Quick Thoughts
Small thoughts and messages not worthy of their own pages but still something I feel like putting out there. Largely curated and possibly lightly edited from my posts and discussions in the WFM server.

I’m a fairly open person about a lot of things, and my friends and family know I’m poly and I am fierce about “this is me, deal with it” but I am very cautious about what I tell coworkers. It’s not a protected status and I could be fired for it. I genuinely don’t think I would be, but I’d rather not give them the excuse.
Otherwise, I am pretty open about it and it hasn’t been a big deal at all for anyone so far, friend, family, or stranger.
I don’t necessarily suggest flaunting these things if you’re not ready to harden yourself against the reality that some people are going to hate you for it.
Personally, I think that’s their loss. If they want to be ignorant and hate me because I have so much love in my life, that’s their problem. But you need to be ready to handle that.I like being an “in your face” type of person about these things. All my friends know I’m kinky and submissive and poly. I don’t like hiding things like that, it takes too much energy.
But I’m also very “fight me” about it.
I am open and willing to make people uncomfortable about things like this so that hopefully others won’t have to. I know a lot of people who are kinky and scared to let anyone know that. Poly. Gay. Trans.
Like, there’s so many things people are scared of. I care very much that my friends can be who they want to be. You do you.
And I’ll defend them with all the energy I have.The most important part is that you keep yourself safe.
