<p>Haha, sorry. I thought I was on the Davis forums for a second…
Still, I wouldn’t be too worried.</p>
<p>just hope they aren’t mormon or bible hugging crazies you should be fine, UCLA is the **** I feel like it is a really liberal campus people are open minded in LA in general</p>
<p>non-issue, unless you make it one</p>
<p>Maybe you could post a thread in the UCLA forums looking for other bi/lesbian girls to be roomies with. </p>
<p>Even if your room mates are homophobic it probably will not be so bad because most of your time will probably be spent in places other than the dorms.</p>
<p>you’re a bisexual girl…</p>
<p>if you were a bisexual guy, you might be judged.</p>
<p>your biggest concern should be that your roomates(if male) might try to get some threesome action.</p>
<p>if I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but simply put, the reason why guys are judged is because apparently we’re capable of rape and want sex more. Girls… ehh not so much. ohh also because masculinity is apparently tied to how many females you’ve coerced…</p>
<p>again you shouldn’t have to worry A TON.</p>
<p>I keep reading people stating in this thread and in others that people should look for roommates. If you’re living on campus at UCLA, and roommate selection wasn’t the main criteria in which you wanted to have your housing assigned, isn’t it out of your hands at this point?</p>
<p>Before you do anything let your roommates know. Dont do it like in the movies where the roommates find out you are having a 3some with a girl and a guy.</p>
<p>^^^ actually, that’s exactly how you should do it.
exactly.</p>
<p>@ evan i think you can still update ur app to put in a UCLA ID number for a roommate…but i would recmmend to only do that with someone as the asme housing offer as you</p>
<p>Gosh I don’t think you should go as far as to look for all lesbian/bi-sexual roommates. Way to close yourself off to the rest of the social world. I’m sure everything will be fine</p>
<p>@ucla bound: you might be relieved to know that there are quite a few ucla professors who are gay/lesbian living in the on-campus community, at least one of whom is a representative of the LGBT association and has written several books pertaining to bi/homosexuality. also, if you’re living in vista, i know that one professor, Dr Presner, lives there with his partner who is also works with students at ucla. i think you will find a very accepting community, and if not, you have these high ranking officials to back you up.</p>
<p>uclabound… I would think most people would be accepting… of course you can run into people who make a bigger deal of it than it is but yes that is the chance you take living on campus. :P) Personally I could not care less what my roommates do unless of course they are inappropriate etc. not respecting our “shared” space… but that goes the same w/ having a g/f or b/f… </p>
<p>evan - I read that you can fill out a CAR & request the same roommate as long as they are in your same building… CAR’s are due July 20.?</p>
<p>Oh, alright. Well, shucks. No one is in Rieber Vista! Damn!</p>
<p>@xelink: Yeah, but there are girls who would still feel uncomfortable having someone they perceive as gay or bi in a living situation. Think sheltered kids from the midwest. I grew up with these kids.</p>
<p>I understand OP’s concern. I’m still inclined to say it’s none of the roomies’ business, but I agree with previous posters to just get it out in the open and let the roomies know in the interest of maintaining an open atmosphere with no surprises. If they can’t handle it though, then that’s their problem.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p><em>rolls eyes</em></p>
<p>thanks everyone for the responses. Personally Im just going to wait for aug till I get my roommates information and tell them whats up. Although its true its none of there business I rather have it out and in the open then to wait till they find out on their own through someone else. I did this before and people found out through other people and talk about awkwardness. So once the info is out im letting the cat out of the bag i dont want another repeat.</p>
<p>i have triple shared in rieber vista too and i wouldn’t mind you as my roommate, although gay PDAs do make me more uncomfortable than straight PDAs you seem kinda shy so i’m not worried about that</p>
<p>Sorry I’m too lazy to go back and read everyone’s comments.</p>
<p>I would say that unless your roommates are homophobic there should be nooo problems.</p>
<p>If you think it will make them uncomfortable you don’t have to tell them until it becomes relevant, like you have a girlfriend or something. </p>
<p>If you do feel the need to tell them you can explain that just because you like girls doesn’t mean youll be hitting on them.</p>
<p>They should be understanding.</p>
<p>“a lot of people are still closed minded and afraid of things they don’t understand”</p>
<p>LOL, that comment is so ironic. i wouldnt want to live with a bisexual person and no i’m not a closed minded person. i simply am just not as comfortable as I wish to be.<br>
but to the OP, have you found out your roomates? Maybe you could contact them before hand.</p>
