OCTOBER 26 . 2002 • Q-NOTES 41 Beauty: Fight it or find it within yourself Dearest Trinity, I am so sick of the beautiful people getting all the attention. Don’t you think that all this importance with beauty and sex appeal is making life to competitive? Beauty Sick Minneapolis, MN Dearest Sick, Sorry to burst your competitive bubble but beauty will always be in style, always rule the world and always be around to turn heads, sell products and make everyone else feel like chopped liver. If you want to get some attention (as everyone does) then create some appeal for yourself. Making the most of what you have is actually quite natural. Peacocks, cats, even snakes and spiders do it. Everything from monkeys to Marilyn Monroe uses or used beauty and sex appeal to compete, to get noticed and to get a mate. So don’t fight beauty; rather, find the beauty within yourself and work it! Hey Trinity, Why are straight men so straight? Don’t you think if straight men hung around gay men more often they would learn a thing or two about politeness, culture and even decorating? Straight Thoughts New Orleans, LA Hey Thoughts, If straight men hung around gay men they would definitely learn a lot. But as far as teaching straight men to be interested in the arts or decorating I don’t know if you can teach just any ole straight man that!

So good luck and here are: Trinity's Tips For How To Leave A Bad Situation or Run Away (.Don’t leave broke, if you save some money first, you will be able to buy more time away and go further. 2. Get a cell phone. It makes traveling much easier. And get a PO box to collect and forward your mail. 3. Think laundry. The more you take the more you have to carry. Laundry once a week means you can travel light and travel right. 4. In the winter go south. In the summer go north. 5. Paying all your bills off first or a few months in advance means you will be really free for a : while. 6. Leaving when no one is around gives you a lot more time and peace than running away on the spur of the moment. 7. Going to places where you know someone makes it a lot easier to stay away and start a new life, unless you have to go to an anonymous destination. 8. Leaving a note that says, “I’m leaving don’t bother coming to find me." It’ll prove to everyone, especially the police, that you haven’t been kidnapped and need to be brought back. 9. As you are leaving, keep breathing, think good positive thoughts and shut the stove off. 10. Lastly, everyone runs away for different reasons. Remember, your problems always come with you so get clean, emotionally and/or financially, as soon as you can.
