 | The Best of Stuff Lesbians Like – Part 2By Grace Chu |
Hey it’s Part 2 of the Best of Stuff Lesbians Like. “Best” is of course subjective, so remember to check out the whole damn list.
Nicknames – Shorty, Jersey, Crispy. The list of inane nicknames lesbians give to one another goes on and on and on. You probably have a stupid nickname one of your entourage members gave you, and if you don’t know it, it’s probably “That Girl.”
Being Friends With Their Exes – Any time you run across a group of lesbians, half of them have dated each other. Hilarity sometimes does not ensue.
Gay Porn – The most popular post on this site. No joke. Don’t be confused. Lesbians do not love the wang, but they do love to wank. Unfortunately, straight “lesbian” porn is ridiculous, straight porn is basically hate fucking, dyke porn is too weird and “alternative” for the majority of lesbians who have pretty mainstream tastes, so we default to gay male porn, in which the men are pretty and they look like they’re having a good time.
Being Overly Sensitive Due To An Increased Sense of Political Awareness – This speaks for itself.
Processing – Feelings. We haz them.
Lesbian Texting Syndrome – Feelings. We haz them. In 160 characters or less.
Road Trips – Whether it’s to Provincetown, Fire Island, or Asbury Park, lesbians love taking the party out of town.
Drinking Games – Got lesbians? Got a table? Says the magic 8 ball, a game of beer pong is about to commence.
Six Degrees of Ex Separation – Fact: Six queer women played this game this past weekend at my place. First I laughed. Then I cried. Then I had the brilliant idea to compile a list of my Facebook friends and my friends’ Facebook friends and actually draw NYC’s version of Alice’s Chart and sell it. Then I realized I would probably be physically assaulted, so I put my head down and continued eating pancakes.
And of course…

I have just started writing a blog about my experiences of coming out. It’s not very interesting at the moment but once I get more posts up hopefully it will be insightful or humorous.
If you have the time I would appreciate it if you read it or left a comment

“so we default to gay male porn, in which the men are pretty and they look like they’re having a good time.”
Heh, actually according to arousal studies that’s not true (that lesbians in default prefer gay porn). While women overall have poor connection between their “subject arousal” and “genital arousal”, lesbians in those studies noticeable lean toward lesbian porn and more lesbians than straight women are in extreme ends (and among lesbians, it’s lesbian porn exclusive arousal end, while straight women usually split in half).
BTW, Lisa Diamond, authot of “sexual fluidity” theory, suspects that arousal to gay male porn among self identified lesbians (as well as arousal to lesbian porn among self identified straights) could be indicator of “potential for sexual fluidity” (which basically is another name for bisexuality).
That makes sense. Let’s be honest – male bodies turn you on. You think that your case is typical, but actually only about 1/4 self identified lesbians are more aroused by gay porn (as studies show – and they are better prove than anegdotal evidences from friends and people from internet).
