I adore women. Admittedly, thats a qualifying criteria in order to be Lesbian, sure! But I really adore them. I like men, even really love some of them. But women are fascinating. Yet, while some of us may lament the fact that we suffer many a straight crush and very few a lesbian-chance-in-hell-of-finding-out-your-straight-crush-is-really-gay-and-live-happily-ever-after stories, If we were to keep aside our libidos for just a minute we may enjoy ALL if not most of our experiences/interactions with women. Enough to put a big grin on our faces and ride out the rest of the day. Now, this may appear to be a consolation or reassurance for a very lonely, very single Lesbian in a city with many queer Queer People and no one just for her.
Darn, You are onto me.
But given that we all fall in (unrequited) love with straight friends, we all deal with constant harassment about marriage from the well-meaning folks, some enter into MoCs, we all for the most part are oh so slightly apprehensive of the American Queer girl club/bar scene , we all feel that distinct discomfort when we make gender neutral statements, we all bawled on 2-July-09, we all think sarees on other women look better than sarees on ourselves, we all secretly read Lesbian fan fiction because they seem truer than our lives and we all love Claire Forlani Women, we may as well enjoy ALL our interactions with them instead of the very few/almost none that we are allowed to take to where we want it to go.
Well, I plan to go out this weekend and have a rollicking good time. Who knows ? Maybe I will meet someone not-so-straight and great.
Let me know if you do.
