After all, we were exposed to all that advertising portraying females as objects of desire, and all the books with "good parts" that I ferreted out while working at our small-town library presented women according to the "male gaze" (a term that certainly wasn't in common use in the late fifties-early sixties.) How could we not think of women as sexy?Sacchi Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801164916418570059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-14722306780080547382014-09-06T07:11:58.728-04:002014-09-06T07:11:58.728-04:00Really, Garce, you didn't know I liked girls t...Really, Garce, you didn't know I liked girls too? I would have though it would be obvious from my fiction.<br /><br />Writing romance, I have to really sit on myself to keep the F/F out of the stories where it does not belong. However, I spent all day today working on a new lesbian story that's very different from anything I've done before. So far, so good!<br /><br />I'm giving myself permission to give in to my fascination.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-80397262624868560692014-09-06T07:10:18.045-04:002014-09-06T07:10:18.045-04:00Brevity is definitely the soul of...!Brevity is definitely the soul of...!Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-3965933458280289802014-09-04T21:39:18.388-04:002014-09-04T21:39:18.388-04:00Do you realize - I never knew you were bisexual. ...Do you realize - I never knew you were bisexual. This is kind of a revelation to me. Wow. I'll bet this is a more common thing among women than people suspect, because women are often pretty chummy with each other, and lets face it, there's places in a woman's soul a man just can't go.<br /><br />I get what you say also about women that intrigue you. There is a huge difference in experience between the commercial branding of sexy and how its presented to us, and what actually goes through the male and female mind. There are women I see day to day, women my age or older, who to me are stunningly erotic and interesting, though they might be surprised to hear it, and maybe haven;t heard it for years. Its the character, that goddess nature that doesn't need you but might choose you.

However, every life has a million unrealized possibilities. These are just some of mine.<br /><br />Also, loss and lack are great catalysts for creativity. During my teens and twenties, when I was always lost in angst over my love life, I wrote tons of poetry. After I got together with my husband, I didn't need that outlet anymore and the flood stopped.<br /><br /><br />Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-7547651570587235592014-09-02T16:23:44.631-04:002014-09-02T16:23:44.631-04:00Beautiful stories.

To put a twist on an old joke, I'm fascinated with women too, does that make me a lesbian? Women are God's art project, appreciated from many perspectives. Thanks for sharing yours.<br /><br /> Your bit about comparing notes with a guy reminded me of an Anthropology Teaching Assistant I had many years ago. (As a teacher, unfortunately not as a lover) She was an unabashed male watcher and irrepressible at the sight of a big hunky guy. It was fun to listen to her.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15484640447109164744noreply@blogger.com
