Found this in my inbox: 1. What exactly is a Card Carrying Lesbian? 2. What are ALL the different types of lesbians? I wasn’t even sure if this was a legitimate email asking for some advice or some guy being sarcastic. But I decided to go ahead and have a little fun with this. [...]

What is Butch Enough?
My love for all things butch is well documented in the pages of CCL. But that doesn’t mean I understand the layers and complexities of the identity. In fact, the more butches I know, the more I realize, I don’t know diddly. For instance the one thing I will never understand is why butches are [...]
Girl Zero: Chapter 9
In case you forgot where we last left off, you can refresh your memory –> here. I stopped stirring my tea and looked at S. S and Zoe were locked in a silent war of dirty looks. But being well versed in girl warfare I could read it perfectly. They seemed to be daring one [...]

The Lesbian Therapist
I love the way the universe works to connect people sometimes. One day I saw that I had an order for one of my steel pieces from my little CCL store. But I hadn’t set up the checkout correctly and it was just sitting there in limbo. I contacted the client and realized that her [...]

What’s Your Tag Line? Butch? Femme? Gay?
