By guest blogger, Raye Many butches are not used to someone wanting them. It throws them off. You femmes don’t realize how rare a butch-loving femme really is. All you see is that you can’t find any butches and you notice all the femmes in competition with you for one. Oddly enough this is [...]

How To Flirt with a Butchie
By Guest Butch, Raye I have always hated dating. Even when I was newly out and in my twenties, I liked the attention I got from women but I was terrified to ask women out. I think it stems from the fact that when I did get bold enough (or drunk enough) to hit on [...]
Left Behind
By guest blogger, WWG This blog post is going to get me into miles of trouble. I know this in my heart before I even send it to Sasha. I wrote something similar previously and then rescinded it. But I need to get it out there. And I’ve thickened my skin to take on whatever [...]
Presumed Straight
By Guest Blogger, WWG It started with a comment on a facebook status. It moved to facebook chat. Then, when facebook chat no longer worked, it moved to gchat. It was a pleasant and lovely conversation with a former classmate, who I knew starting in elementary school. We won’t go into how weird I find [...]
The Slope: Superficial, Homophobic Lesbians
It’s that time again! When I introduce to you some freaking amazing lesbian artists and you run out and support them in whatever creative way you can think of. Are you ready? OK GO!!! I get emails all the time from lesbian artists wanting me to write about them. But sadly, I’m a snob and [...]
Free Femme Pass?
I recently had a conversation with Remi about jealousy. It seems that I’m the more jealous one in this relationship. Which I hate with a passion. I’m not used to that! I used to hardly ever be jealous and when I was, I was able to hide it. Usually I hid it with little acts [...]
Little Red Buckets of Hate
Facebook conversations sometimes roll over into real life and this is one of those times. A friend posted this article and I shared it. It’s about NOT giving money to the Salvation Army this Holiday season because they are homophobic, have denied help to the LGBT in need, and actively funnel money into the Religious [...]
The tale of two toddlers.
Who knew that these two little girls would grow up, meet and fall in love one day!? I finally got a baby picture of Remi (she’s the blond cutie pie of course.) And I had to share. I can’t help but think how fantastic kismet is. At the time the picture of me was taken, [...]
…And we shall be dangerous.
So my 66 days to a new life without insomnia and late mornings has recently hit a bump in the road. I was doing great, until yesterday. Had a pretty emotional day with my mother and that bad mojo carried over to Remi. After a day of fighting with the women in my life, I [...]
Almost Becoming a Dominatrix
Who here, hasn’t thought about becoming a professional dominatrix at some point in there life? I mean really. To me it has always sounded like a viable option for me, career wise. My first experience with this was when I was in college. I was barely 21, working as a dancer here in LA when [...]
Femmes With Tatts
Lana just got a three-quarter sleeve as her FIRST tattoo!!! When she first told me that she wanted her first tattoo to be almost her entire arm, I sort of freaked out. I mean, I love tattoos and I love them on chicks. But Lana is one of my besties and like me, she didn’t [...]
66 Days of Badly Mixed Metaphors
According to various googable sources, it takes 66 days, or there about, to form a new habit. As most of you know, I am a hopeless insomniac. Insomnia is like my arch nemesis that always wins! It’s like that mean girl in high school that was thinner then I was, more popular, faster and on [...]
The History Of Marriage
As a great follow up to Down with DOMA, WWG sent me this video. Al Franken Fact Checks Chuck Grassley: Marriage Has Evolved Over Time This morning, in a vote of 10 to 8, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved the Respect for Marriage Act, which would repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and allow [...]
Down With DOMA
Three years ago when Prop 8 was passed, it broke my heart. Little did I know that a mere two years later would find me married to the love of my life. Married? OK, Domestic Partners. But to us, it’s a marriage. As we move forward with our lives together, DOMA, Prop 8 and other [...]
Long Beach’s first openly lesbian pageant contestant
So actually, you can thank Rexie for showing this to me. And when I opened the link and saw this hot lesbian with spiky hair and tatts, I was like, “Suh-weeet!” Then to find out she’s the first openly gay woman in a Long Beach Beauty pageant!? Well …. it’s about time!!!! I think women [...]
