100 Pictures of Shane

Posted byriese

on April 14, 2011

Sometimes you just want 100 pictures of Shane.

All photos are from my hard drive, though I imagine a lot of those come from this kate moennig fansite.

Some may see this as just a superfluous, uneducational post because it’s just a bunch of photos…but I learned that Kate Moennig can make smoke rings…so.

  Knowing how to blow smoke rings, knowing how to change a diaper, knowing how to shoot a gun… these are essential life skills.

    yeah? good to know. 2 out of 3 isn’t so bad right?

      2 out of 3 is probably better, because then you can invite Kate Moennig over to teach you the third

      There is precedent for at least homosexy subtext in gun shooting and we all know what blowblacks slash smoking can lead to, so I hereby proposing that Kate Moennig come over and teach me how to diaper a baby. A baby that sleeps very soundly.

      I can’t blow smoke rings as well as Kate. Like, it could never get captured via photo ala #62.
      
      At least now I know why my life feels so incomplete.
      
      THIS ARTICLE IS SO SO EDUCATIONAL.

I’m actually getting ready to get my hair cut like her’s. Its going to be a huge change but I’ve been wearing my hair the same way for 5 years. I’ve been unsure if I wanted to do it or not but I’ll take this post as a sign from the lesbian Gods to do it. =)

this is has come at a particularly relevant time for me.. been catching up on the L word in the last few months, never really got the Shane thing before but started crushing on her bad about halfway through season 5 (now just have a few eps left of s6, woot). cue 2+ hours of typing ‘kate moennig’ into youtube and watching all the random CSI, 3 rivers, young americans.. sigh.
so, yay for pictures!

Of all the things to love about this post, I would like to thank Riese in particular for including a Young Americans pic! Kate, I’ve loved you since way before you had your hair cut seventeen different ways of Shane.

I am more attracted to the Tina Fey kind of girl more than the the cool, hip kind of girl like Shane. But I have always found Shane really attractive in some primal, animal way. It was a little eye-opening to me that I recognize most of these pictures…clearly there is something in her that really catches my eye…

Um…in a few of these pictures she totally looks like my ex-boyfriend. Probably should have realised I was a homo sooner given that I only liked boys who looked like lesbians.

  I realized I was a homo when it suddenly dawned on me that all the guys I’ve dated/liked looked like girls.

i never felt any sexual attraction to shane.

i mean, i GET IT…but I’ve just never felt it. I’m cool with that…

I was way more of a Carmen girl…and then it was all about Alice…and then surprisingly, I developed a thing for Tasha.

  well it was exactly the opposite for me
  i never got the appeal people have for carmen – she was too standard beauty, playboy kind of style and so obviously straight
  but i actualy got hooked for this series because of characters like shane – realy presenting the lesbians, kate moenning just plyed her character in the most believable way, you realy can feel that this person- shane actualy can exsist ))

I tried to watch the L Word for Shane, but mostly I just wanted her to stop slouching and wash her hair. And Jenny made my skin crawl, so while I liked Bettina and Alice and Dana and the soup chef, I stopped pretty quick. But Kate Moenig’s hands!!! Holy fuck!!! Especially in the top left pic of #83/veryshane, with her hand up near her mouth…. jfc. I may have to give the L Word another chance, and I definitely am not going to feel like my large-for-a-women hands are not sexy ever again.

Yes, sometimes you *do* just need 100 pictures of Shane. Like right now! I needed it right now! How did you know?

I have the houseguests from hell who WILL NOT LEAVE (seriously, they’re going to be staying a week longer than they were supposed to, and that’s assuming they actually leave on Monday which is looking iffy) and I was about ready to open a vein, but how can I do that when there are 100 pictures of Shane to look at? I can’t! It’s Shane!

    The worst part is, they’re family so I can’t just, y’know, call the sheriff and tell them there are crazy people squatting in my house!
    
    But when there are 100 pictures of Shane to look at, that stuff just fades into the background

I don’t care if this is pageview pandering or what (does it count as more pageviews with those popovers?), I’m excited. Still not a single haircut I’d call good though

thanks for this:)) it is great:)
i also like to collect pics of artist that i like but not as a fetish just for fun and for a keepsake.
but 100 pics of shane is not just showing a crush on somebody for me. i like the post, because i think this was realy original and exciting character that you don’t see a lot on tv and pushed a lot of boundaries in my perseption of the world. i guess i have to thank kate moenning for playing her so good.

  uff i realy didn’t looked at the pics before posting my comment so i have to correct myself: these are actually 100 pics of kate moennning not shane but still i think it is great to have a reminder of this talented actress who we see rarely these days on screen which is such a pity. i like actors who are bold and can present characters who are not conventional and kate does it very well.:))

I’m adding this page to my internet favorites so that Shane’s only a click away, in ways more than one.
