if it's 92F in my neighborhood and 73F on the top of twin peaks, is it worth the possible heat stroke to climb up there and enjoy the breeze?
no I don't think so either. in fact I have to put on pants and go up to walgreens in a minute. I just need to choose whatever shirt I don't mind having soaking wet by the time I return. I don't really do shorts. every now and again I try but the blinding white legs just do not look good sticking out from the bottom of a pair of short pants.
and looking good is always preferable to feeling good.
part of my reading today (for the class I'm the paper-grader for) was the Bowers v Hardwick Supreme Court Decision of 1986. for those unclear on their queer history, this was the one regarding GA sodomy laws where the boneheaded majority decided that "homosexuals do not enjoy a constitutional right to commit sodomy in the privacy of their own homes" whereas the dissenting minority wrote two separate opinions that kicked the actual decision's ass from here to texas.
google it sometime. it's public record.

it would also explain why female homosexuality never draws the rhetoric. it's usually something like 'oh and women too.' women themselves tend not to worry so much about being objects of female desire--they're used to the male sex drive after all! and men think lesbian sex is hot but they forget that most of the time their desire has no impact on the equation. I think in their fantasies women do it solely for the male observer.
I could go on but yeah I don't really understand why the establishment can't get over its fear of gay sex. it's just sex. if you want it you say yes. if you don't you say no. straight women understand this. I think they are the only ones.
oh yes, definitely. i've seen enough faux-lesbian porn to know it has nothing to do with the women's own desires. the fingernails! the pouffy hair! the phony noises! yecch.
i wonder about the cliché of how the worst homophobes are repressing feared emotions and desires. someone i know seems to me a bit like that, but that doesn't prove the cliché to be true. heh.
Just yesterday I was rereading the "The Gay Daddy" chapter of Leo Bersani's book Homos. I remember a phrase like "in this country where a lack of sexual imagination passes for moral purity..."
I'm not sure it's a lack of sexual imagination so much as a suffering at the hands of an overactive sexual imagination or the return of an overly-repressed one. it's always the morally righteous who rely on vivid description to make their point.
