You'd be surprised! Some of them are really deceptive. I know you've seen them on Jerry Springer!!

However, I'm convinced that any woman that falls for that mess is crazy because I know a woman when I see a woman, even if she looks like a man. And even if she flies under radar for the visual aspect, you mean to tell me that NONE of these women do a THOUROUGH...uh..."inspection" BEFORE getting intimate with these chickdudes? It never ceases to amaze me....

But there are others popping up. I'll see if I can find the links.

I was too. It took me a few minutes and more reading to figure it out. I still don't understand why there are two branches of this org. If it's for the empowerment of lesbian women of color, why not just one org. Do they each do different things in the community based on the two groups butch/fem. What does that accomplish?

I don't know much about the Lesbian community, but I would assume that making one for the 'girly girls' and one for the 'agressive' (their word) women, does not show much unity. But oh well.....I did get a few good laughs out of it.....I only wish I was able to see the pictures everyone else was talking about.

My point exactly. As much as I had to hear about lesbianism from my women's studies professor and how the GLBT struggle is akin to the Black Civil Rights Movement, you almost get this image of a monolithic group. But maybe that buys into the "Black Vote" group and "Gay Rights" group. They're doing themselves and the community (gay and straight) a disservice by fracturing like that. Make the fraternity for male (biological sex) or transgendered males.
