Why this blog?

happy valentines day!

this blog is the evolution of the last couple years of my life as a single Christian girl, particularly my time in the website BigChurch.com, which is a fascinatingly strange place.

i went in there as i was becoming increasingly disillusioned with my church and its anti-woman, sexually oppressive stance. duh. sexual liberation and the related mental health that comes from that seems kinda opposite to traditional christianity. i went into that website to begin, in an anonymous way, to discuss sexual liberation. i was met mostly with church lady hostility, some frank and meaningful conversation with men and women, and strangely more than a few men in their 40s cruising for me.

so this blog is a place for my stories from that site and the things i've learned from it and other experiences. my travels took me from my hometown of Penticton, BC to Vancouver [UBC, ugh] to another ville-de-higher-learning in western Canada.

here's what i wrote when i started a blog in BigChurch.com a few weeks ago, a blog that got tons of flack. you can read it and its comments without logging in if you click on that link a couple lines up.


well, i'm no longer in greater penticton. in the last couple years i've been to UBC and now i'm at another institution of higher learning [and tuition gouging] in western Canada. not saying where.

i've had a good time on this site and in real life hanging out with non-christians [learning how to appreciate micro-brew beers] and christians [some of whom appreciate micro-brews too, good on ya]. Inter-varsity Christian Fellowship and a couple other Chrstian groups and a borderline cult [i think] have been interesting places to chill.

and it's interesting how much sex goes on in Christian clubs. sex of all kinds. and lots of no-sex frustration in dating and relationships. and then there's the gringding, dry humping, petting, minor masturbation and oral sex that surround dating in and around Christian clubs.

at any rate, life is good, the Lord is good to me and my body is a temple. it's important to enjoy it!

so girls, let's go! keep it real and don't censor yourself. it stunts you and keeps you from honesty. woo-hoo!

in touch,
holly.
