Relationships, SO's, and Sexuality

[http://users.livejournal.com/_zephyra_/]

This is a topic that has caused me some stress in the past, so I figured I'd ask about it here...

Have (m)any of you had to deal with conflicting relationship/sexual needs of your insiders?

(I'm the main person in here, and I'm a straight female in a female body. Two others inside are straight females, and the third is bi and into all sorts of kinks. We've managed to work out a compromise (in theory) that this body won't be with another female, but that we can each negotiate open relationships with the (male) people we care for. The deal has been in place for a while now, but we are only *now* starting to venture into each having our own relationships, so I no indication on if this is really going to work or not. (What kinks we will allow the forth to do with this body is/are also still being debated))

Thanks for your time...

Oo I am on a new list

They say, "This group is for multiples who are or who would like to be on the FLYlady system."

"FlyLady" is someone who teaches people how to be able to clean stuff and organize things without freaking out and without *difficulty.* Terra, who started the flyingmultiples list, explained her work partly by saying "Her primary message is to make peace in your home and learn to love yourself through the application of routines and attitude adjustment in your daily life. There are people all over the world and from all sorts of ethnicities on her list and she makes a point of saying that her message has nothing to do with religion and she's not pushing her Christianity off on people (she isn't) and that her message of peace in the home is purely domestic. She's had a LOT of flack recently about her message of peace from Americans who are pro-war, which I think is purely ridiculous, especially since if you really read her message you have no idea if she's pro or anti this war. I think she's of the opinion that if everyone developed peace in their home there'd be no need for war, which is different than being against this particular war."

It's a very tiny list so far. The FlyLady website is too intense for me right now. I read it a little while ago, well parts of it anyway, and I did manage to get the idea of cleaning one thing every day for about fifteen minutes. Well, I'm the main person in here who ever cleans anything, so we tend to adapt it to cleaning just one thing every day - and then if someone can't deal with cleaning for fifteen minutes, they can just clean a mirror or the sink or get all their stuff off of the sofa or whatever. Or I can do the dishes and then decide it would be fun to mop the floor and rearrange all of our books too :-)

Maybe I'm secretly joining it in an attempt to take over our entire system and turn us into cleanin' fools. I'm not sure :-)
