I seem to remember that that was purported as a 'cure' for homosexuality.

Ooh ooh ooh ... how do you catch a homosexual mouse? ..... Get a poofy cat!

Because less is generally more in this instance...although it apparently depends on personal taste for a few.

I know this guy who says he wont ride because it is going to rain lol

Does that make him a lesbian or a hasbian?

Hitcher mate, you are spot on. I guess I was thinking of the Lebanon.

But on the subject of Lesbos : http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7376919.stm

Okay, I've been reading this post with some interest, as you do.

I've got a couple of practical (and not so practical questions). Now, it seems to me the idea of lesbians is kind of interesting, and I get that there is a spectrum of sexuality from gay to straight, and from normal christian sex (meaning none) to full on kinky group sex with implements and rubber gloves (particularly if you're a cop in Vegas).

But, being practical - it strikes me that living with another lesbian must produce some interesting problems. Like, the double dose of PMS each month. I mean, if there is there is an alignment of timing, does that explain the murder rate between women?

Also, who gets to harange whom about the toilet seat, the rubbish not being taken out, and worst of all, who gets the wet spot?

And what about shoes? How can people who share shoes remain friends?

Do lesbians occasionally get longings for traditional loving?, I mean there has to an element of biological programming hasn't there?

Do lesbians - and I'm being serious about this one - decide who gets to lead, and who gets to follow when they dance? Is it a coin toss thing? I have this mental picture of Joanne and Josephine arguing the toss on a strictly ballroom night.

Who gets control of the remote, and who gets to ride up front?

One last question - and this is kind of interesting and kind of rude to ask, and I am being serious - why do some lesbians dress like blokes, and blokes who can't dress at that, and before you get angry, it seems one of the benefits of being a gay man is that they learn to dress and groom really well, and for straights like me, being confused for dressing like a gay man is kind of a compliment (if you get what I mean). Surely one of the benefits for being lesbian is tapping into that same gift of dress sense and style?

Very interesting (someone's given this a lot of thought eh?

)...I am looking forward to reading the answers from the concerned parties

Yes there are some lesbians that dress like blokes, but there are also loads of lesbians that don't. You probably only recognise the ones that do which makes you think all do but it's not the case. It's possible you might see poorly dressed straight women and assume they are lesbians as wall.

It raises and interesting question though - what is "style" exactly? It's a very different thing to "fashion". I personally don't care if someone else wants to wear a leather waistcoat and a feather earing, it's not my cup of tea but whatever. I used to wear skirts, high heeled boots, stockings and all that to work, I was sitting on the bus one day (freezing) when it stopped and two people got on, both obviously going to work in an office like me. A guy in a suit carrying a bag slung over his shoulder looking confident and comfortable, and a girl in a skirt and high heels, a tiny handbag with an impractically small strap, and another bag to actually carry stuff in. The bus drove on and the guy was fine. The girl on the other hand was stumbling around on her high heels, wrestling with her purse, trying to keep the hair out of her face, pulling her skirt down so it didn't ride up while she held onto the bar... you get the picture, she was clearly at a disadvantage. I was sitting there pondering why women's clothing had to be some damn impractical and uncomfortable, how unfair it was that to look good we have to wear this crap when it dawned on me - we do it to ourselves! Nobody forces us to wear this stuff, and is looking weak and incapeable of even standing up properly on a moving bus or breaking into a jog to cross the road actually attractive? And if so to whom? So I made a concious decision to no longer conform to what the majority of society considers to be "fasionable" and instead to wear what I think looks (and feels) good. That doesn't necessarily mean dressing like a man, just not dressing like a barbie doll.
