Well, sir or madam of no name, it must be noted that I had the room to myself last night, I didn't think there would be a problem with it; she merely came back before I expected her to. I also waited to get out of bed until she had left the room again, thus saving her from actually seeing anything other than head, shoulders, and arms. And I don't go out into the "real world" naked because that would get me arrested. I, personally, don't find the dorm to be that hot, usually; I choose nudity for reasons other than temperature-related comfort. But again, I only do so when I am pretty sure I won't have...guests.
My roommate has never expressed any overt issues with my sexuality, granted, but her response, even with the factor that she was hung over, was rather extreme, so I was merely thinking out loud about a possible reason. I never said that straight people carry a vendetta, a fact you would be aware of if you knew me personally.
On that same vein of sexuality, I am aware that the rumor mill has labelled me a lesbian, but that isn't quite the case. I'm going to assume, since you cited the rumor mill rather than my journal, that you are on campus somewhere, probably in my building, so you probably found this journal through my Facebook profile. If this is the truth, you should have kept reading: I'm openly bisexual. I don't prefer to wave a flag, though, whether it have a rainbow or the red, purple, and blue.
My main problem with this whole situation is that my roommate never expressed a problem with this before. "Social skills" are all but irrelevant in this issue; I don't wander around the room naked, nor do I sleep in the nude when she's in the room. I allow a certain amount of leeway when hung over (which doesn't me, by the way; I don't care what she does as long as no one throws up on me), but if she had a problem, she should have come to me earlier; we have been living together since September, after all.
I won't say that your feedback was helpful, exactly, but it has let me know that other people are reading this thing. Thanks for that eye-opener.
Oh yeah, and just a suggestion, but it's rather cowardly to comment like this and not even leave your name. If you were so sure of your position, why not admit it's yours?
