You’re queer. You’re exactly just as queer as the rest of us. You’re so queer that you wrote into a queer advice column on a queer website, and a queer person replied to it, and other queer people will relate to it. You couldn’t be any queerer if you hosed yourself down with local organic honey, rolled around in biodegradable glitter and showed up on Jodi Foster’s doorstep holding a signed copy of Swamp Ophelia. Go out there and be yourself all over the place.

Carmen Goodyear, one of the founders of Country Women magazine, and her wife Laurie York.

“Carmen Goodyear and Laurie York, partners in farm and marriage, have for decades forged an existence removed from consumerism, rooted in communal living, and above all, situated close to nature. This farm and preserve is where they have raised goats, sheep, chickens, and bees; where they have grown a mammoth garden that supplies most of their food; where they have helped wage successful battles against offshore oil drilling, a nuclear power plant, and GMOs; where they have, after many years together, gotten legally married …” 

— From “Country Women” by Rebecca Bengal for Vogue, June 25, 2017. Photographs by Amanda Jasnowski Pascual.

It just felt really good to watch two women find laughter and healing after disappointing each other and making hard decisions for themselves that hurt the other person and being insecure about things in their life without being insecure about the other person’s love for them. That’s real couple stuff, and it warmed my heart to watch Cameron Esposito dry-heaving about it.

It was very like ‘better get down in a cellar, ma, storm’s abrewing.’ I had a pretty significant change in the way that I dressed and mediated my appearance.” Eventually, Ortberg said, “I became fascinated and surprised by my own face and my appearance, I found myself looking at myself constantly and there was this desire on the one hand for no one to notice and on the other hand for someone to say ‘I know exactly what you’re doing and I’m doing it too.’ There’s something so surreal about going into my closet and finding an item of clothing I used to wear happily and enjoy how I looked in it and having none of that connection to it now. I’m wondering, how can I make decisions if I might feel that way again? I have a few items of clothing that I try on again every couple months and think ‘maybe I’ll like it again,’ like a language I used to speak. But it hasn’t happened yet.

It seemed to me that an opportunity was being missed. Once you’re able to free yourself from the idea that sex can only equal a penis entering a vagina, a whole wide world of robotic fun awaits. And who has more experience overthrowing that idea than queer women? We have all kinds of bodies and all kinds of experience having sexy fun in all kinds of ways. The world is waiting for a robot that isn’t constrained by heteronormative ideas of what sex is or can be. Why couldn’t I be the the one to build it? Well, perhaps my total lack of any qualifications or experience whatsoever would be a reason why, but I’ve never let that stop me before. My mind was made up. I was going to build a lesbian sex robot.
