Stone butch blues: a novel

Judy Carter Quote

"Pronouns make it hard to keep our sexual orientation a secret when our co-workers ask us about our weekend. I had a great time with...THEM. Great! Now they don't think you're queer ~ just a big slut!"

Denise McCanles Quote

"Introductions are tricky in a lesbian relationship. It's a word game. To my friends she's my lover, to strangers and family members in denial she's my roommate, to Jehovahís Witnesses at the door she's my lesbian sex slave, and to my mother she's Jewish and that's all that matters."

Empress of the world

Amanda Bearse Quote

"You can't type what a lesbian is. We're anything and everything. The one thing in common is that we make love to other women. So give up trying to limit us."

Audre Lorde Quote

"There's always someone asking you to underline one piece of yourself - whether it's Black, woman, mother, dyke, teacher, etc. - because that's the piece that they need to key in to. They want to dismiss everything else."
