I blame bewbins and pinkphilosopher: I’ve been developing a thing for girls with straight, shoulder-length dark hair who have a certain gender-neutral, bisexual quality about them, or look like they should be fronting indie rock bands. Dolly (above) from Noel Fielding’s Luxury Comedy answers that call. As does Sarah Barthel from Phantogram.

It’s probably just a phase. Right? I mean I’ll be OK in a bit, right?

You Dress Like a Lesbian

barryyouasshole:

apparently wearing plaid means you’re a lesbian?

thanks porn industry!

now i know how to spot ‘em!

I don’t know what porn movies you’re watching, but I’ve been lied to, in that all my porn lesbians are dressed like cheerleaders and nurses and schoolgirls and on one memorable occasion, (thanks Stoya!) airplane mechanics.

I keep getting in light-hearted trouble for telling my girl friends (you know who you are) that they’re “dressed like a lesbian”. But then they reluctantly admit that I might be onto something, because they’re sexually attracted to women.

They’re not part of the ‘plaid shirts and army boots’ brigade, but their entire wardrobe has a certain gender-neutral quality to it. Dresses, for instance, will be in muted tones and always worn over something else. Just look at Tegan and Sarah. There’s nothing particularly un-feminine in how they dress, but they definitely look lesbian.

I don’t have any problem with that, by the way. But don’t get all up in my business when I say you look like a lesbian. Because you do. You look like a lesbian.

In unrelated news, nice work on the URL. I feel it preempts any and all responses to this post.

Spin Off Idea #2: Scales of JusticeOne’s a Victorian crime-fighting katana-weilding lesbian who wears a maid outfit, the other’s a Victorian crime-fighting katana-weilding lesbian who has a twenty-foot tongue and happens to be a member of a prehistoric and technologically advanced reptilian species, most of whom are hibernating beneath the earth’s crust. Together, the wander the foggy, grimy streets of London uncovering dark deeds and bringing evil men to justice. But how long can the two women conceal Madame Vastra’s Silurian identity? Opening credit sequence: an alarm clock goes off in the middle distance. Something smacks the button on the top, making the noise go away, but also sending it flying across the room. Snap to Madame Vastra suddenly sitting bolt-upright in her bed, as an indistinct lump of Jenny moans sleepily beside her. We catch a less-than-a-second glimpse of Vastra’s tongue slapping back into her head.
Fade to black.
