Happy Halloween! Now<br />

everyone, take your<br />

clothing off! I worked as<br />

a bartender for almost<br />

15 years, and I saw more<br />

skin working Halloween<br />

night than any night at a<br />

strip club. The gays love<br />

a good costume that<br />

shows off their bodies,<br />

and why shouldn’t they?<br />

They’ve worked hard for<br />

them. But, the creativity<br />

is sometimes lacking. I<br />

mean, how many shirtless<br />

superheroes can there<br />

really be? Someone give<br />

me sexy John Wayne<br />

Gacy, am I right?<br />

Last Halloween, I feel in<br />

love… with a vampire.<br />

I was at an apartment<br />

party on 18th Street<br />

in Chelsea when this<br />

beautiful guy showed<br />

up: blue eyes, jet black<br />

hair and dressed like<br />

that Twilight guy. He<br />

was in character the<br />

entire night. I ended up<br />

getting messed up, and<br />

we eventually f*cked in<br />

the stairwell (real classy,<br />

I know). He disappeared<br />

after, and I haven’t seen<br />

him since. I asked a few<br />

people about him, but it<br />

was packed, and no one<br />

seemed to know. It was<br />

the hottest sex, and I<br />

can’t stop thinking about<br />

him. This isn’t as much<br />

a question as it’s me<br />

hoping you’ll print this<br />

and he’ll come looking<br />

for me. Dramatic?<br />

Tragic? Pathetic? - Male,<br />

Gay, 23<br />

There you go. I’m putting<br />

it out into the universe.<br />

I don’t know if this is<br />

dramatic, tragic, pathetic,<br />

weird or maybe fun?<br />

Might be a fetish, an<br />

attraction to vampires?<br />

Are you a certified fang<br />

banger? Seriously though,<br />

this might be something<br />

you want to explore, just<br />

in case this guy doesn’t<br />

come flying back around.<br />

Fingers crossed you<br />

meet him again this year,<br />

but maybe try to get his<br />

contact info too, instead<br />

of just his vampire D.<br />

I’ve been struggling<br />

with my gender identity<br />

for a while. I think I<br />

might actually be a<br />

woman. I’ve felt this<br />

way for a really long<br />

time, but always hid it<br />

and thought maybe I<br />

was just gay. I guess I<br />

identify as bi though?<br />

Lots of questioning<br />

MASHING<br />

going on. As a little<br />

kid I remember telling<br />

my mom that I was her<br />

little girl, not boy, and<br />

she would yell at me.<br />

Eventually I stopped.<br />

I was thinking that<br />

maybe this year for<br />

Halloween I’d go out in<br />

public wearing women’s<br />

clothing for the first<br />

time and just tell my<br />

friends it’s a joke. Test<br />

the waters? Is this a<br />

terrible idea? Or totally<br />

offensive? I’m really<br />

scared, but also really<br />

excited. - Trans?, Bi, 21<br />

I say go for it. Allow<br />

yourself to really dive in<br />

and see how you feel.<br />

Remember, though,<br />

being trans isn’t about<br />

just dressing up and<br />

going out for a night; it’s<br />

more complicated. I’d<br />

recommend you check<br />

out some online forums<br />

and get acquainted with<br />

the trans community in<br />

NYC. Luckily there are<br />

tons of people here who<br />

know what you’re going<br />

through and can help you<br />

make the best decisions<br />

for yourself. I think it’s<br />

awesome that you want<br />

to explore and express<br />

this side of yourself, and<br />

even though it’s just one<br />

night, I hope you have an<br />

amazing time!<br />
