I am a freakin lesbian - one of those relic women who wants to be with women who want to be with other women.

I am tired of feeling invisible in my own community. I am tired of feeling like a guest in my own community.

I just wanted a place to be where others like me can get together and say "hey yea we are still here and we are still ok and we still have a voice and we're not going away."

Is that too much to ask?

I asked if it was too much to ask. From the deterioration of this thread, it is pretty clear it is too much to ask.

As it is just a matter of time before the rest of the "crew" is summoned to feed into what some want this to be rather than what the intent was, I wish you all a pleasant evening.

The above feels really icky to me Kobi, it feels like you are saying people are gonna come in like its a feeding frenzy of some kind. I honestly don't think that will happen since lesbian terminology is different for a lot of people here in this venue..
