At the Femme Conference, I attended “The Trouble with Femme History,” a workshop co-presented by Cookie Woolner and Mira Bellwether on the history of femme. One of the discussions after the talk centered around the need to create and/or add to femme archives to aid in solidifying our own collective and individual presences in history. [...]
I love love love Lelo toys. Like <——-> much. No, really. And thank goodness for the Liv, because this fancy schmancy vibe has restored my faith in this amazing company, after a run in with the Lily, which left me a bit unimpressed. I guess the explanation is that I only like the length type [...]
This wonderful post comes to you as a guest post from sublimefemme of Sublimefemme Unbound, a fantastic new blog that I encourage all of you to check out! Big thanks go out to sublimefemme for guest posting! Just a minute ago, my partner sat down on the couch and–seeing my ubiquitous laptop–asked, “Working on your [...]
Granted, summer is almost over for my Northern Sisters, but we Southern women still have at least a few hot months left. Here in Florida, I can remember the temperature being in the 80′s on Christmas over the past few years, with no sign of a cool (not cold. cool.) front until at least January. [...]
I <3 Lelo. A lot. You can imagine my excitement when a lovely box arrived in the mail for me, containing none other than my very own Lelo Lily Vibe. Of course, *mine* was not pink. No, it was black, and we all know how incredibly hot black sex toys are! Now, I’ve had the [...]

In a recent discussion amongst ourselves we came to the conclusion that we need more diversity in our group of contributors. I believe it was stated something along the lines of us all being white, with advanced educations, and with the exception of one (me) identified as fat femmes. I still fit though. I’m an [...]
Ok, now, I know what you’re thinking. What does Strawberry Soup have to do with Femmes (other than being sweet and delicious)? Well, Strawberry Soup is tasty, easy to make in a hurry, nice and cooling on hot summer days, is slightly erotic, and oh, is fun to drizzle on your partner (or have [...]
While I’m giving myself a few days to decompress after the Femme Conference and spend some time processing before blogging about it, you all need to check out the Femme Shark Manifesto. One of the keynote speaker’s at the conference was writer/activist/performer, Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha. As part of her address, she delivered this manifesto composed [...]
I’ve been thinking a lot about femme cock lately, ever since I posted on the subject. I haven’t only been thinking about the acquisition of one, however, but also what it means to have a femme cock, and what it means that my cock is femme. On one hand, it’s a very minuscule difference. I [...]
