Trick…(Halloween Pt 3)

Start the night. The squat Latina angel flounced in, her white leotard hugging every curve and white tulle skirt barely covering her spandex bottoms. Not a good  look for her, I thought, quietly bemoaning the loss of the tomboy who greeted me at the door. It was picture time, and I posed with the ladies. [...]

Butch For A Femme

 Part 2 of Too Many Dudes. She changed into a thigh-length flowered dress and heals. I stood watching her primp her artificial locks in the mirror, thinking how much work a wig is. I mean, sure it looks good, but I’ll bet her natural hair would look good too.  Of course, I thought–tracing the curve [...]

That Kiss

When I was in High School I was very involved with the gay community: the GSA was my social life, I was in the Governors Commission for gay & lesbian youth, etc…but over the years of living on the streets & then  raising children, I lost touch with the gay community. At first it didn’t [...]

A Butch in Queer Space

I looked up from fixing my laces into the wide-open smile of a tall heavyset, “sporty”  woman. Unused to such enthusiasm from total strangers, (especially butch strangers) she was gone before my returning smile reached my eyes. Why was she smiling at me? Because I was wearing a tie. And suspenders. Over a wife-beater with [...]

Why We March

The Closet Sucks! I just want to scream every time I hear about how someone doesn’t care what I do, as long as I don’t “rub it in their face.” So what exactly is rubbing it in your face? Mentioning my girlfriend? Commenting that I went to a lesbian club last night? Unless you’re reading [...]

Young Stud

DZ from Studology 101: “You know you are a lesbian when you are physically, mentally and emotionally attracted to another woman.”

Between the Lines

I was waiting in the clinic with my daughter amidst a miasma of coughing, praying I didn’t catch whatever they all had, when an older Butch struck up a conversation with me. She was there with her daughter.  (I’m guessing the girl was adopted, she was Asian, I’m guessing Thai, Vietnamese or maybe Cambodian, while [...]

My Awakening Part 1

I got my period for the first time at a Lesbian music festival. I was eleven. My mom decided to let me get my ears pierced in honor of my the few spots of blood in my panties marking my incipient womanhood. A gorgeous butch with sparkling blue eyes held my hands while her partner [...]

You Might Be A Lesbian If…

While kissing your boyfriend you keep thinking of how his mouth reminds you of eating pussy. After your boyfriend goes down on you you barely think about it the next day except to kind-of wish he hadn’t–but when a woman kisses you that night for less than three minutes you can’t stop thinking about her [...]

Coming Out in the 21st Century
