TSFB

 Got to give another "big up" to the lovely ladies!  You know you're Rock Stars! ;)

Loved that Jill was on again because I'm having some serious Jill withdrawl and am missing WGN.

 

(To be youself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.)

And this is one of the reasons. Phenomenal as usual, Jill & Cathy, you guys are too damn funny.

This was a funny Vlog, and I liked it when you all talked about how to come out to your friends and family. I am coming out slowly to my friends and to some of the people at the university, but I didn't come out to my parents yet and that is just because of how my parents behave and talk about gay people, and because they are sooo religios and has another culture that they are following.

To understand, I come from Lebanon but have been living in Sweden from the time I was 2 years old.

Love your Vlog, Like always...

I totally identify myself with these stories.

Hell, I've been openly gay for over 20 years in Indiana, so there are a few of us at least. It really depends on where you live -- We're in Indianapolis, where no one bats an eye. My girlfriend and I are having a huge wedding in a park in downtown Indianapolis next weekend, and half the neighborhood helped get the park ready for it.

I know that living in a city makes a big difference, but if you're wanting to connect with people, check out the OurChart group of people from Indiana, or try Match.com.

my weekly dose!

so awesome again with the Brits on the blog. man the thing about coming out can be hard. i'm going through it right now with my mum. she hasn't kicked me out the house though, that's a start!

It is so great that Cathy and Jill got the opportunity to talk to this group of girls.  It must have been an amazing time for all of them to go to California and on top of that meet Cathy and Jill. California dreaming myself. Hope the girls had a great time. 

Glad to have you back and see this "relaxed vlog".

I can relate to this stories cause when I came out I was the only lesbian everyone had ever met.... until 2 of my friends came out to me, but since they are still in the closet I´m the one who has to answer the stupid questions my friends ask.

Reeked of "dont you know who i am"   LOL!

I hate people invading personal space, especially if i dont really like them.

1: Tapping is so annoying! and 2 pulling hair to get attention is even worse, someone wasnt socialised as a baby! she needs to work on her social skills!

Great Vlog, good real life situations discussed as well as some humour. Such a good mix!

Seeing so many people who are not out yet still have a queer community to reach out to is beyond awesome. I'm very proud to be a part of this community too. Cheers to Afterellen for making life that much easier for so many women around the world.

Asking about the origin of user names - loved the stories - and now I totally want a talking guinea pig! :)

And best line - Cathy wins - "You were assaulted head to toe" - she pulled Jill's weave and chipped her pedi - the nerve of that woman!

another fab episode as usual - thanks for being real - to all of you ladies!

 

is the most difficult thing I ever did as a two year old. Great vlog Cathy, as usual. You and Jill are funny together, I think the funniest couple on afterellen. Cathy you are very hot in your red tank.

he he Jill is so funny and it was great to see the girls from UJBFC again. You guys rock as always.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------There is too much love in this world to have to deal with hate.

I love hearing all these stories. For anyone wanting to hear a ood one for encouragement.

I came out at 17 to my first girlfriend (and the person I've been with for 3 yrs now, aww how sweet) through the net, met a big group of lesbians, then came out to my family (5 siblings) and they all took it well, especially my brother who was 15 and now 18 and does not have a typical teenage boy attitude (he understands theres no point to fantasying about lesbians!). I kinda left it to my mum to tell everyone else! Her parents are amazing, my grandad is ex army and is very strict, and he took my aside and said he loved me still, and me and my girlfriend spent the day with them and I've never seen him talk so much to someone in my life than he did with my girlfriend. Even my 86 yr old great nan is good about it. I've not had one neggative reaction!

 

The only sucky thing is I live in a small town with no real gay community and all my mates live away from here, but its a good excuse to party in London (Where they live)

two weeks of jill definitely makes up for the fact that it took so long to get her on this fantastic vlog

The English girl in the green top sounds a bit Dutch to me.

LOL @ the Liverpool accent, love it =)

To all the English girls, go a weekend to Brighton! Its so gay and 99% chance youll find someone.

Nice to see Jill Bennett in something else than a vest. Liking the hair! You're gorgeous!

to the clown room.  You know the more I watch, the more I realize how comfortable Jill and Cathy are and funny, very funny with each other.  I liked the girls advice on coming out, especially whoever said to just get it over with and then you can move on, I think that's right.  As for where to meet girls, I've always had luck at the laundra mat and the whole foods grocery store.  Barnes and Nobles ain't bad either.   Another fantastic vlog. 

Love love loveeee this episode(especially Jill ;D)

Jill+Cathy= Hilarity. I heart you both:P

~A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.

I love the vlog as always. The meeting and advice on coming out were really good and helpful. Username choices were really interesting,too. Love the 40's voice Jill:D

nothing

 

 

Thanks again for another wonderful Vlog.  Love that Jill Bennett.

NEW LESBIAN ITEMS ADDED DAILY   http://www.zazzle.com/tristen12

 

It's always so hard to wait for DeBuono Fridays.  But at last, it's here!!!!!  I just have to face it, I have a DeBuono crush!!! 

I grew up in Indiana too!!  I did the same thing Angel does...don't actually come out but wear rainbow shoelaces and necklaces and stuff.  I think all my friends figured it out, but I kept denying it...which I regret doing now.   When I lived in Indiana I thought I was like the only lesbian in the whole town. Now I live in Madison, WI (for college...it's like the gayest place lol) and now when I go back to Indiana I'm actually meeting a ton out out girls.  It's awesome.  I think it's just being in high school that made me feel alienated.  

ANYWAY!! Awesome vlog.  Way to represent Indiana!

I had to watch again, but I'm pretty sure I saw it. 

Like Charlie said, a good way to begin the coming out process (should you be in college at the time you choose to do so) is to join the campus GLA (gay & lesbian alliance). People will in some cases start to put 2 and 2 together so less work for you, but you are at also guaranteed a group of pple that are or have been or will be going through the coming out process. Having them was also good for my confidence - after a while I felt as though it doesn't matter how bad your folks or friends might take it, eventually they have to deal (however long that takes, I suppose). Seek solace in community folks! It truly does help.

How unfortunate is it that my best friends are all straight and not the queer folks *sigh* W/e! Nice vlog ladies =)

Go forth and press play @ 3WayTv.tv

Hey, i still didn't get my money back!.... just kidding :P

you both rock!!!

 

 

This was another really great episode of WYP. Cool girls and great advice.

Who doesn't love to watch Jill Bennett fish money out of Cathy DeBuono's bra? :D

yay! :) 

Cathy and Jill = funny! :)

Thx for another great vlog.

I can't even think straight...

I do not think they are sleazy, in fact they are the best bars in liverpool...... they do however need a makeover.

Awesome =D

There's actully a really good women's gay scene in Liverpool.

Have a search of myspace for 'Girls Go Down' events. There's a club night first sunday of every month in a bar on lark 'lesbian' lane, a lesbian film club that meets at FACT regularly and a 'Brunch Out' event once a month for both gays and lesbians and their straight friends.

You girls were very lucky to be able to go to LA and meet Cathy and Jill ^^ How long did you stay in LA?

Anyway, this vlog was great, as usual, and Jill and Cathy were great, as usual ^^

 

Love this vlog!!! I wish I was there. Great interaction and thank you girls for sharing your experiences with the rest of AE. Cathy should do this more often, hang out with AE people.

 

~confusedN~

This vlog is one of the best and this episode is fun to watch

I have never left a comment before but I just wanted to say how amazing it was to hear about peoples stories from somewhere that was near me, (liverpool) I have been out now four years and it is nice to hear how people how coped with it and how it effects their lives and how similar the coming out experience can be with the fear and everything!

Afterellen for me was the only place when i was younger that i had which i could feel part of a community and still do, thanks for this vlog and for all the girls that shared their experience it was heart warming, now i am leaving before i get really touchy feely ick!! hehe

all of them.  I love the mixture of accents.  Speaking of Xena.  I met up with a community of lesbians because of that t.v. show.  It was great because it gave me a community of gay people to interact with because I live in Imaho the most conservative state in the union next to Utah.  Now I meet up with these people once a year, talk to them regularly on the computer and on the phone and it's a great support system.  So I made a family that was accepting of me as I was and then my real family somehow became more accepting.  Cathy you vlogs are the best, I love each and everyone of them and I love you for doing them.  Keep up the great work. 

 

Nice to see the AE women from all over the world.  Makes our community even nicer!

Jill and Cathy have a great rapport.  They are a delight to see on any VLOG they are in!

I came out rather late in life and only knew 2 gay people.  When I went to the local LGBT Center, the most lesbians I met were kind of diesel dykie and I cried because I thought that, OMG I am not like that, how can I be gay?  Thanks to an online community (on Prodigy at the time) I was able to handle myacceptance of self and that helped me with my coming out process.

Like one of the ladies on the vlog said, I don't advertise I am gay, but I don't deny it and I will talk freely about my gf and share different stories of events I have been to with friends.  I'm fortunate I am accepted for myself as a good and kind person, not just by whom I choose to love.

I chose my screen name long ago from my Prodigy days.  I love to 'explore' life, learn new things, go new places so hence the name, Explorergal!
