Super here for “heterosexuality as a myth perpetuated by capitalism,” Gem!
:raises hand: mythical creature who hates pineapple on pizza here! Pepperoni only thanks! (although to be fair, I have a pineapple aversion generally – I can’t even touch a whole fresh one :shudders:)
So if SpongeBob SquarePants invited you ‘round you would decline the invitation?
I just had to google SpongeBob to get what you were referring to! But, the answer is definitely a refusal!
I have this real aversion to textures when it comes to fruit – I hate kiwi fruit as well because of their fuzziness.
So apparently if I want to write erotic/romantic fiction to appeal to a certain portion of AS readers, it needs to be something like…
“I gasped. There she sat. I’d never seen her before, but I knew she was The One. Hair cut to just above shoulder length, she lounged elegantly sideways in her chair, nibbling the pineapple suggestively off her pizza. She raised an eyebrow at my gobsmacked expression. ‘Can I…can I bi you another slice?’ I hazarded.
“‘No,’ she said, but at the crust-fallen look on my face, relented. ‘But perhaps you’d care to recline upside-down in this chair next to me and tell me about your small dog.'”
Woo woo!
I’d one-click that bi romance!
I was being silly, but honestly I’ve purchased a lot of bi romances based on less promising blurbs than that, so I think you’re on to something.
Hmm. Well then. I had been thinking to conclude with “…and I promise not to quit my day job,” but perhaps I should rethink. ;)
How many readers just fell off their barely-perched-upon chairs reading that?
This is amazing. I lost it at “can I bi you another slice” hehehehe
I love you too QG
and I miss the time when the Comment Awards were published earlier in the day. I could participate more then. Those were the days… @floralprintdress
Hard agree on wanting CA back earlier again @floralprintdress please please what would it take?
OMG. I won the Cara Mia award! *dances the Mamushka*
That really makes my whole week :)
Honestly here for female Gomez Addams’….actually an entire queer female/nb Addams family portrait would make my over-dramatic heart go pitter-patter-splatter * siiiigh *
Right? I saw my quote about the chair thing on the front page and I was like whoa I’m famous! Gotta put these comment awards on my c.v. Huzzah to all the other comment award winners and the AS writers whose work inspired us. :)
Thank you QG, as always. I had no idea how much I’d missed this week on AS. Working in a busy office has cut down significantly on my AS reading. (But having more structure has significantly improved my mental health, so I’m not too mad.)
And OMG, that bi chair link!?!
I’m bi and here I am, sitting cross legged on the couch.
I have never, ever thought of myself as not being able to chair though. I guess I just assumed everyone sits like this. Even though I haven’t observed it. Hmmm. Much like 14 year old me assumed that all of my female friends must be checking out the girls’ butts as well as the boys and just not talking about it.
Thanks for the award qg!
The closest I’ve ever come to writing any social media profile tbh.
Aaaaah my first comment award! Is this what fame feels like?
Can’t sit won’t sit
If it fits, bi won’t sits
I was gunna reply Iarrann Mé’s comment with this one time I talk about too much on here about how my little shit teen self was censured about the open legged way I was sitting(still sit) and in response I spread my legs as far as my hypermobile-quit-ballet only a couple months ago self could in that chair.
It was one of those waiting room style chairs so it was pretty much a spit with bent knees looped over the arms. Any time I’m in “deeply practical men’s pants” I feel the aura of that power move the little shit 14 year old me was.
If there hadn’t been any adults in the room I might have given her a double barrel bird posed from between my legs.
Anyway my “abnormal sitting” went queer as in fuck you direction for a formative moment once in my teenhood.
I think I keep talking about it because the idea that my legs not being closed being viewed some kind of obscene, a permanent sexual connotation made me confrontationally angry as puberty began and I spent less time in the ballet world and more time in mixed sex spaces at school.
Like I felt breasts were claimed by the world and could never belong to me, HOW DARE they try to take legs from me too. Fuck that nah uh.
I’m with the wordy reflective thoughts this evening. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hi Lex, I’m decades older than you but remember the same feelings and I’m pleased to remember, the same result with a similar chair. Gee, that went over well in the early sixties.
I’d do it again now if I could still stretch my hips that far. Thanks to ballet though, I can still almost get there.
High five and if you were my grandmother I would call you Gam-Gam.
Cause you got some damn gams.
If I were your Grandma, I’d be very proud.
Flexible, too of course.
I love this.
Hey all,
Spectacularly late with my grateful acknowledgement of QG’s impeccable awards show. Thanks to all of the Straddlers, your separate and collective splendour never ceases to amaze and inspire me.
LOL can you just imagine if these were actual awards ? That we had to “sit” in an amphitheatre for ? AND get called out for ? I’m here for Femme Daddy ushers.
HELLO DOVES I WAS OUT OF TOWN FOR THE WEEKEND BUT I WANTED TO SAY THAT I SEE AND LOVE ALL YOUR COMMENTS AS ALWAYS <3 <3 <3
