On a given night, if you can decrease your standards with your alcohol intake, you'll take anybody home, honestly. What are you looking for? How do you spot the girls who are going to come home with you? Which means that on any given night you can take somebody home with you. But it's a lot more easy for the hookup scene, honestly. How are you finding the Morgantown dating scene? But I grew up in the DC area and had a scholarship for petroleum engineering, so I came here to study. Make him thirty-five, six-foot-three, and 180 pounds, and call it a day. I might have to look a little harder, but I'll find something a lot better. Picture West Side Story with wigs and glitter, and you have the gay scene around town. They give them the shun.Įxactly! But it's even gayer than West Side Story. But, the gay scene is very cliquey - you have different groups of gays that hang together, and won't talk to the other groups. The gay life here is a certain type - you have to be in with the drag queens and the twinks at the gay club, which isn't my scene. I've never found a boyfriend here in Morgantown - it's always when I'm away. It's just hard to find someone you want to be with here. There's a lot of diversity, so it's not an issue being gay here. There are still enough gay people here in town. There's a regular crowd that goes to Vice, the gay bar here in town, but we're only an hour from Pittsburgh, so I go there if I'm trying to have a "really good gay night." But I like Morgantown. What is the gay scene like overall in Morgantown? When changes happen in the world, West Virginia is one of the last places to catch on. It's sad, because West Virginia's a really good place to grow up, but the older generation here can be very close-minded.

But there are some people I know who were afraid to come out thinking they'd get kicked out of their houses. What's for dinner?" I've heard a lot of horror stories about it, but I guess I got lucky. When I was sixteen and told them I was gay, they just looked at me and laughed, and were like, "Well, obviously. I mean, when I was five years old, I was like, "I'm fucking gay." So, it was never really an issue of coming out with my parents, 'cause they kind of knew.

I've known I was gay for a really long time. What was it like coming out in West Virginia? So, I've gotten to a point where I'm like, "Ooh, I'm sorry. And then as you start to get into it and start to sweat, the drunk goggles slowly melt away. There've been countless times when I've been really drunk, been hot and heavy in the moment, like hard and ready. No, but I've been a little offensive myself. Has anyone ever offended you in the bedroom? And I walk by the bananas, trying to make a diversion, and he followed me through Wal-Mart, crying. Anyway, I'm looking through the bins, and he just shows up. Those five-dollar bins - you find things you could never find for five dollars. But as janky as Wal-Mart might be, they have a good music selection. I was trying to get music for dance class. One of them chased me through a Wal-Mart. You know how many airplane bottles I can fit in here? It has saved me from multiple sticky situations. You get pulled over, get a DUI test, no one's going to look through your chaos pouch. So, you put your party material in there. It is an old-school, Grandma fanny pack, but you cock it to the left side a little bit, right off-center. I'm trying to start a chaos-pouch movement here.

And maybe my way to attract people is a nice conversation piece, such as.Ī chaos pouch, if you will. You know why? 'Cause I wear a chaos pouch. I'm never looking to meet people, but if I come across them and they intrigue me with conversation and ideas, why not? But I end up meeting people almost everyday. My party pouch in the front, where I keep my. My keys, with a condom attached - because everyone is sexually active in Morgantown. I have my phone, in case I get in a date-rape situation. But, if the date's really good, and you get a little Chitty Chitty Bang Bang on, afterwards, you're gonna need a Red. We also have a pack of Marlboro Reds, because if the date's bad, you're gonna need a Red. We have money, to go on an expensive date. Listen in, and I'll tell y'all what's in my fanny pack. And my feelings on the dating life with a fanny pack is that you're always prepared.
