PapaChester: To answer the last question, short hair doesn't look good on anyone.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.  Being a straight male, that was the one "question" (and answer) that really connected with me.  There were several times in my life, like right now, that I'd like to be able to grow my hair long.  Don't know if what I've got is a Jew-fro or a Welsh-fro or just whatever my mostly UK ancestors gave me fro, but it won't grow long.  Big, yes - and I suppose if I grew it long enough and weighted it down with gels and whatnot, then I could get gravity to pull it down and make it long, but no.   My wife likes it nice and mostly short.  Heh, sometimes when she complains our son's hair needs a trim, I pull down my "bangs" and show that my hair is "longer" than his.  I know - I'm not helping.

Cyberluddite: I have one.  I've asked a few lesbian friends this question and they can't figure it out either.  And it's this:

What's the deal with some lesbians (pretty much exclusively chubby, butch ones--never femmes) who wear shorts as their casual apparel of choice all winter when it's cold outside and nobody else is wearing them--especially given that these same lesbians often tend to not wear shorts in the summer when the weather is hot and everyone else wears them?

Have others noticed this?  Or is this just a  local lesbian fashion trend, not seen elsewhere?  I dunno, but the bottom line is that if you see a woman wearing shorts around here in December when everyone else is bundled up in warm clothes, 99.9% of the time they are both (a) fat and (b) a lesbian.  WTF is up with that?  Any TF lesbians wanna take a shot at answering that one?

I have a similar question. Why do some lesbians dress like guys? I mean; that's what you don't like, guys. But, I'd say 50% of lesbians dress like guys.

By guys; I mean, backwards hat set at douchbag angle, tshirt with one of those designs drawn by a drunken tatto artist and baggy, frumpy cargo shorts.

/ the point of being a lesbian is being with a girl; not a girl that dresses like a guy!

11. do you hate men?

Question for a lesbian and think outside the box? Ok.

Boxers or briefs?

thisiszombocom: 11. do you hate men?

Thread winnah!

If you like women, why do you want a woman who looks and acts like a man?  Seriously.  No seriously can someone answer this?

/Same goes for gay men who like effeminate gay men

Look, Igetbeing attracted to a woman.  Guys are gross.  Women are beautiful and they smell and feel good.  But I see many lesbian couples where one is femme and the other is "butch."  You'll even see lesbian weddings where one wears a dress and the other wears a man-tailored suit.   My question is, if you're attracted to masculinity, why not be with a man?

It isn't that they are just shallowly imitating hetero couples. The butch femme thing is a very complicated, multi-layered, interpersonal statement.

Also, I would imagine it allows one to enjoy having a masculine partner without having to deal with one of those yucky penises.

A lot of lesbians look like fat Justin Bieber

I've seen this quite a few times in the Vancouver area

Maybe they use the shorts to regulate the extra fat-heat

The 'shorts all the time look' was a thing in the Bay Area/San Jose when I lived down there in the late 90s. I recall it as being a Latino thing mostly. I've seen it up here in Seattle too, but never associated it with lesbians.

I'm not trying to be a smart ass here.  And I'm not being judgmental.  I'm just perplexed.

Why don't straight men date feminine guys... they're attracted to femininity, right?

I'm not trying to be a smart ass either, but I think it boils down to the "they're not into dudes" part.

That sort of question boils down to "individual taste." At a guess, maybe they're more attracted to the appearance of masculinity, in the same general idea of TV shows having peripheral demographics. The gender you choose to present as isn't necessarily related to the gender you prefer to sleep with and some people would probably just feel like dressing that way. Look at Iggy Pop.

So, ummm, here's a question for lesbians:

How do we get electricity from nuclear energy???

/since you don't want to join me and my wife for a threesome/my wife watching me have sex with a strange woman.

LegacyDL: Is it acceptable to punch a butch lesbian in the face if she started it and puts her hands up like she's Jack Dempsey reborn?

Asks the Subaru man. Lulz.

BTW... I'm a hetero dude that drives a Subie. Most diesels I run into usually give me dirty looks, like they'd like to knock my lights out.  Wazzup with that?

No it goes beyond taste.  There is at least 33 1/3% of lesbians who like masculine girls.  There are MAXIMUM 1/2 of 1% of straight guys that like chicks with dicks.

Right. Spend fifteen years trying to figure out who you are, while panicking about whether your friends and family will accept that person. Have entire sections of society discriminate against you and douchebags you went to school with ask you a ton of stupid questions (see this article). Discover what it feels like to be devalued and ridiculed in mainstream media and politics. Done all that? Then you can call me a dyke. Maybe.

In my opinion, when you call yourself something, you set the standard.  Saying others can't call you that unless they bore the same cross you did is frankly just a self-congratulatory double-standard.  If you think you're a dyke enough to call yourself a dyke (whatever that means to you), then you're a dyke, and requiring other people to adopt a higher standard so you can have your own pedestal is just ridiculous.  If I hear you seriously call yourself something, then I feel at liberty to call you the same thing.  Personally, I'm not going to call you a dyke because its not a word that comes quickly to me, but if I hear you call yourself that, I certainly don't consider it off-limits.

I find it interesting folks never ask this of effeminate gay men.  Sexuality is simply more multiple choice than it is true/false.  Also, the author's earlier article is pretty hilarious:http://www.newstatesman.com/lez-miserable/2013/03/le z-miserable-youre- very-pretty-have-you-ever-had-sex-american-girl

Masculine type personality, female packaging........feminine type personality, male packaging.......it floats lots of people's boats. I would say that personality isn't limited to one's package and people are attracted to different things.

Plus there's a whole gay culture and fashion that lead to certian looks/types of people looking the way they do and being attracted to the people they are attacted to. Kind of like how you'd be more likely to see surfer dude dating bikini chick, and  wall street power broker dating trophy wife, and not the other way around.

SurfaceTension: I don't want to know what lesbians do in bed. I can figure that much out for myself.

What I want to know is how do they know they're done with sex? With us guys, we spurt and that pretty much signals the end or at least the beginning of the end. But lesbians could go at it for hours if they wanted to. So how do they know to be done?

OK, that's a really dumb and basic question.

The answer to which I am also interested.

You are aware that men who consume transsexual pornography overwhelmingly identify with as straight, right?

Good question. I've gotten through a whole lesbian porn video to find out.

Same reason marathon runners have to stop after a while. Female orgasms are generally whole-body experiences and you can get worn out after a while. Plus, things going in and out the same area repeatedly is going to cause friction no matter how good the lubrication is.

As someone else further up the thread suggested, maybe it's a case of having all the charms and "good bits"  of masculinity with the added bonus of a partner who understands you better because they're the same gender AND not having to deal with all the penis-related parts.

/not female, so do let me know if I'm getting things wrong

AirForceVet: A lesbian acquaintance the other night stated she wanted to see my penis as much as she'd like to see some disgusting thing. I replied that I though my penis was beautiful, especially since I polish it every night. :-)

I hope you whipped it out

The headline says "ten" but I only see one listed in the byline.

My question: why are lesbians so goddamn ugly and unkempt?

It's questions like these that truly make me wonder if the person asking it has ever been with a woman.

Are you saying that as a dude, as soon as you get off, it's over?  What about for your female partner?  I would sincerely hope you have some sense of when she's done.

We're done when the sheets are soaked, dude.
