Tuesday Top Ten… the worst ways to woo someone

by Gingerbread

Goodbye February – ‘the month of Love’, as my close chum so charmingly labelled it a week before Valentine’s Day.  I’m very happy to welcome in March, what with the warmer weather it promises, but in honour of the departing month I thought I’d treat you all to my top 10 worst ways of expressing your love for someone else. For those of you who may have attempted any of these feats – shame on you. Hang your heads, look away and know without doubt that we all judge you! … Continue Reading

Tuesday Top Ten… dating tips from TV lesbians

by Devil’s Food Cake

Dating – it’s a weird world out there. The newly or currently single amongst us know this, and those who are spoken for should be glad they don’t know this. But if you’re lost or unsure, or simply have no clue what you’re doing, fear not. There is one source of advice that betters all others – this is, of course, the television. I mean, if the lezzers on TV can pull it off, why can’t you? … Continue Reading

Things Lesbians Like #4: Staying friends with the ex.

by Devil’s Food Cake

Last week’s TLL was something that hit me close to home -  in fact, I’ve started a new chart and it’s disgusting. So I thought I’d broach a subject that was completely alien to me – the whole lesbians being friends with their exes thing. In a way, this is an offshoot of the Chart – take a look at yours and count the number of people you’re linked to that you still talk to. And while you’re there, check if you’re linked to your best friend. Probability? High.

Things Lesbians Like #3: The Chart

by Devil’s Food Cake

Everyone’s done it at some point. You’re sitting around with your friends, you’re all a little tipsy, someone gets out a big marker, and all of a sudden you’ve gotten right down to it: who’s slept with who? Who’s kissed who? How many conquests do you have in common? It can be frivolous and fun, or it can be utterly dramatic and dissolve in tears. The Chart – linking lesbians everywhere.

Things Lesbians Like #2: Cats

by Devil’s Food Cake

The old rhyme goes: first comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage. According to my old flatmate, the lesbian version is more likely to go: first comes the drunk looks across the dancefloor, then comes the u-haul, then comes the cat. Moving swiftly along to another lesbian stereotype, this week we’ll look at the pussycat – pride and joy of any lesbian or lesbian couple worth their salt….

She’s just not that into you

by Sticky Toffee Pudding

As someone who has had her fair share of unsuccessful, unwise, damn right doomed romances I’ve become well accustomed to figuring out when a girl is not really all that keen. And being a generous sort, I thought over the next few months I would share my wisdom in what I can only hope to be insightful, life-affirming articles. Oh yes, bring on the Pulitzer.

Tuesday Top Ten… reasons to walk out on a blind date.

by Devil’s Food Cake

Now, I’ve never actually been on a blind date – there’s just something so nerve-wrecking about presenting yourself to a total stranger and I’m a total wuss – but I can imagine the whole scenario going totally wrong. If you’re brave enough to do it though, kudos to you my friend. Understandably, there are certain dealbreakers for all of us. Not so sure? Here are ten reasons I would call a date a night…. … Continue Reading

How to fail at being a lesbian

by Florentine

Ever stepped tentatively into your first gay club and spent half the night patting yourself on the back for becoming the brave new, pioneering self you always knew you could be, before drinking enough WKD to dye your bloodstream blue and seeking out the only straight man in the whole building for another emotion-void snog?  Or perhaps you spent a solid eight months at the beck and call of your best friend, hoping that one day the fog would clear and she’d suddenly declare that her two year relationship with a rugby-playing, walking sack of testosterone was merely an elaborate cover to hide her undying, all-encompassing love for you.  Naturally.  If this sounds at all familiar, then there’s little doubt that you’ve sucked at being a lesbian at some point in your life.  And if it doesn’t, then please accept a big, shiny gold star for display on a wall/blazer/mouse-mat of your choosing on us. … Continue Reading
