Good morning fellow dykes and lez sisters!
I not only love biceps but abs and that "V" that most of us never get.
That V-shape on the lower abdomen that very lean body mass folks get that points down to the golden triangle of love... Pink had it for a while before she had her baby.

I claim lesbian been one all my life. Most of my life I been attracted to stone butches,butches, i even had mad crushes on femmes when I was younger. I'm just me. As I get older I appreciate all people. But I would have to say proudly Iam a LESBIAN.

Bringing this back up with a bigger font
Btw, Elsie Publishing Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Currently, Ambitious Amazons is updating their Contact Dyke listing. If you want to be added to their list, do it before November 30. I am on their CD List Lesbian Connection, aka LC, is a magazine I have subscribed to for years. It arrives quarterly in my mailbox in an indiscreet manila envelope! It is a quick read with only 50 pages. They are reprinting the series "Dykes to Watch out For" The subscription fee is sliding scale free to anyone world wide and $42 suggested donation. Donations and gift subscriptions are appreciated! I am not on the staff, I am just worried that without support, this little rag will vanish as has the woman's bookstores that use to be. Elsie Publishing EPI PO Box 811 East Lansing, Mi 48826 (517)371-5257 (M-F) noon- 6pm ET elsiepub@aol.com www.LConline.org

I remember how many publications there were when I first came out that are now defunct. Lesbian Tide, Lesbian News, On Our Backs (one of my personal favorites, ahem...) I made a contribution to the Connection. Thanks for the reminder.

Great! I just visited the website for the 1st time. I see they take Paypal! I always look for the plain envelope. I don't know how they have made it, I am glad they have and that they still will send it free to anyone unable to afford the donation....Anywhere in the world, I think. Now that is a community service.

Man, the memories that just produced ..... the DJ knew me and whenever I went to the bar, as soon as I walked in, she would play Melissa Etheridge's Like The Way I Do because it was my favorite; and my friends and I would sing that song at the top of our baby dyke lungs while the older dykes watched us with those knowing smiles on their faces ...
Now I *am* one of those older dykes who smiles at the younger generation when I see them out and about .... lol, a complete circle. |

parker mentions melissa etheridge. what a trail she has left, and still kickin' it. we are fortunate to have her.
i don't know what it is with me, but so many times i've not liked people in my life when first meeting or seeing. and wouldn't like them for a long time after lol. but then somewhere down the line i fall for them. they become a major influence. i've done this with quite a few folks, ... etheridge is one. a butch friend had a huge admiration for her and i followed. i remember as a teenager searching for songs with she and her, pronouns. or no pronouns. etheridge gave that to me. the lesbian community owes a lot to her. she will influence for years to come. think of all those that will search for someone like me and find etheridge. |

I too, remember those days- not the baby dyke days, well, other than making my heart beat faster, looking at the baby and older dykes; but the days when it was all so new and exciting. Those were really the best days of first coming out. Finding that missing piece of me, that I could finally feel like there was a place for me and that I was not strange or weird. Being held in another woman's arms and feeling not only the heat that I had never felt with bio men but the true joy that bubbled up inside myself. The clubs were where I really felt, for the first time, that I was home. My people. My tribe. My women.

Reminds me of when I first started going to the monthly dances in Wellington - DOODs dykes out of debt. There was a committee and they would decide who to allocate funds to. I don't think it's going anymore
I remember, maybe the first one I attended, standing there looking around me and thinking, "wow, this is like being in a lolly shop, only it's lesbians, not lollies".

I am glad I was a baby dyke long before the internet.
It felt like I'd joined a secret adventure club! Decoding the bar names, learning which softball leagues to play in, rugby tournaments, the earring placement and language games and nicknames....It seemed more exciting than "googling in isolation" will ever be. I'm glad it's less difficult now. Odd how being an "out" lesbian-identified-lesbian has become subversive again. I loved Off (and On) Our Backs.
