The northernmost California State University, friendly people, great weather (if you like rain), gigantic redwoods ON CAMPUS, great hiking ON CAMPUS, we walk and bike everywhere... we're kind of a bubble here.

Get the glot'almug. princess boy
Little boys who go against traditional male gender roles and who may have an interest in wearing women's clothing and jewelry as children.
Analogous to tomboy and similar to the word "sissy," but meant to be positive and used by people who support how children express themselves. Young children shouldn't be labeled by adults (as straight/queer/cisgender/trans) before they can self-identify.
Coined, perhaps, by author Cheryl Kiladavis in her book, "My Princess Boy".
