Arisa White: Calling All You Bastards

Arisa White: Calling All You Bastards

Calling All You Bastards, the Fatherless, the Forgotten. “Do you want to write your father?” My mother asked on the 33rd birthday. I didn’t have an immediate reply and she continued, “I have an address for him in Guyana.” My last memory: I’m three years old. He came for a visit and I remember the […]

Hey Kid! A Letter to Myself

A friend posted a short, yet brilliant, note to her child self today that made me think.  We all could benefit from writing to our young selves. It seems the things that bother me most now, or have since childhood, might not have had as much power over me if I just had a chance […]

Lesbian Escort Services?

Lesbian Escort Services?

So, I have this ‘honey do’ list. Don’t you? Even when I don’t have a honey I have a honey do list—maybe I should rename it. Anyway, I was looking for someone to help me with the things I’m bad at or just plain hate to do. I consulted Craigslist and the Lesbian pages to […]

Marriage is a Trickster

Marriage is a Trickster

Excerpt from Lesbian Marriage: A Sex Survival Kit By Kim Chernin and Renate Stendhal Marriage is not the remedy for couple trouble! But there is a lot of magical and wishful thinking about it: marriage will give you a new start, fix your problems, fulfill your dreams… It’s the myth of the “Make-Over Marriage.” (Should […]

A Guide to Going Top Free

A Guide to Going Top Free

Aside from being perpetually bare-chested at home when it’s sweltering out, my two most recent topfree moments this week were: changing shirts at the booth I was staffing at the SF Marathon Expo (with my back turned), and taking my shirt off on a trail while my friend fixed his flat.  People’s reactions?  Well, I […]

New Music – ‘There is No God’

New Music – ‘There is No God’

I have spent the last twelve years impersonating a 70’s country western star named Kitty Rose. Kitty had a loud personality, drawl, wearing cheesy western suits and large cowboy hats. “Kitty” sang (and very well, I might gloat) her own original country western tunes along with classics from Tammy Wynette to Loretta Lynn.
