I Am Allowed To Be Who I Am
It has taken a long time to embrace my sexuality, and I am still learning to embrace it at 47 years old. I remember the day before I was getting married to my man. I didn't come out to him until the day before we got married because I wasn't sure how he would take me.

My First PRIDE Parade
(This piece is for the unofficial challenge in Queer Vocal Voices. The prompt is "What Does Pride Mean To You".) I didn’t know what to expect at the first PRIDE parade I went to. The gay community where I live is…challenging for a lack of a better term. (I will save that story for another time.) Being just out of the closet, I had no idea what the point of the parade was. Until I did some research into why we have pride parades. That is when I learned of the Stonewall riots, and the first parade the year following the riots.

Pride's Heir
In the vast expanse of the African savanna, where the golden rays of the sun kissed the earth each dawn, there stood a kingdom ruled by majestic lions. At the heart of this kingdom lay the pride lands, where the Lion King ruled over all creatures, large and small. The current monarch, King Mufasa, was a noble and just ruler, respected by all who dwelled within his domain.

Inquisitiveness To Know about History Of Houses
Nowadays people are more inquisitive to learn about history of houses, buildings and infrastructure of a city or area where they live in, and most of them have spent half of their lives there. For not being a chronicler its baseless to give my opinion but being an urban person if I spend time in that particular area for a longer duration the thing which I need most is taking care of that house or an apartment in that building For Example : If house is made from woods then save it from termites and other external environmental factors like rain and use of Copper Azole woods rather than reconstruct that house which have its own historical value

Feminism, For Her, And Him, And Them: VENUS VALLEY Gets Intersectional
I’m still here, my queerly beloveds; the finale section of this LGBTQIA+-philosophy-book-in-progress is now in its third chapter! And it’s a bit of a reading recommendation list, among other things; which, if you’ve been here since we started, you’ll know is where we started. If you’re coming in late, all you need to know is that you can debate, discuss, question, contribute, to each chapter of this book, as I release it in blog form, to your head’s and heart’s content; and your insights and inputs will be my edits, as this blog becomes a book; so the final finished book will be us, not just me. This chapter of things I’ve found while I’ve been working on this project, and will probably slot into place through the finished book, actually (hopefully) works as a taster of what it will be, if you’re new here. Welcome, just in time before we nearly finish, to Venus Valley: Queer Philosophers’ Forum.
