Sex vs. Gender An interesting concept, the thought of sex versus gender as though they were two opposing fighters in the boxing ring. Think about it – how often on, say, applications or other miscellaneous forms do you see “Gender: M___ F___” or “Sex: M___ F___?” (The fact that there are only two genders [...]
NOLOSE is an organization for fat and lesbian/bisexual/queer women and transpeople dedicated to ending oppression against people for their size. While NOLOSE is more than just a conference, the main activity for the organization is the (not quite annual) conference. It’s hard to describe exactly what happens at the conference. I’ve been attending since 2004–when [...]
The Hitachi Magic Wand is a product that really needs no introduction. Practically everybody has at least heard of amazing orgasms induced by the Magic Wand and when you add the G-spot attachment to it, it becomes a vibrator superhero. I’m not going to go on and on telling you about how my Magic Wand [...]
I was more than thrilled when Babeland offered to let me review the Eco Delight Kit. First of all, I’m Colorado born and bred, which makes me a sustainable and environment loving hippie at heart. Secondly, I’ve really been wanting to get my hands on a Delight ever since I first saw one, so clearly, [...]

Forgive me for another thrifty posting. After I finished my previous posting here at The Femme Guide I realized that I left out another thrifty thing that I do: I swap. I’m a long-time crafter, maker, sewer, artist, thing-doer kind of lady, and these swaps really inspire me, teach me, and make me feel really [...]
Can A Femme Be Butch Too? I’m sitting here on my couch – okay, futon – belly full of awesome Thai food, agonizing over the fact that it’s been too long since I’ve updated my portion of TFG, then agonizing even more over the fact that I cannot think of a single thing to [...]
Madison Young has twice impressed me with her movies. The first time, with Undone, which turned me on so much that I personally recommend it to friends in real life and this time with Lesbian Life: Real Sex San Francisco. In Lesbian Life, Madison sets out as a very trendy sex writer who is in [...]
Believe it or not women can and do ejaculate…and women who honestly believe that they can’t-can be taught how. Personally, I was once one of the latter. I thought women were peeing not ejaculating…and then…(I bet you’ve already guessed)…someone proved me wrong by causing me to ejaculate. And honestly, how embarrassing to the doubter to [...]
