Life is a hole!!

[just in time]

How about Officer j in orientation today? What a riot. I saw professors wanting to crawl under their desks. How many out-right derogatory statements can you remember? He used words that I can not post here, called drunk women "disgusting" and said that all they want to do is take their clothes off, gave stern warnings about tattoos and body piercings and various other body orifices, and told us the worst thing we can do to a cop here is "cuss their mother." WOW! Truly informative.

Quote of the day from Officer j , "Life is a hole. You come in through a hole, you see through holes, you smell through holes, you eat through a hole, you [defecate] (only, he did not say defecate) through a hole, and when you die, they throw you in a hole. So girls, please do not put any more holes in your bodies."

Heh, it wasn't the police chief talking about the only bad cops find unforgivable is drugs? Or that if you go to a whorehouse, you have to pay, don't call him pleading innocent that you didn't know.

What an entertaining lecture that musta been. Did they invite him back in case he forgot something? G

[Mehrdad1]

HAHAHAHA....he gave the same lecture when I started in January 2003. Dr. T the biochem prof was not happy at some of his comments. But this is the sad part, most normal students like you and I would scoff at how silly his advice was and how unecessary it all seemed, but there were plenty of students who actually had to be told these things. In fact, by the time you leave SXM after your 5th semester, ask yourself how many students you know who fell perfectly into one of Officer J's categories, I think you may be surprised. Also, if you get to know Officer J, he's a very cool guy and can help you avoid some of the scams run against students on the island.

Why exactly did the school invite this person?

[aychamo]

LOL at that guy!

My favorite quote was:

"In St. Maarten we have all the same crimes you have in the US. Our biggest crimes are: sex, drugs, faggots, and gays."

[aychamo]

A couple questions:

A local or other student?

Why Cry?

Is it not a compliment?

:confused: :p

Local, no i didnt want to cry but it sounded better than saying i wanted to toss him from the 3rd floor balcony.....i dont find it a compliment when dudes find me hot

It does put you in a bind. Being from a gay friendly city like Montreal has put me in a few weird situations like that. Cannot think about getting violent but cannot send the wrong signals. Kind of creepy, but still a compliment...LOL.

I come from a pretty liberal area and have had several friends who are, it really doesnt bother me.....but one of your first days on an island, knowing almost no one does kind of make it different

I like that as I get older its likely to happen less) but it doesnt mean youre effeminant or less than masculine about you if a gay man finds you attractive. cool guys take the compliment for what its worth. of course if they then tell you they like really ugly men or something to that effect, then you might be offended. I do appreciate that men are often made to feel emasculated or in teh "Female" role if hit on by a man.

haha i agree, I cant comment on the number of times it has happened to me and generally I dont care and usually take it as well hey at least i dress really well.....but i stand by the fact when you just moved into a new apartment in a 3rd world country knowing absolutely no one with no safety net or even knowing what to do if a sitaution arose it would freak anyone out.....keep in mind i had left my door unlocked and open, something i was very used to doing when the guy who i met a couple days before came in and wanted more than a beer. Normal circumstances of someone checking you out on the beach or comin up to you at a club whatever its no big deal, but coming into where I live under those circumstances, i dont care what anyone says it would freak you out

Aloha,there you go.
I dunno. for me its an issue of being persued when not reciprocating. In general men seem more threatened by the concept of attracting the same sex. guys who don't see their self-image as contingent in any way upon other's perception/response don't seem to be bothered by it. That's why kids seem more grossed out by teh concept i think; they're still figuring out their own identity and are so easily upset by other's reactions to them.

Aloha,
I think you're hot.

I think you're hot.

Oh, stop. No, on second thought, don't.

I also think it depends what part of the country you were raised in. In the northeast, not that it is completely acceptable, but it is more tolerated and people seem to have less problems with it. People from the midwest and west minus california seem to freak out

[teratos]

Good point. If you tell a redneck you think he is a little light in loafers, they may try to physically harm you. Say that to a city slicker, they just laugh and say " your guess....."
