Please note Daddy Max's album cover in this video!!



I have been deep in nostalgia lately!

Hmm, considering what would happen if I were to actually leap??
but definitely les :)

*waves to all*

LOL! I LOVE IT

*Smiling* Still, 18 years later, out and proud lesbian :) (and I'm not afraid to leap either!! Just as long as everyone moves safely out of the way first!) ;)

I was wondering where all the lesbians were. Wish there were a few more. And, I'm not sure where they all went. There used to be lots of 'em. :|

And, yep, I came out as a lesbian at 19 still proud to be a big ole butch one. :)

I just wanted to remember one of the Leaping Lesbians who began in 1945 writing and serving for the lgbtq community. She wrote the very first lesbian magazine ( even before " The Ladder" ) call " Vice Versa"...She also helped in writing The Ladder.

The link below show this as well as more info of what she has done.

Black Lesbians Matter

“Black Lesbian Matters,” report is a quantitative study on the Black lesbian community. The creation of this report was a year long process of developing the survey, conducting focus groups, and finally writing the report. This report, “Black Lesbians Matter,” is an examination of the unique experiences, perspectives, and priorities for the Black Lesbian Community, and has been our most rewarding accomplishment as of yet. The report focuses on five key priorities: Aging, Health, Identity, Family, and Invisibility. We thank all the contributors and funders that made this study come to life.

Francine Ramsey, Executive Director of Zuna Institute says, "This report is the result of year long process, and will lay the foundation for constructive dialog and the creation of an effective collection of strategies that will address the needs of the Black Lesbian community."

Report Published in July 2010

Butch lesbian:aslpeacelove:

I have been an Out Lesbian for 27 years....though I enjoy the term Dyke more than "Lesbian".

I have, however, never been into most "Women's" music...and my knees preclude leaping today...and most days.

I'm still here and as Lesbian as ever!

Not feeling it too much culturally these days either. Not sure why. Maybe cause i can't leap anymore either. ;)

But, of course, i am a big ole lesbo.

Went to see Tret Fure last weekend. We have a pretty active folk scene around here, so we see woman like Holly Near and Cris Williamson every year or so. It's a treat. Last week's performance brought out about 100 women, mostly over 50, but some younger, which was nice. It was a really good show, but I could feel how tired she was. I, for one, love being out among "the lesbians." I feel like I'm at home with my people. Corny as that sounds. :)

Big ole GRATEFUL lesbian here. I had a serious accident last month and my communities of mostly lesbian, mostly biker friends rallied to support me in ways that made my head spin. When they ask me what I need I keep saying that all my needs have been met before I know I have them.

This is the lesbian community at it's best. Just like we imagined it. No, this isn't the narcotics talking. I may have been premature, but I already stopped taking them. Lesbians rock.

Big ole is pushing it, talking about you! Wishing you the very best! What a great testimonial!

I love my lesbians.

Me too, but this leaping thing has gotten me into trouble :confused:
