Sofia,
You made the joke, I joked back, and THEN ya said this:
Sofia wrote:I must affirm that the Lipstick Lesbians are more palatable to the masses than the mullet-hairdo or bowl jaw lesbians. I know a smattering-- and the Lipsticks blend-- the mullet hairdo's and overt facially masculine wimmin are avoided and discussed cruelly.
That takes it beyond yust yokin'. That makes a specific assertion that was then challenged. Ya make a silly assertion, expect it to be challenged, ya know? PeeCee schmeecee.
(Just found this, Sofia, thought you might appreciate it:
psssssssst, soz (ok, everybody can do this) - give this a try
from Masculinely Politically Incorrect
errrrrrrrrr the actual quiz
is here
this is Bailey's result (can you believe they have a quiz to figure out how straight-acting your dog is?!)

OH! Look what sozobe did while I was cleaning the kitchen!!
Even though my comment above was goofy, it is true, at least in my part of the world. Masculine lesbians bear the brunt of societal jokes and such--while the more feminine lesbians 'pass' for 'normal'. This is just a fact. When I point out uneasy or unPC facts like this, TRUST ME, it doesn't mean I think they are of any merit.
Don't mean to interrupt, just one thing I've noticed:
Lesbian women and gay men tend to give a lot more conscious thought
to sexual, social, identity and relationship issues.
Their orientation forces them to face life and decide things in their own terms.
Most straight folk I know don't really examine who they are,
what they stand for and why.
Anyone who spends time becoming conscious, thoughtful, resilient and aware
will make a better parent. If a homosexual woman or man has gotten
to the point where they've "resolved issues" and are comfortable and eager
to raise a family, then I bet they're *better* than the average parent.
Most people don't think, and simply have kids on auto-pilot.
Emotional and mental preparation makes a huge difference!
With all the homophobia around, just who do you think is being trained
to become strong, capable, emotionally literate, fiercely loving,
knowledgeable, dedicated, and truly free?
C'est moi! ('cept I have long hair.) (And don't think TOO much of Ms. Steinem.) ("If Men Could Menstruate" rocks, though.)
Your score is 31
LEVEL 4-- FEMINIST
Gloria Steinem is more than a hero to you-she is a Goddess! You threw away your DD36 bras years ago along with all the other symbols of female cultural slavery and oppression. You spend your weekends rescuing cats from the pound and you attend regular meetings of "WOMYN: Life Without Sperm"!
Your score is 41
LEVEL 3-- LIPSTICK LESBIAN
Yes, you're the cliché of the Modern Millennium Lesbian! You understand the benefits of wearing makeup but mostly leave the house in a ponytail and baseball cap. Whenever a movie is made with a Lesbian in it you see yourself on screen. Flannels are a mainstay of your wardrobe but you have a nice little black cocktail dress for the right occasion. Your last big event was having all your friends over to watch "If These Walls Could Talk 2"!
very weird. no ponytail or baseball cap here. i wear big hats. i have flannel pj's but that's it. when i looked at the general results - i managed to have at least one thing from each category except the last one. i must be too gender-neutral or something. errrrrr, don't tell Setanta i said that.
Same here ehBeth! I have to laugh that with so few choices, there was often one that applied to me. Like:
Quote:The kind of make-up I wear:
MAC
Origins
Grease from the car
This question offends me!
Origins!
Etc.
CodeBorg - you've really fleshed out what Quinn said.
This is funny.
It seems that I am a Lipstick Lesbian. (Ne'ermind that I've only been attracted to mins.)
Just because I'm athletic.... I NEVER WORE A FANNY PACK!!!
Where do I get my toaster? I've been recruited.
Scored a 54.
Dang, I'm a level 5, tomboy...can't remember my score
LEVEL 9-- HARDCORE BUTCH
Martina Navratilova is a Femme in comparison to you! In fact the only womanly thing left of you is your name! Your head is shaved, your eyebrows pierced and your arms tattooed. Your wardrobe consists of two things: a white Hanes wife beater T-shirt and a pair of old beat up jeans. You have one accessory: a tool belt that is Permanently affixed to your hip and your favorite book is "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".
let's see - i shaved my head for my 30th birthday, i've got tattoos, i love
those nasty white t-shirts (just bought 6 more - but 3 were from Jacob), wore ancient jeans to work yesterday, the guys in the neighbourhood come over to borrow my tools (most recently - Gary borrowed my crowbar, and Joe borrowed my Makita drill and Robertson screwdriver), and I've got Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance on the shelves upstairs.
On the flip side -
LEVEL 0-- ULTRA FEMME
You are a Femme de la Femme-a Femme Fatal! You look to Marilyn as a role model.
hmmmmm, my favourite skivvies are from Warner's Marilyn Monroe Collection.
i'm so torn.
i guess i'm glad (can i say that?) that cavfancier is more butch
than sozobe.
I had no idea that white t-shirts were so meaningful.
I'm right in the middle, which may explain my generally diplomatic exterior...I am also glad I am a little more butch than soz, given the penis and all...
Oh, and only chicks look hot in wifebeaters....mind you, I thought they were called tank tops now, but whatever...
Also, lesbians make better parents than thespians, methinks.
Cav...you call that a penis?
errrrrr, is there where i ask "on the boys' test or the girls'?"
ah, very good, indeed. we need a balance of butch and femme to make things interesting. :wink:
Well Slappy, I do think of the avatar as a big dick.
Okay, I took the man test, here it is (this one makes more sense to me):
Your score is 48
LEVEL 3 -- MOSTLY STRAIGHT ACTING
You lead a normal everyday life and it's 'no questions asked' as people just assume you are straight. Every once and awhile a very aware person might notice something that causes them to think 'fem' but it's a fleeting thought because you turn around and surprise them with more masculine traits before they even have time to fully analyze the last one.
