Why do we stay friends?!

TVGayGuideOK, so you have the M&M's, the brick of peppermint stick ice cream, your favorite adult beverage and the house to yourself. What do you do?Ok, after that -- what do you do?You turn on the TV and want something Gay. Other than endless reruns of QueerEye and Will & Grace.Add this page to your faves and check out the Gayest possible TV lineup daily! It's not just Gay programming, it's what you would watch just because yer cool. Some of it stretches the boundaries (South Park?). But, ch-ch-check it out.

A request from the PC police! I got a request from a 'friend' to remove the picture of dykes from my area, so here's some other pussy to gaze at. Imagine them as fat and butch, and you'll get pretty close to the original.

Stereotypes The Lesbian LifestyleI usually find this blog one big snooze-ola of navel gazing and bad poetry, but this month there's fun -- January's topic of the month: Stereotypes.While I have yet to fully read this with commentary in mind just imagine if OK, you're heterosexual (pretend with me if you must). You break up with a spouse or FWB. What do you do? Do you continue to confide every secret to them? Do you continue to socialize with them for the rest of your life? Fuck, NO. You chalk them up to experience, maybe wish them well and move the hell on.So, why is it that Dykes can't do this? Sing with me:Anything straights can do, gays can do better, Gays can do anything better than you...OK, seriously. What is up with Dykes insisting that, along with the mullett being the national haircut and not weighing less than 200 lbs., exes become 'family' once they get kicked to the curb (bedside, as it were)?This is something that drives me mad. There's a huge problem of clannishness and cliquie-ness in the Lesbian community that rejects newbies, making it tough to come out. It is in part fired by this unreasonable, stupid need to cling to all the pussies you ate, like some sort of petrified muff-buffet. I am going to Noosa. Apparently there are great dykes there.

These dykes form a clan of sorts, wherein if they haven't all slept together at some point -- 6 degrees of labiation -- they at least all LOOK alike.And then a nubile newbie babydyke or freshly out fox comes along, and they close ranks faster than Republicans at a Pride Parade.This clinging to exes and clans also helps to spin out the stereotypes that stops the rest of us being seen by our sisters in the community.My Ex experience:Rosie had a LTR with Ms. Hitachi, who, refusing to give up the ghost, decided that a vibrator was an appropriate gift for her ex (Rosie) 6 months into our relationship. When I pitched a fit about this, I was the one with the problem. Ms. Hitachi also kept calling Rosie to fill her in on every gory detail of her new sex life. I kept putting my foot down again and again -- this woman was past, I was future, and we couldn't share the same space in Rosie's life. It took a few years, but Rosie got the message, and Ms. Hitachi is long gone, in a new relationship, and I feel we are all healthier for it. I mean really, what kind of woman would I be if I allowed Rosie to run into the arms of a willing ex anytime we had a fight? A STUPID one.Exes are exes for a reason. You can pick one, the choices are myriad and personal to all of us. And while it's not always necessary to banish every ex to the great hair pie in the sky, there should be a cooling off period after your relationship ends in order that you both can move on.As to these clans -- look, bitches: unless you wear a kilt and blow the pipes, why not open up your social circle to women who share interests with you? Believe me, you don't have to worry about ME going after your Big Mama
