I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a philosopher-journalist, a truth-seeker, a writer, a vegetarian, a cat (and other animal) lover, a feminist, an activist, and an amateur astrologer. I am editor of the women and LGBT section of Global Report.I love my family and my friends -- thank you for being part of my life! *internet xo*
You Are a Chimera
You are very outgoing and well connected to many people.
Incredibly devoted to your family and friends, you find purpose in nurturing others.
You are rarely alone, and you do best in the company of others.
You are incredibly expressive, and people are sometimes overwhelmed by your strong emotions. What Mythological Creature Are You?
You Are Lisa Simpson
A total child prodigy and super genius, you have the mind for world domination.
But you prefer world peace, Buddhism, and tofu dogs.
You will be remembered for: all your academic accomplishments
Your life philosophy: "I refuse to believe that everybody refuses to believe the truth" The Simpsons Personality Test"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all menand women are created equal."-Elizabeth Cady Stanton . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . - . -"Cautious, careful people always casting about to preserve their reputation or social standards never can bring about reform. Those who are really in earnest are willing to be anything or nothing in the world's estimation, and publicly and privately, in season and out, avow their sympathies with despised ideas and their advocates, and bear the consequences."-Susan B. Anthony
