Twin Cities Straddlers 11 years, 9 months agoAnyone got recommendations for good lesbian bars/queer bars that aren’t entirely guys in the Cities? I need a few new ones.
-
The Town House on University in St.Paul is great. They have good cheapie nights, $5 for cover but only $1 for a drink. Great times! Also, Lush. But thats usually for the “younger” crowd…not sure which one you fit into but check both out.
-
Yeah, the townhouse is pretty good. go there! Lush has ladies night on fridays. And Hell’s Kitchen has been having Soul Friday on the first friday of the month, it’s a queer dance night. lotssss of ladies.

Hey fellow Chitowners… Anyone know of a great hairstylist in the area? I went and got my hurrr did, but my usual girl really butchered it. I just need a wee bit of a trim, and some evening out… I suppose I could just deal with it, and wait the whole two weeks for it to grow into something more manageable, but still… I need a new hairstylist.…[Read more]

I’m going to tel aviv university (international school) next semester. I’m so excited, and I hear tel aviv is the gay capital of the middle east or something. Any advice? good places to go.things to do? anyone else live in tel aviv?
-
I’ve been to Tel Aviv twice, and I had the best falafel ever at this place by the beach near the Opera Tower. If you’re facing the water, the Opera Tower (I think that’s what it is called?) is to your right, and then there’s a fountain in the middle, and to the left there’s really good falafel and also really good ice cream. Sorry this was not…[Read more]

I just saw this… I studied abroad at Tel Aviv University last semester. Are you there now Alex? I’m still living in Israel but left Tel Aviv University because the American students I encountered were not such a fan of my lesbianness (yeah that’s a word…)

I agree with Marika. Not only are my cool friends in Chicago going to FKA on NYE, but I have friends coming from Milwaukee, Madison, and Minneapolis! Buy your tix ahead of time online!

I am reading Eating Animals by Johnathan Safran Foer at the moment, and I feel so sad and so alone. Others, like my friends, don’t understand my values and priorities, and this book is so haunting with its truths about suffering and all the things that are wrong with the bioindustry. Does this feel familiar? What do you do when you feel like this?…[Read more]
-
i have had this book for a year or so now and still haven’t read it, but i know where you’re coming from. i tried bringing it up in conversation to no avail. no one wants to hear that what they eat is bad in so many ways that you don’t have enough fingers to count them on. i’ve just learned to let it go, but do find my self spewing out info every…[Read more]

I feel like this sometimes. Here’s my advice (it has REALLY helped me a lot): 1. Listen to vegan podcasts. I recommend “Vegetarian Food for Thought” and “Our Hen House.” They are both really wonderful for different reasons, and they give me a lot of hope. VFfT has different episodes for each subject, and there are a few on what you’re talking…[Read more]
-
Oh, and I meant vegan and/or vegetarian for all of these tips. I just realized I typed “vegan” for everything, but I definitely meant both! lol it’s because I have a vegan blog and stuff, so I’m just so much more used to that word.
-
Thanks Cathy! Have you got any tips as to how I find out about vegan meetups in the area? (I live in Europe, so it might be different from the US.)
-
Hi! Sorry it took me so long to respond – I don’t get emails from autostraddle for some reason…
Anyway, do you have Facebook? I would start there… Also, google to see when the next Vegetarian Food Festival is in your area…. they have one in most major cities at least once a year, and you’re likely to meet members of groups you can link up…[Read more]
