People here have strange ideas about things. They are friends with anyone, male with female, young with old, etc. They actually just like talking with each other about things like current events, politics, etc. And anyone can have any opinion they want as long as you are willing to listen to another point of view and defend your position. But what is really cool is that even if you are a WOMAN, you can have an opinion and ideas and men will actually listen to you.
So even though I have struggled to make friends here, I haven't really felt as alone because I have been accepted for who I really am, not for the persona of the "perfect southern lady".
Of course, a place that publishes a weekly like the "Stranger" would be expected to have people with "strange" ideas :-).
