and in response to a question about the role of queer women of color a white dyke said: "when you turn out the lights it's all the same."
And everyone laughed in agreement and moved on.

Does anyone have a reaction they would care to share about this?

thank you

Hi, deeper.

I know, for some folks, color doesn't matter. Really and truly. Those folks, however, are far and few in between the rest of us.

Color absolutely matters, in every way, in the light or the dark.

I can see how perhaps that person meant it...in that, if you are fucking someone you are fucking them, regardless of their color. I suppose that's how they meant it. Not knowing them and not being there in the moment puts me at a disadvantage though.
