Dear LJ...

Today, I got to explain to my mom "who gets to be the man" in lesbian relationships.

I hope I did right by my lesbian friends.

I also got to explain about "bears". "So you know those tough motorcycle guys you see at Sturgis? Yeah, gay."

I love my mother dearly, but her life in a monoculture has made her very strange to me.

later
Tom

Yeah, my mom's like that, too. Her sense of what the world is froze solid in 1957, and subsequent explanations don't really sink in.
