To me, this is a classic queer girl book. There are photographs of a wide variety of queer women doing all kinds of things. There are solo portraits, political statements, proclaimations of desire, and everything in between. Any dyke would be happy to own this.
Full of lesbiliscious box munching deviance.

- This book is dedicated to all the lesbian artists who would not, could not, and cannot imagine being in this collection:
because you fear for your job
because you fear abandonment
because your lover is a close... (show all)t case
because your family is ashamed of you
because someone threatened to take your kids away
because the academy didn't like it
because the gallery disdained it
because your estate does not wish to co-operate
because it's politically incorrect
because it's politically inopportune
because you don't approve of the word 'lesbian'
because you don't approve of the word 'dyke'
because you don't approve of 'porn'
because you think sex should really be private
because it was different when you grew up
because you don't see the point in bringing this out in the open
because you don't feel like living anymore
because you didn't mean it that way
because you're locked up
because you're doped up
because what did lesbians ever do for you, anyway
because it hurts to be criticized and cut down
because people are cruel
because you're not a hero
because
the first cut
thank you
is the deepest
