This whole men-posing-as-lesbian-bloggers thing has filled me with such a deep, burning rage that I had to rant: http://buzzcutsandbustiers.com/2011/06/14/i-solemnly-swear-that-i-am-a-real-live-dyke/

Hey, I just commented this on Annika and Sebastian’s recent post, but maybe y’all have some ideas: What do you think is the best way to respond to transphobic harassment? I’m butch/genderqueer and have heard “are you a guy” or “is that a boy or a girl” from strangers several times recently, and I always struggle with how or if to respond.…[Read more]
-
Fellow Bostonian butch here! I don’t really have advice, but I do have empathy, as I encountered a situation like this during Pride this year. I was told by a transwoman “if you ever decide to actually transition into being a man instead of just dressing like one, you’ll find that life is harder.” It was so dismissive and assuming and generally…[Read more]
-
Yeah, that’s generally how I responded to sexual harassment as a teenager, back when I was still trying to pass as feminine, and it’s honestly my instinctive response to any kind of aggressive harassment. Because you’re right, people tend to back off if you fight back–usually even a firm “fuck you” is enough.
But sometimes I just get kinda…[Read more]

How did it go ladies? I’m upset couldn’t be there :(
-
It was fun. I thought you were going to show so we waited for you for a bit. Next time ;)
-
Things we established:
1) Check out Effing Dykes’ hilarious blog: http://effingdykes.blogspot.com/
2) Watch Planet Earth the TV series
3) Watch Chocolate (2008)I find it weird to go from seeing real people to internet avatars. It’s as if Zoso is an animagus-kitty-hipster.
-
hahaha maaayybe I aaaaaam….
and yay thanks for posting the link!
-
I’ve got 1 & 2 covered! And Chocolate looks AMAZING. What did you end up doing? Did you leave Sneaky Dee’s?
-
Sneaky Dee’s was loud. We waited a bit in case more people came then the three of us walked around and settled on Cloak and Dagger for a drink. After, we went to a dumpling place on Spadina. Then we walked around the Entertainment District. We stumbled upon this event where people were throwing balls toward a screen/wall. We got free stress balls…[Read more]

Chocolate IS amazing. girls kickin ass = hot :)
-
I finished watching it. WHOA! It’s pretty funny to see a man run away from a girl. Wuss!
-
:D Glad you liked it. Another movie by Tony Jaa with an asskicking girl in it is Raging Phoenix (2009) but I didn’t like the storyline as much as Chocolate.
-

-
Is that called an animakipster?
-
Animakipster sounds like an iPhone photo app that turns humans into animal hipsters, like Hipstamatic. :D
Watching the end credits for Chocolate made me feel bad for enjoying fight scenes at the expense of actors getting hurt. Dunno if I can watch Raging Phoenix… Jackie Chan has said he has a hard time getting insurance for his movies because…[Read more]

Is it okay with everyone if we move the meetup time to 7? I have a last minute emergency at work I need to take care of tomorrow. Or I will just be really, really late. lol :P
-
Any time is fine with me. I will check the group details tomorrow morning before heading to Toronto.
Or there could be 2 meet-ups tomorrow, haha.
Anyway, I have an Autostraddle sticker on my bag and I’ll probably be wearing my black Next To Normal hat. (People go watch that musical!)
Toodle-oo-
K I’ll be there at 7 with a blue shirt that has a penguin piano on it. lol Ihttp://media.threadless.com//imgs/products/2251/636x460design_01.jpg

Are we still meeting at 4?
That seemed to be the consensus earlier, but is it too early for Sneaky Dee’s?
Or we could just start getting our drink on early in the day..
What do you think?-
later is fine too. originally i thought we’d be getting coffee and then wandering around, but we’ve changed plans since then, so. 6? 7?
-
It’s supposed to rain so wandering outside wouldn’t be ideal. :-/
I was hoping internet people would be more Tron-like. :-P
-
Glowing bodysuits? I’d pass on those but the bikes, those I could get into :D
-
And rain, blech. It only rains when I don’t want it to, apparently. Could have used some rain this week when I was working outside… haha
-
-
-
So, 2 people prefer 7.
Are you or anyone else going to be there at 4?
I don’t want to go at 4 and nobody is there…

I went to a queer fashion show on Wednesday and there were some really great designers there that are making masculine clothing for female and FTM bodies. Marimacho was my fave of the night. Here’s a list of the designers and my reviews of them:…[Read more]
