[livejournal.com profile] dawnage_undead had these questions for me. I answered as best as I could:

1. What are your views on polyamory?
As far as I understand this word (I'm not looking at the dictionary) it's a good thing if everyone involved knows the rules (or lack of) and is ready for whatever comes. My first proper sexual relationship was with two men at the same time. They were good friends who had been together for a few years and I think they saw me as someone ready for gay sex, and open minded enough to just take it as sex and not love. I really love them for that. I'm now happy in a monogamous relationship but I say "go! go! go!" to anyone who wishes to live, indulge or experiment with polyamory...

Did I get the definition of the word right?

2. Where's the next place in this world you'd like to live?
I'd like to live in France, or Italy, but I'll probably end up in Canada again. Which is actually quite good as well.

3. Which member of Suede would you most like to shag and why?
The new keyboardist (what a lucky sod - he joins the band and then they quit!) seemed to be quite interesting looking. Brett was starting to look too much like an old chicken (though I still love him).

4. Of what in your past are you most ashamed?
I once stayed at my friend's house in Brazil (the one who is picking me up at the airport in a week and a half) and, during the night, I had a dream I was going to the toilet. I woke up almost screaming... I had pissed all over the mattress. He was sleeping on a bed beside mine and he didn't stir (because of smell or noise.) I lifted the mattress, took it to the bathroom, washed it as best as I could, then I blow dried it! I think I washed my clothes too and hung them on the shower box. I then went back to the room, flipped the mattress and just hoped nobody caught me out. Nobody ever said a word.

5. What is the most vile thing you would do if you knew you would get away with it?
I would kill George Bush, Ariel Sharon, the Queen, Prince Charles, Cuba Goody Goody Junior, Billy Ray Cyrus, those old men that sing the Macarena, and possibly Madonna. And I would pinch Michael Jackson's nose and throw it in the Thames.

Did I get the definition of the word right?

Yes.

So I'm dead today?

Hah! That was interesting.

I would like to be interviewed if you have the time.

Here are my questions:

1. Which guys/girls in your school (name them) would you like to sleep with?

2. What is the most romantic thing that ever happened to you?

3. Have you ever seen a corpse? Explain.

4. Who should be the next president of America?

5. If you could move to another country, where would you live?

I heard Canada is quite European for a North American country, in the human mindsets and views and et cetera. I'd much rather be there than here. And I've had the piss-dream-piss-awake occurence...when I was like, 7, but I had it nonetheless and can empathize ;)

Canada (specially Quebec) has a lot of the old ways of Europe. But, in many places, it's very similar to America (the northern states). I lived in Montreal for 5 years and I love that place...

actually, polyamory, in and of itself, isn't about "sex," but about the openness to love more than one person at a time. That can be romantically or sexually, but it's like being gay isn't about having anal sex all the time. There's a boy you like there!

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-01-23 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
then I'm very polyamorous!

[identity profile] peraventure.livejournal.com 2004-01-23 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
yeah, I think I'm pretty much there, too. I like the "theory" behind it, in that it sounds so pretty. As in, core relationship, satellite relationships, etc. But a lot of people use it as an excuse to have a whole lot of sex without care. The chat boards, etc. are pretty rife with flame wars, but when aren't they for any topic? You'd be surprised how bad the knitting groups can get on here.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2004-01-23 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Can you point a particular chat board? I haven't read any flame wars regarding this.

[identity profile] peraventure.livejournal.com 2004-01-23 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
oh, it just always happens. Pagan, poly, knitting, it doesn't matter, someone's gonna get pissed. there are poly communities here you can check out.
