bailey, everywhere

I'm Bailey, a small girl from a small town. I lived a year in Kyoto and I graduated from college in Chicago in June 2010. I lived in Boston for two years but it was a wash. I'm rebuilding from the ground up. I am intent on adventures. I like beautiful things, funny things, photography, Japan, and emoticaps. (I am a vegan in progress and sometimes it happens in public. I yell most frequently about religion, racism, "women's issues," feelings, and dresses.) My friends call me Etsuko. You write it like 悦子 and it is a very good name.
小さな町からの小さな女子ベイリー(悦子とも呼ばれてます、よく合った名前っす)です。一年間京都に住み、２０１０年６月にシカゴ大学から卒業しました。二年弱ボストンに住みましたが結局無駄でしたのでこれから完全なやり直し中。日常生活にも小さい冒険があると信じて過ごしています。趣味は美しいもの、おかしいもの、撮影、日本、とemoticaps。（只今ビーガン工事中でたまにその進歩も公にされます。頻繁に出て来る課題：宗教、人種主義、「女性問題」、感情、ワンピース。）どうぞ宜しくお願い致します♪

As a neuroscientist, I can tell you that being LGBT is completely biological. Androgen release during prenatal development is a sensitive thing and the sexually dimorphic structures in the brain that end up determining orientation and identity can easily not get enough/get too many androgens, altering the paradigm for typical male/female characterization. On a personal note, I believe that God intended this as a means to create extra families for orphaned children. Stay strong, I support you.

Youtube comment on this.

Interesting angle. More theists, specifically Christians, should adopt this point of view.

Adopted. I always had a sneaking suspicion that race and other religions existed as a prolonged lesson in tolerance, one which we refuse to learn.
