Reclaiming Lesbian Pride
With the interest sparked by the discussion in the leaping thread, I was wondering whether it might be worth starting a thread on reclaiming lesbian pride - sans all the qualifiers. It feels kind of good, reaffirming, empowering to just talk about being a lesbian and seeing the word being used more freely. Was also interesting to see talk about the history of the lesbian feminist movement. So much history I have forgotten about. I miss talking about it. Any one have any thoughts, feelings, ideas, news that might fit well here? |

I'll be back in the morning, after some coffee...but, yes...
 There is just one life for each of us: our own. ~Euripides I see being a lesbian as one small facet of the complex person that I am...and that living my own life, as my authentic self, undefined by others...is immense.

hey all...just a plain ole lesbian who is "butch"...and am so confused, but respectful, with all the terms...why can't I just be recognized as a woman loving woman...without all the "designer labels"...what is wrong with that? Whatever we may "identify" as in the confines of closed doors is between the two of us! That is my story and I am sticking to it! I am not here to "argue" or "derail" or anything except be recognized as a plain ole lesbian! PROUD lesbian! Thanks, Kobi!
