There’s Something About a Stud With Dimples

I love Black butches. Studs. Masc folks. I love them when they’re quiet and when they are loud. I love it they are soft — and when they are hard. Just a whole Dr. Seuss rhyme of loving them.

JoJo Siwa Didn’t Win DWTS, But She Remains the Housedyke’s Favorite

I do wonder if it was all a bit too gay too soon for JoJo to win. It’s pretty incredible that despite knowing how many people would be up in arms about a same-sex pairing, no-one on the show ever shied away from foregrounding it at every given opportunity, which is a win in itself.

On Blackness and “The L Word: Generation Q”

Black queer people are in this community. Trans queer people are in this community. And we deserve to get lost in a good time, too. We deserve fun, messy, sexy storylines. Just as much as any cis white woman over 50.
