work/article/105444/9-Reasons-Your-Salary-Isn't-Higher IP: Logged |
