Miss Gay UK 2007

by Toni

This year will see the revival of the Miss Gay UK competition. Organiser Leah Shafik and her partner Nina, will be holding regional heats throughout the year before a final to decide the overall winner in Novemeber 2007.

Speaking about the idea for the competition Leah said, "Our idea to organise the Miss GayUK competition came from a discussion we had, raising the question, are you a woman who is gay or are you a gay woman? The difference is slight but significant."

So what qualities are they looking for in a Miss GayUK? A woman who can best represent the modern day Lesbian in the UK and can be a role model within the Gay communities. Each entrant will be required to represent themselves externally as well as internally. Throughout the whole competition, entrants will be helping local charities by fundraising during each heat and the final. The person who raises the most money in the heat will be given bonus points which could help put them in the lead to win the heat but will also give them the opportunity, in the final, to be crowned Miss GayCharity.

"We intend each heat to be a fun evening and to raise the lesbian profile on a generally male dominated scene." Leah added. "We are extremely excited about the competition and cant wait for the first event to take place to see all of our hard work come to fruition."

The final for the competition will be held at The Nightingale night club in Birmingham on 9th November 2007. For more information head on over to www.missgayuk.co.uk

, asexuals may eggane in non-sexual romantic relationships. These are labeled depending on the genders of the people involved (i.e. homoromantic relationships would be between people of the same gender).On this SAME SPECTRUM we have bisexuals, homosexuals, heterosexuals, and pansexuals. As all of these terms describe the way a person can identify their sexuality, one CANNOT be an asexual homosexual. It's the same thing as saying one lacks attraction to others, sexually, BUT is interested in the same gender, sexually. This is contradictory. Again, to say that one is a homoromantic asexual (meaning, in love with someone of the same gender otherwise, but not sexually attracted to) is correct.Some people who SHOW a disinterest in sex (and may or may not actually BE disinterested in sex) are not asexual at all, but may be suffering from a personality disorder, such as schizoid personality disorder or avoidant personality disorder. These personality disorders are also rare in the general population.While I am not a doctor or psychologist, I find sexuality and mental health fascinating and everything I have written is based in fact, not my opinion. Sorry for not citing. Please feel free to correct me if anything is outdated or found to be incorrect.

Several theories: 1) they are blcisalay frightened of their sexuality, therefore they feel safer with gay guys because deep down sex terrifies them but they still like to be flirty w/out the prospect of real sex or a real relationship happening; 2) gay guys are hot and they can't control themselves; 3) they like the conquest.VA:F [1.9.3_1094]please wait...VA:F [1.9.3_1094](from 0 votes)

men belong with women and blah blah blah I didn't raelly listen to him because dancing with the stars was going to come on any minute. But he eventually came around. Most everyone else was completely fine with it. There's only been one person in my life that I've met that doesn't like me solely based on the fact that I'm gay. He's kinda rude towards me and he'll say his comments under his breath but even still we can be in the same room and he doesn't want to punch me. I kinda want to punch him though but I wont! LOL My friend told me to think of it as this: I'm more of a man than he'll ever be and more of a woman than he'll ever have.

Mosaic DaveGoing off to college is an opurptone time to come out if you're concerned about how you'll be treated in highschool. Nobody in college knows you or has any preconceptions. They have no attachment to how you should be or how you're past should inform how you act now. I must say, though, I agree with Davey. There was one guy in our highschool who everyone thought was gay. The rumours were rampant and he was pretty obvious. I actually had a hand in outing him because I figured if people made fun of him they wouldn't notice me. Strangely after the initial wave of Did you hear about ***? He confirmed he's gay. it totally didn't matter anymore. The fear of any situation that hasn't happened yet is almost always worse than the situation itself.All the best however you choose to proceed! We've all been there and we're all behind you.

christopherreality is this-if youre gay-its like being left handed-as oepospd to being right-handed.i went on three times to California-to visit with my best friend and neighbour.on my third trip-soon after-i wrote a fourteen page coming out letter.then he stopped communicating with me-and it was over.we were just good friends.so-accept me or reject me. -the best thing we could all do-is come out.it then will be a non-issue.gay people my age-are so 20th century.young people i know well look at it as no big deal.i feel liberated.two guys know-they are so comfortable with it.one guy went to Columbia College in Chicago-a very gay-friendly school-and a star wrestler in school-rumours he plays into.likes his guy friends guessing-hes str8.another guy i know-hes str8-still dates his hs-cheerleader-likes his trophy woman-so much.hes into fashion-wants to do porn-hangs out in boystown-so if youre str8 or gay-no big deal. enough with the closet.its for clothes-not people.

"well, in that case I'm quite sure I will never get married then" as in [you've got to do it yosreulf to get it done correctly kind a gir] not really true but that's what I felt reading it. I dunno, maybe we're just too progressive and don't understand that everyone else want the world to stay the same as the last hundred/thousand years /bitter woman without a ring who still thinks we can change the world, maybe if we have a lot of money and wack out all those mindless tv reality shows with "winner gets a RING and a husband to take care of you"

would love to enter my girlfriend in edinburgh or glasgow how do i get a entry form

Posted by Claire, at 07:58 on Thu, Sep 6th

Hi i have placed an entry form in the contest which is being held in Plymouth on the 21st September. I have not heard anything and was wondering what the situation is and whether there are any specific aspects to the night that i should be aware of. I think that this is a fantastic opportunity and Plymouth is in need of somthing like this, especially as we have just had our first Gay pride and Mardi Gras night. Thank you xxx
