Thanks for the new thread, Becks. :)

Thanks for the new thread

TFTNT :hug:

can we add "Who you love is who you love, and it doesn’t matter." - ADC as next title suggestion please? :)

I'll add that right now, Tina. That's a great future title. :love:

Kind of got into a discussion with my friend about it tonight, it was a good talk, but then I though about it and can't even remember if I'm really out to her or not. :look: I saw something earlier about the weird place it is to be half out and half not, like out to some people but not to others. Rang totally true.

thanks for adding it :hug:

Very welcome.

I love the quote in this title. She's so cute

I can imagine her saying it

I think being a lesbian icon was kind of a shock to her at first, but she seems pretty cool with it. :love:
