Someday, I’ll live in a world where the ass-kicking heroine is gay, but it isn’t what makes her awesome or unique. She’s awesome and unique because she’s awesome and unique, not because she likes chicks. View

    I’ve never had an issue with paper creating a crazy amount of smoke. I think leaves create more smoke than newspaper. And while I agree about the poison ivy, it’s never been much of an issue for me.

    Dear Miss Anon,

    I’m really happy for you here. You clearly know exactly how to define the sexuality of all people across the board. That’s pretty handy. I wish I knew how to do that. Maybe I wouldn’t spend so […]

    Immensely satisfying! Except that I’d never drink red wine at a Trampled by Turtles concert. I’d drink a frothy beer, whatever’s local. And I’d drink a LOT of it. :D However, their choice for Devil Makes Three is […]

    Wait, so…

    I can’t actually write on the calendar?

    Do people not do that anymore? I live in the woods. We don’t have iPads and eBooks and all of that “wireless” stuff. I need a real calendar. *whimper*

    I love jeans. I work outside. I wear only two pairs of pants, ever: my jeans or a pair of Columbia tech pants. Mostly its the jeans. Yay! Thanks for the awesome queer fat girl guide, but could you maybe also do one for queer fat girls that aren’t femme? Like moi? Shopping for boy [...]

    A young woman suggested a lavender marriage to me yesterday. It baffles me that anyone thinks this is a good idea. Why would I want to put on a show for anybody? What’s the point?

    ataventure commented on the blog post On Display: Navigating the Male Gaze As A Lesbian Trans Woman 1 year, 8 months ago

    A good friend of mine (a man) will do the staring thing from time to time. But it was never me that noticed it. A female friend of mine (she’s straight–but does that make a difference? IDK) would always tell me that he stares across the bar at women and it’s weird. But I never [...]

    ataventure commented on the blog post On Display: Navigating the Male Gaze As A Lesbian Trans Woman 1 year, 8 months ago

    I agree completely. When I was still riding the bisexual train and interested in attracting men, my self-esteem was entirely dependent on whether a man noticed me. I went out of my way (and my comfort zone!) to dress femme in order to be noticed. Even now though, as a lesbian and a comfortable-in-her-own-skin lesbian [...]
