The other day I saw a woman I had written about in my poem The Game. When we were teens she and a boy tried to kiss me in my livingroom. We passed a few words asking about family. She asked if I was still at the last place she knew I lived. She asked if I was married - yet. I don't even remember if I answered the married yet question and if I did it was a quick response and on to something else.

Jasika Nicole is an out actress who plays FBI Special Agent Astrid Farnsworth in Fringe, a Fox sci-fi series. Tonight I will watch the show for the first time just because she is playing on it. If she actually has something to do and is not just on camera for three minutes I'll watch the show. And I hope that if she does have a substantial part that her character isn't "straight" if her

One of my favorite all time tv shows is Charlie's Angels. As a lesbian teen it was good for me to see that women could be intelligent, athletic and attractive who could do more than get into trouble and wait for a man to rescue her. The original Angels did it all. They could run, race cars, skate board, dance, roller blade, swim, play golf, tennis and they had guns that they would shot if they

I don't watch much television but last night I was clicking channels and came upon a show that has one of my favorite actresses on it. On Memphis Beat, Alfre Woodard plays police Lt Tanya Rice, boss to the lead character. I actually watched a new tv show to the end. On the episode last night, a Black undercover female cop complimented Rice on her bossom the first time she saw her. The men laughed

At a store I frequent, I think the cashier thought I was interested in her because she wouldn't talk to me unless I asked her where something was. The store items keep getting moved around so even though I go there often, I sometimes have to ask where something is or if they have what I want. One day I entered the store and a female ex-classmate came up to me and gave me a hug. Whenever she sees

Women will send me e-mails but don't want to talk to me here at SPT. :) I wasn't trying to get a date with the previous post, which I have deleted. That was just an experiment trying to get women to stop being shy about approaching a woman first, even anonymously, and say hello. You don't have to be intimidated by women or embarrassed about talking to a woman. You should ask yourself what you are

It's always amusing to me when I read comments by men at lesbian sites who try to give their opinions on why lesbians don't want to have sex with them. And the things they say just clearly shows they don't read and don't pay attention to what lesbians say about our own sexuality.I am a lezbian. I don't date sex fantasize about men.

As SPT readers know, I am a Melissa Etheridge fan. I am editing this post to remove the comment I made about Melissa and Tammy's breakup. Some people are taking sides without knowing what is actually going on inside M&T's relationship. I was just hoping they would get back together.

When my cousin first got married, I was a bridesmaid. I didn't reach for the tossed flowers. When she married again, I attended that wedding. Recently she renewed her marriage vows but I did not attend. I didn't because I know she voted against me having the legal right to get married. She is a minister and thinks she should follow the writings in an ancient book when it comes to other people's

What is it about me, that even from a young age, females were always trying me? Sex appeal - even way back then? HA! One teen-day, I was standing with several other girls when my best friend, at the time, put me against the fence and put a leg between mine. Yeah, just thinking about it, I'm smiling right now.

I didn't intend to do anymore post on political issues at SPT, but ....In Arizona USA, a new law will permit racial profiling of people who "look un-American".A few months ago, heterosexual Americans of color voted in massive numbers to deny gay people the legal right to marry each other - because gay people are "different" than the majority population.I have been saying and saying and saying -

A cousin called to see if I had heard that Michael Jackson had died. Turning to a MSNBC, the report was that Michael was in a coma. Before the official report was released, there were reports out that he had died. Michael was reportedly taken from his home by ambulance to UCLA medical center about six miles away, having had cardiac arrest. Someone else called to see if I had heard the news.

Okay, I'm calmer than I was the last post. First off, I'm not Jewish, Muslim or christian so I don't follow their orders. That doesn't mean I don't have my ideas about God. Some of you are probably thinking the cross is too big, but I wanted to stress the heaviness of bearing that weight. Wearing that symbol on a chain around necks for all to see proclaims faith. I don't wear one. But I carry the

Earth is where I dwell, it's heaven and hell. I see God's disciples and the devils spawn in darkest night and breaking dawn. God's true disciples have invisible halos but the devils spawn speak with forked tongues.

Rock-n-roll princess, Melissa Etheridge, is my favorite music artist. I don't put people on pedestals but I'd build her one. She's out, proud and loud. I didn't start to write down all my feelings until I listened to her music. It was the 90's and a radio dj said she came out at some political event. That got my interest, and so I was all ears when her song "Like the Way I Do" was played. Wow! (

All parents should be as loving and supportive as Dr. Steven and Joan Palmer was when their son told them that he was gay. Parents with children should be trying to make the world safer by having laws that are equal for everyone because they don't know what their children's sexuality will be.

Later, when I was in my relative's room, I tried not to take too much notice of another woman drawing blood. My relative wasn't doing well, and I should not have been thinking about that woman. When

(Mrs Etheridge you didn't let me down.)When I first heard her speaking about how her hetero-family members treats her and her wife and children, and that she loves them -- well, I thought some people wouldn't understand what she was saying. I understand and some of us who haven't lost our

Wanda Sykes is a lesbian!!! Just last week, I was wondering when a Black lesbian celeb would make the announcement. I will have to put her pic on my sidebar. Hey, I need Black lesbian role models too. So now I have one who has announced publicly that she is a proud Black lesbian woman. Actually, I have two -- Staceyann Chin (right) isn't exactly a celeb but she is to me -- she has been n HBO

She doesn't want to speak for the masses. And why should she have to. There are plenty of people who want to speak publicly but are not given the mike and tv camera. I know first hand how that works.

Yesterday, I was at a store and the cashier stared at me. She had eyes that wasn't the average dark eyes. Dang, I wish women would stop starring at me and say something. When the guys stare, I prefer that they only stare. I don't get it -- I never have -- but it's been happening since I was a kid. I remember that one day when I was younger than 13, me and my cousins got on an elevator to go see

I received an e-mail today "FW: Think before you speak!" It was funny. Some sexual innuendos were mixed in. It reminds me of the time when in my twenties, we were having a cookout. I went into my apartment and a guy yelled up the steps for me to come on. I yelled back "I'm coming". He started to laugh because he got the response he wanted. He didn't care that my family was outside and may have

The haters and the heterosexuals scared of losing their homosexual spouses WON this round. But what did they really win? So homosexuals can't get a piece of paper that legally binds them to their lover -- so what? So homosexuals can't get health coverage for their children and all the other things that go with same-gender marriages being endorsed by the law. Until heterosexual haters grow hearts

And because I can get rather wordy, I replied here at SPT."Gays and Lesbians will now know that they can’t just go around thinking that a minority will care about the GLBT cause.

In my opinion, the Gay Rights movement need leaders. And then there should be a march on Washington, DC. The issue of legalizing marriage for Gays is a federal issue since it concerns civil rights. The protest need to be in Washington, DC. to make the federal officials address this issue. They have added an amendment to the US Constitution to give each state the sayso on whether or not Gay

The birth mother has been in a mental hospital and her mother was also. And now this woman is trying to claim that her daughter has said she wanted to kill herself after visiting with the lesbian parent. It seems to me that the daughter has inherited a mental thing from

There is a song (video) that I listened to over & over this evening for at least one & a half hours. It's in German I think, but it's beautiful (and I'll not mention that so is the woman who sings it.) It's the voice and the music and my aching heart. I was putting my own words to the music. It got to a point where I thought I heard her say "I licked her all night". It's just me having a lonely

I'm going to stop surfing and stick with the sites that don't irritate me -- lesbian blogs. Yesterday, I read comments by some heterosexuals who said they are tired of homosexuality being put in their face. If the heterosexual population doesn't want it in their face, then ask the media why they try to out celebrities and politicians? Why is "lesbian" porn so profittable if heterosexuals don't

Several days ago, two women were having a discussion about politics. They both said Obama would get the gay vote. One said, gays have to give an account, meaning on judgement day. Heterosexuals who are religious, or claim to be religious, still think of homosexuality as a sin. But if they were asked to show scripture they could not do it. They would just say, but it's in the Bible, and they
