Lesbian Lunar Insights: Leo & Aquarius
August is when the Leo part of us is the star. The lunar cycle begins July 23 when the Sun and Moon rendezvous in Leo, peaking August 7th when the Sun in Leo is challenged by the Moon’s opposition in Aquarius. Leo requires adoration. Aquarius is the “freedom fighter,†the revolutionary, an inundator, and eccentric, […]
That Time I Opened for Etta James
When I was just starting out in comedy in the 80’s I was hitchhiking in San Francisco one night, yup – me and Aileen Wournos – the last lesbian hitchhikers on the planet.  I very luckily got a ride from Lupe De Leon the manager for Etta James, Kenny Rankin and Tania Maria. I made him laugh […]
Final Push for Lesbian Game Changers!
‘Game Changers: Lesbians You Should Know About’ is an important book about lesbians who made significant contributions to LGBTQ culture over the past 30 years. I’m creating this resource book for students as a result of The FAIR Act, a recent law that requires the inclusion of LGBT Studies in the California public school curriculum. […]

Lesbian Cancer/Capricorn Lunar Insights
Cancer is about home, family, and nurturing. In July, it usually rules the lunar cycle, beginning with the New Moon when the Sun and Moon meet for their semi-Annual date, and peaking at the Full Moon in Capricorn when the Moon opposes the Cancer Sun. The Cancer energy rules the home fires, with family being […]
Lesbians Ponder the Mysterious Clitoris
I remember at one point actually BELIEVING the theory of Freud’s “vaginal orgasm”. And when I finally realized the ridiculousness of it, I had to chuckle. It’s time we educate all girls about the wonders of their magical “for pleasure only” organ — residing deep inside their bodies. “Picture a clitoris in your mind. Got […]
Lesbian New Moon Insights: Cancer
The New Moon is June 23rd at 3 degrees Cancer. This is the cycle of Cancer, about home, family, and nurturing, not only for others, but for ourselves. The New Moon occurs just a few days after the solstice, June 20th, a major turning point in the wheel of the year. This New Moon is […]
Don’t Miss Women’s Jazz in Palm Springs!
The resurgence of jazz as a popular music genre has been taking place over the last few years thanks to iconic pop musicians like Queen Latifah, Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper who have released albums of jazz standards, introducing the Great American Songbook to a new generation. The Palm Springs Women’s Festival debuted in 2013 […]
Coming out at 54: A Sweet Mid-Life Surprise
I grew up in a social and religious subculture where my family, community, school and church, exemplified the traditional expectation that boys and girls grow up to be husbands and wives. They have babies—who in turn grow up, and it all “naturally†starts over. As a young child, same sex coupling never crossed my mind. […]
Happy Birthday Lynnly!
It would have been my friend Lynnly’s 63rd birthday yesterday, June 13th, had she survived her long battle with breast cancer. She was the funniest, silliest, corniest, as well as the most intractable, capricious, argumentative and infuriating person I have ever known. Even when she got serious about things, she was rarely introspective, instead spending […]
