I love hearing "the gay community can be weirdly conservative"; I'd spoken to a young trans-curious girl a couple of years ago, who told me that the worst discrimination she'd experienced was from other transgendered people, telling her that because she was slowly "trying on" her male persona, as she was IN transition, was constantly told she was a fraud, because She wasn't fully He yet, and thus was invalid. It was representative of the dichotomy that was still being adhered to, M/F, versus all of the ways to Be in between. The spectrum is real!
Thank you for sharing this experience here, too! Indeed, it seems like something that isn't talked about very much. Perhaps because it seems like it's better to highlight any solidarity than to focus on the gatekeeping-- but it's essential to recognize the subtleties in any community as well, at the very least to keep from painting everyone with one singular brush. We also love Allison's way of talking about these kinds of things with compassion and insight, even while recognizing that there is still room for improvement and empathy all around.
As a teenager, internally examining my own sexuality, I thought that I was very lucky to have a gay older brother. I knew I was mostly attracted to women, but occasionally a guy would come along that turned my head. I've got no negative thoughts about homosexuality, but it still took me a while to understand that I fancied these guys as my assumption was, because I fancied women (a lot), that I was straight. Aren't I lucky, I thought, I have a gay older brother (6 years older) whom I can talk to about these feelings and the confusion surrounding them. I was nervous though and approached the subject slowly. I'm glad I did. Without mentioning my own situation, I bought up the subject of bisexuality. I was shocked to hear my brother's vitriolic views;; words like 'perverted' and 'greedy'; terms like 'just confused' or 'closeted gays' and also a phrase used in this story 'ruining it for the rest of us'. Needless to say, I didn't reveal to my brother why I had opened this conversation with him. It's now thirty years later and I'm, only now, beginning to openly explore this side of myself again. I've spoken to my friends in a sort of soft 'coming out' way, I've had discussions with my mum and daughter about it; I've, nervously, been open with members of the queer community that I meet, comforted by the thought that I am th B in LGBTQ+ (Although my latest realisation is that I'm happy to think of myself as pansexual...ahh there's no letter for that! Are the pans the new outcasts? Maybe the Q deals with that. Phew!😂), but I still don't want to have the discussion with my brother and I'm sad about that. He was so readily accepted when he came out to his family, at the age of 16, that I'm also a little angry about his 'conservative' bigotry.
This is the best mystery box story I’ve heard so far. I LOVE IT!!!! I love when she says “I would be a fool to reject love bc it didn’t come in the package I was expecting.” Isn’t that such a queer thing to say?! But in her case it was flipped! Love love love! So much!
So glad you enjoyed it! Allison is one-of-a-kind and we're all better for having her out there. You should definitely check out her podcast, Artgasm. She is so wise and so approachable in the way she presents her thoughts!
Love this ❤ The way you told your story about life, adventure and love was amazing! I found myself smiling when you said “and that was 12 years ago…” Life is hard, but a hell of a lot easier with someone in your corner! Thank you for sharing!!
So I used to have a couple gay gf's..but they liked to use me as a novelty item once in a while. The 1st time was nearly the last. After making one of their heads explode..she managed to utter the words "that was the best head I've ever had"..it was nearly a problem until I treated her gf to the same..it was an ongoing thing for about 2 yrs after that 💪👍
I don't comment very often on "Mystery box". But I felt -just had to for this one. The story is Extremely a Hot one, But is also very Heartfelt ❤.. extra kudos, should Definitely go out to Miss Alice Moon. For her Candor and conveying the story so Beautifully, I would like to wish her nothing but happiness, for her and her someone special..
I have been with my husband since we were 13, 20 years later, still trying to explain my pansexual self that his 'bicurious' self is the biggest turn on. Well, just thank you! We live in a small town in Missouri. He is stuck, not believing he can be whomever he needs to be and when he is... well.. HOTTT
Thank YOU for sharing your reaction to Allison's story. We hope that your husband can find a place of comfort with his sexual expression. It's wonderful to know he has such a supportive partner. Much love!
Sensitive straight guy in tears over here! That's one of the most beautiful love stories I've ever heard. May your willingness to extend your boundaries serve as inspiration to others. Rarely am I so moved by a story that makes me laugh so hard! Mazel tov!
How nice for you! Perhaps we can extend a little compassion to those who are less fortunate. Our society can be very unforgiving of those who choose their own way.
Sounds like he's labeling himself as a gay man who identifies as a lesbian who wants to have sex with a lesbian who wants to be a gay man and she's a lesbian who wants to identify as a gay man. They's still identifying themselves by the actions of societies labels.
Rational Thinker People have to ally ourselves (loosely!), against what the Beatles used to call “The Blue Meanies”. Life is a *lot* like “Police Academy” (“Yes, Officer, I am having a few problems with Sargent Callahan” - more, more, more!)
"That usually work". Lol, I dated lesbians and bisexual for 2 years. Either, they hit on me or I them. The truth is being in a wheelchair makes any decent male a target for badly battered women. Most of the lesbians I dated had abusive male relationship or were married to abusive men. Being in a wheelchair lowers their fear and makes me a target. The psychology of the dynamics is rather interesting.
@@fishbonefla5917 I did. Then went on line, found her and Reid, satisfied it is true, but honestly don't give a fuck. Got bigger fish to fry, Fishbone.
That might be the most beautiful love story I have ever heard. I am joyous and envious, but most of all it gives me hope, because I am living authentically, and that has made me unappealing to a large demographic of people, the very people I have had at the center of my desires, but love is not a wholesale pursuit. It is a one off sale. The transaction is personal and individual, and you don't need a whole ocean of fish, you just need one centaur with unicorn rising.
What a wonderful way to say this. Please stay hopeful-- you will find your centaur, or whoever/whatever it is you seek. Don't settle, be you and like will attract like. 💕❤️💜
Allison is an incredible person, and no doubt inspires those feelings in many people. ;) If you and your husband are around this Tuesday night, Allison will be one of our Sex/People panelists, livestreaming for free on this channel at 7pm PST. Hope to see you there!
I feel really bad making this comment because the number of comments was at 69 bwahahahahahahaha Butttttt I'm really confused because I thought lesbian meant that they didn't like men. maybe I'm missing the point but is she trying to say that she was bi the whole time? Not judging and I'm not gay, so maybe I'm behind the curve on the lingo. I have a gay nephew who told me that all people are on a sliding scale of sexuality. That there is no gay or straight! he also said that I'm at the way for end of that scale for being straight but I have never judged anyone for their choice in sexuality. That's it I think she needs some new friends!!!
You show a lot of thoughtfulness just by asking the question. We live in a time when so much of our understanding of sexuality is shifting, and many of us need to be more comfortable saying "I don't understand," as you have. While we won't pretend we have any 'official' answer (as if there could be one), it may be helpful to think of something more three-dimensional than the scale your nephew mentioned. That scale goes from "gay to straight" with, presumably "bisexual" in the middle. But many people these days are finding that they don't feel they resonate with anything on that scale-- it's just all we've been offered to choose from. Some peoples' sexuality expresses in ways that don't necessarily break down by binary way we've been taught to think of gender. We believe this particular story from Allison Moon is a beautiful love story, and that it exists outside of gender. Or, put another way, you could substitute any two people into the story, and any circumstances, and the story is about CONNECTION. That may not give you as clear-cut of an answer as you were hoping for, but it's a start towards thinking of sex, gender, love, etc., in broader terms for some people than the standard narrative we've been handed until now. You're not wrong, it _is_ complicated, but we hope that explanation helps!
Finally a true and real lesbian my lady you and me do not see eye-to-eye sexually but I swear to God if you ever in Manhattan feel free to hit me up I will take you out in the first round is on me no attachments
what fucking times we're living eh, so sad, people feeling proud of that kind of sickness... how the fuck some even call it love.... hahaha! I think anybody can do whatever the fuck they please with their body and mind, but feel "so proud" for shit like this. WOW ! we're born as man and woman for a reason.
As I have been binge watching this channel from oldest to newest, this is the best video on here so far. Touching, thoughtful and funny. Great story.

SAMES, SIS! When she said the 12 years I almost cried😭😭😭😭
I mean yeah… big time. I totally felt like I was there in each scanario. I want to go to clubs with her!!! 🎉sigh….😊
Never commented on a mystery box story before but best story ever.. and the fact that it’s 12 years and going... best story ever...
So glad you enjoyed it! Allison is one-of-a-kind and we're all better for having her out there. You should definitely check out her podcast, Artgasm. She is so wise and so approachable in the way she presents her thoughts!
So validating. I’m bisexual and this was both hot, and really comforting to hear, on several levels.
Thank you for sharing such a powerful reaction!
And that week turned into 12 years ❤❤❤ Love your story!! 🥰
So glad you enjoyed Allison's story! She's one of a kind, for sure.
Love this ❤ The way you told your story about life, adventure and love was amazing! I found myself smiling when you said “and that was 12 years ago…” Life is hard, but a hell of a lot easier with someone in your corner! Thank you for sharing!!
Allison Moon , I absolutely love your storytelling skills 🤗🤗 tyvm
We queers need more good pr like this. Everyone is beautiful to someone, prejudice hurts us all.
Richard Hoffman well said! Queers can be prejudice against straight, too! This story shows that we can all love other HUMANS and don’t need labels. 💓
Allison has a great vocabulary amazing
So glad I found this channel. Love these stories!
Thanks! We're glad to have you here. :)
What a fantastic storyteller 👏
Glad you think so! Allison is one of our favorite people and we love love love working with her. You should check out her podcast, Artgasm. :D
She is a fabulous story teller! I hung on her every word... love it!
Glad you enjoyed it! Allison is truly compelling. Check out our recent videos... she told another story with us this past April!
These new TED talks are getting really strange.
haha yesss 🤣
😆
Nailed it...sorry, pegged it!
Amen! Keep 'em coming!
😂😂😂😂😂! You know it’s not a TedTalk right?! Lol! Lol!

Really...this was incredibly powerful...love needs to fit and when it does...you have this.Thanks for sharing such a moving story.

She’s cute. This channel is great! The “unlikely” love stories are great
Do what makes you happy good story loved the ending and the humor good stuff
Oh my God is the best video in the whole internet
How sad that people just can't be themselves that they need others to validate them like a bikers club, lesbian etc glad I'm not imprisoned by others
How nice for you! Perhaps we can extend a little compassion to those who are less fortunate. Our society can be very unforgiving of those who choose their own way.

@@Geoff31858 or "reasonably well adjusted". There's a bit more to it than this, of course, bur "it's good enough for farm work"
I so like her personality !
Thank you so much for sharing that .......oh the memories
The real real ..... Thanks for sharing
What a great story👏👏
This is so sweet omg!

Awesome story!
Truly amazing! 🖤
Love has a million ways
Johnny Punish you can't call that kind of sickness "love"
@@marioduran3309 LOL! I just did. She said "12 years later. .." That means they are together. I repeat LOVE has a million ways.
.....What a great, profound line.....
Just one week, more please
That was beautiful.
So glad you enjoyed the story! Love comes in all forms.
A week to twelve years! Congratulations!
Yo this is AMAZING!!! 👏👏👏👏
I’m not saying she made the story up but she made it up
Why do you say that? Not arguing, just curious.
Jim Davis did you watch the video
@@fishbonefla5917 I did. Then went on line, found her and Reid, satisfied it is true, but honestly don't give a fuck. Got bigger fish to fry, Fishbone.
Fishbonefla , right! FOH 🙄
Sounds like an assumption to me without facts to back your "opinion" up.
When does she get to the good part?
Just watched again...sweet..dig it!!!
Just watched 3rd time...way out!!❤
She is so very watchable, isn't she? We are so fortunate to have had Allison tell two stories with us. What an incredible person.
Holy shit, I know Reid! Reid Mihalko!
Nooo she is the Alison he mentions about the real estate tour! 😂 Lol, I love them both!

Congratulations you seam so cool
Allison is one of a kind. So glad you enjoyed her story!
I thought I was weird.
I hope someday i find this!!!
Why am I listening to this?
Because you are saturated with choice which paradoxically can be boring.
Because unbeknownst to you your internal self has good taste 🤷♀️
Bravo!
Really love your story and proofs that gay people also have open minds . I would love to meet you in person.
That was hella romantic.
Bay Area whassup?
Actually Funny I’m happy for her
Well that was..........different!
Groovy!❤
If you like oral sex, giving or receiving,it's oral sex, everything else is really psychological.Straight and gay people are programmed in that regard
Great set. Reminds me of a young Bette Midler and just as funny.
Labels Divide
What’s this, stand up comedy or tell all story?
I think the answer is yes.
beautiful.....
These people make things way too complicated and I absolutely do not believe that story fake
Truth!!..some seem more honest..this one seems way more made up..
Not me I wish I had a mate just like you
Really good
She's very good at story telling i actually got turned on .....
In this day and age are men always the ones to blame ?
If this is The new Normal Then I am not normale anymore 😊
Normal is being authentically who you are. Everyone is different. You're doing just fine. 💕
Now I've just learned what pegging is - cheers, Allison, for the education.
Allison is a one-of-a-kind educator and human being. So glad you found her story entertaining and educational!
Too much assumption about men ..put em all under one umbrella ☂
First time I've ever heard the audience laughed a lot
Stepping out on a limb here, but it appears both of you might be bi. Doesnt matter who puts air in the tire as long as you get to ride the bike, huh!
Mark from the Canucks?
WTF
OMG,my hubby just wants to tackle you gently and make you realize how Beautiful you really are but I get to watch,lmfao!
Allison is an incredible person, and no doubt inspires those feelings in many people. ;) If you and your husband are around this Tuesday night, Allison will be one of our Sex/People panelists, livestreaming for free on this channel at 7pm PST. Hope to see you there!
The sexiest story I've ever heard
I can say from experience, lesbians like straight guys. And Straight guys love lesbians. I have been on the other side of the story " your a lesbian".
She is way too wrpped up in.....well, everything.
She talked to much get to the damn point cut it off halfway
blow a strap on? Must be the visual.
I stopped with the strap on request...im out. 😅
Different tastes for different people.

So a hardcore lesbian...really finds that she is is really not....
You asume alot about men dont you
No
Typical lefty comedy. Not in the slightest bit funny.
No one ever said this was a comedy show. This is storytelling.
She’s lying lol
A fun fictional story.
She & her husband are both Very well known, The Camp is still at Buring Man. Their friends tell their version of this story.
So, nope: Truth.
what fucking times we're living eh, so sad, people feeling proud of that kind of sickness... how the fuck some even call it love.... hahaha! I think anybody can do whatever the fuck they please with their body and mind, but feel "so proud" for shit like this. WOW ! we're born as man and woman for a reason.
Why are you here?
Not funny
GARBAGE.
STILL UN FUNNNY
I asked a lesbian couple to give me some pointers . I asked if could be a visual demonstration .
Is this meant to be stand up, a feminist propaganda speech or softcore porn?? Fails in all three unfortunately.
It is one woman's journey. Herstory
