| Replying generally here both to Teddy and others in this thread. I'm gay. Most people in my local group (VLC) know that, and they know my partner, who sometimes comes and helps haul tables and setup or teardown at shows just to help out, though he's (...)

|
| (snippage) (...) Just to clarify. I wasn't suggesting that there would be explicit sexual content just content that is sexual in nature and on a site dedicated to a childs toy it would be inappropriate. I am not trying to vilify Teddy or his (...) (21 years ago, 14-Sep-04, to lugnet.people, lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.org)

I imagine most of the train guys are fans of real trains. I build a (...) (21 years ago, 14-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.org)

| (...) As this is directly topical for LUGNET discussion, and there's not even anything to debate, it doesn't belong in .off-topic.debate. Right? And if you do start a club, wouldn't it fall under the .org. hierarchy?

| Hi teddy, I have absolutely no problems with me being gay in this community. But I'd love to be a Lavender Brickette :-) Since I'm in the Netherlands, I don't have any issues with acceptance or something, but it would be nice to exchange thoughts (...)

Personally I don't see the reason to start labelling people into groups such as this, I can't see why just everyone regardless of who they are, where they are from and what they look like can't just do the same as everyone else, why does (...)

| | | | | Lavender Brick Society
|
| I've been kicking an idea around for a while, and I wanted to put it out to the community: I'd like to start an organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) AFOLs. A lavender brick society, if you like. It's seemed to me that (...) (21 years ago, 14-Sep-04, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.fun.community, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.people, lugnet.org) !!

Just as a reminder, this offer ist still open. Yours, (...) (21 years ago, 6-Sep-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.org)

It was definitely a good way to break the ice and introduce alot of the ideas/structure of the AFOL community to him. I look forward to (...) (21 years ago, 3-Sep-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.org)

Are they interesting to "sleeper" AFOLs? Have you heard any stories about how they (...) (21 years ago, 3-Sep-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.org)

I just got my printed copy from an AFOL friend of mine and I laughed out loud at the turn of every page. I saw a little or A LOT of myself in (...)

Shouldn't be TOO long. Sorry for the delay. As of right now only (...) (21 years ago, 25-Aug-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.org)
