The unofficial bad day thread.

[Bo Lindbergh]

Stupid old joke time!

Q: How do you recognise a butch lesbian?
A: She kick-starts her vibrator and rolls her own tampons.

I've ended up just learning that batteries don't last as long as one would hope

[retrophrenologist]

Plus I'm pretty sure men are just jealous that they don't have boobs and we do.

Nah, if men had boobs, we'd never get anything done.

[svenman]

Yeah. We have dicks, though, but that's why there is such a thing as a "refractory period". I wrote "have", not "are". Quiet.

On a completely unrelated note (honestly), while I can't reply to all of you who have posted in this thread since I last did, *hugs* to all of you who need and/or want some. If you like.

That doesn't mean you can't be one. And hell, I mean, if there aren't real people you can think of that fit the bill, you at least have Daphne and Sara. They're both feminine and gay as the day is long.

If celebrities count as real people, check out AfterEllen's list of their top 50 out female celebrities. Specifically, have a look through the pictures and note the wide range of different styles, from the very butch to the uber-femme. You can look however the hell you please and still be a queer woman.

No, this isn't just me grabbing onto an excuse to link to pictures of attractive women, why would you even think that?

[Lia S]

*another round of hugs for everyone*

Oh, I guess one thing that I get so worried about is. . .um . . .am I allowed to be really femme as a lesbian. It sometimes feels like I'm suppose to have tattoos and ride a motorcycle.

You can have tattoos of puppies and tie ribbons to your pink motorcycle.

But seriously, obeying the stereotype and looking like you won't take shit from anybody means you are taking shit from somebody. It's self-contradictory and therefore pointless. Dress as you like, act as you like, and remember there a lot of lesbian and bisexual women who we don't recognize as such because they don't conform to the stereotype.

I'm reading GWS. . .I think Thea's really done a wonder on my self esteem. Thank you all for the wonderful words

If they want them they can have them. >:[ (/DD-cup)

[Artemisia]

Can I have some of yours? I'm an A cup right now

[Captain LeBubbles]

Man, I would love it if I could go from the nice big boobs with the fantastic cleavage to a so small I could pass for a slightly chubby boy at will. Among other things, it would mean I wouldn't have to wear a t-shirt with my swimsuit because otherwise my boobs would fall out. *poutyface* Trust me, you're not missing anything but back problems and chest pain. Oh, and they get in my way when I'm drawing- my options are either press them up against the edge of my desk or lay them on top of it. And to get them to behave during the day I have to wear a bra that's just way too big to be comfortable.

So in short, yes, if there was some feasible way that I could transfer some of my boob size away to you, you would be welcome to it.

I'll need to get rid of the ass, too, without the boobs it'd just look disproportionate.

Come on, people! A bad day thread is not supposed to cheer me up!

So anyway, I'm having the worst day of this trip today. Not only did I get sunburnt... You know what, I'll save you from long and uninteresting story and just state my new realization.
All men are dicks.
And yes, that is including myself. (That is especially myself, in fact.)
I think that if we weren't quite necessary for reproduction, human race would be much better off without us.

[Artemisia]

Well, given how tall I am, I need mine to be at least a B-Cup to really be noticeable. That's slowly happening

As for back pain I seem to have mild spinal arthritis. . .just like my mother and sister.

[Hexr]

I kinda decided I would drop the subject, but...
I feel a little better of myself after giving these (is 'womanizing' a word I'm looking for?) jackasses a piece of my mind. They, however, remain as jackasses and I think I'll go to sleep before I'm charged with assault and battery.

[Artemisia]

I'm glad you're feeling better

It's not often that someone gives me such a perfect opening to quote Coupling, but by gum I'll take any chance I get.

"Men- and I don't mean to generalize- are CRAP! They're the human race's only failed gender. Who needs them? And why are they so difficult to keep hold of? Do you think they realize, that if not for the genetic imperative to populate the Earth, they wouldn't get a date? That's one hell of an inducement. No pressure, girls, but shag one of these or it's curtains for all humankind! That's harassment."

(There's more to that, but I've quoted the relevant-this-conversation bit.)
