See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna
Fourth and finally, there are only 20 days to prepare yourself to down an ungodly amount of $4 beers and ride a mechanical bull in front of a few hundred lesbians, who will undoubtedly post cell phone videos of it on Facebook. Oh, and you can meet MTV’s Rachel Robinson and the cast of the award winning web series Anyone But Me. Also, The Dinah and Truck Stop’s deejay, DJ Saratonin, has flown her ass all the way to NYC for this night of mayhem. (She’s like, an important fixture in LA nightlife, y’all, and she’s bringin’ her importance and beats to NYC.) And lots more! It’s Autostraddle’s second annual pride blowout – Rodeo Disco 2, and if you don’t get tickets, you will be very sad. And hello – MECHANICAL BULL. I wasn’t lying. Here is a screenshot of a video I took of my BFF falling off said mechanical bull at her 30th birthday last month. Sorry for the quality of the photo, but if I were to show her face in detail, she’d break my fingers, and I wouldn’t be able to type, and then I couldn’t entertain you anymore.

Kate Moennig as “Jake” Pratt in the short lived WB series Young Americans

genderqueer

Watching clips of this show on Youtube, I realized for the first time that someone female-assigned-at-birth could live as a man — and date men. The character wasn’t trans —she only presented as male to get into a boys’ school— and the series had a very hetero ending, but it was still a big revelation at the time.

This was when I first fell in love with kate. I didn’t realize it was her until later, The L Word, when I looked her up online an realized she was that boy in Young Americans (which I saw bits and pieces of so I never knew the story) that I was so oddly drawn to and wanted to stare at forever.

This was dumb (hilarious?) for a lot of reasons. First of all, as you may have noticed, Miley didn’t actually kiss anyone? Like, she kind of hovered her mouth above someone else’s mouth, like there was a force field, or she was a Dementor or something. Even Katy Perry could tell her that is not how you do a fake lesbian kiss. Also, speaking of Perry, one would assume this is part of the sexytime image revamp that started with the video for “Can’t Be Tamed,” (which if you haven’t seen it is also hilarious, like tears in your eyes laughing). But if it is, she’s doing a pretty shitty job, because she wrote in her blog that “I supposedly kissed a girl… I promise you I did not kiss her.” Is hovering your mouth over someone else’s mouth a thing on its own, then? Is that what people are doing now? Like at parties?

… partially, though, this is awesome, because it makes me wonder if we’re perhaps getting to a point in time where when the next Katy Perry comes out with the next “I Kissed A Girl,” and people will just change the channel because it’s dumb. Headlines are calling this Miley’s “simulated” or “faux lesbian kiss.” This could be because it wasn’t actually, you know, a kiss, but look at the placement: it’s not “lesbian fake kiss,” it’s “fake lesbian kiss.” Have we finally reached the day where mainstream culture recognizes lesbianism-for-show, and by extension, acknowledges that there exists lesbianism that’s not for show? I don’t know! Stay tuned to find out!
