A Big Lesbian F**k You
It’s not easy to sacrifice your anger, your sense of being wronged.- Piper Kerman, Orange is the New Black Merriam-Webster’s Thesaurus lists only 2 synonyms but 5 antonyms for the word justice. justice: inequity, unfairness, wrong, bias, discrimination. Apparently, we are far more interested in describing things that are unfair than fair. Marci, a friend […]
Lesbian Dating: Avoiding the ‘Bad Apple’
The rotten apple spoils his companion – Benjamin Franklin I am sitting around a restaurant table with several friends, sharing tales of our worst relationship ever. The stories, including my own, are of verbal and physical abuse, infidelity, drama, inappropriate boundaries with other women, lying, emotionally pushing away and then pulling back in, and more. […]
Is Lesbian Dating is Like Football?
I sit across the bar table from a friend one Sunday afternoon, surrounded by TV screens showing football games. “I don’t know how to date,†she tells me, exasperated. I shove a tortilla chip in my mouth, not surprised the conversation has turned to dating. I nod in agreement and offer, “If you think about […]
Why Lesbians Ignore Red Flags When Dating
It happened one leisurely Sunday. My girlfriend at the time and I had spent the day at the spa, a peace offering for an ongoing argument. We were joking around and then, just like that. She punched me in the arm. And in that moment it was if all of the years of dating, all […]
Eat, Pray, Love – Lesbian!
Being lesbian is a religion. It’s feast, fast or famine. It’s on our knees begging at the altar between her knees. It’s our tribe, our gaggle of gay girls and our fighting to be included in some social club, meetup, Facebook Group, marriage rights, equal rights and more or hiding in social awkwardness afraid of […]

Are You Ready for Love?
Lately “I’m not ready yet†has been coming up a lot. I’ve heard it–and said it myself-many times, and of course it usually makes sense. Everyone need time to let wounds heal, get re-oriented to new situations, settle in after upheavals. But when does “healing†become “hiding out?†How do you discern what’s truly in […]
Positive Body Image Leads to Better Sex
I often ask women to rank the most negative influences on their sexual relationship.  Over half of the time, “negative body image†heads the list.  We’re so trained to stand outside ourselves, judging our bodies–but to enjoy sex we need to enjoy how our bodies feel, not how they look.  So how do you make […]
Why You Need To Love Someone
When I first heard Elton John sing “You Gotta Love Someone†I remembered an incident of TMM (Temporary Moment of Maturity).  I’d been worrying about whether someone I cared for deeply reciprocated my feelings.  Then I realized that what really mattered the most, what would last forever with me, was that I’d let myself love […]
Lesbian Dating: Building Trust
Recently I talked with two women, “Susan†and “Karen.â€Â They had just started dating a couple months before, and seemed quite in lust. They were glowing and giggling, until the issue of “trust†came up. Susan: I just wish Karen would trust me more. She just can’t let herself lean on me. She’s been hurt […]
