I’m sorry to have worked on too many other things and stopped updating this blog. Trying to catch up — with some outdated news.

Yep. That’s Scarlett and Sandra. Nope. They don’t seem to be gay.

If you’re a female celebrity and you haven’t gone girl-on-girl before a crowd of roaring, adoring males, you’re probably gay.

This article is really funny, but Hollywood didn’t invent lesbian erotica (for heterosexual men). In art or in porn, that shit has always been there:

Images of simulated ‘lesbian sex’ have been man-made for decades, with the intention of titillating the male gaze. This exploitation of heterosexual women to represent lesbians and their sexuality became more obvious as lesbians created the images of their own fantasies.

Example: Super Sexy CPR

So there had been a fuss over whether or not Clementine Ford really came out and whether or not she is really gay. Here’re some of the lines that caused the problem:

The truth is that I’m not technically out yet. Put that in your magazine. For me, there’s never been a distinction about anything to do with sexuality, so there was no declaration to be made. My siblings and I would bring home men and women, and as long as they were human it wasn’t a big deal.

…

I never want to put a label on myself — but knowing that not everyone comes from such a liberal place, when something like Prop 8 comes out, you realize it’s important to stand up and be counted. A little gay kid in a small town is more important than whether I want a label.

Remember Scarlett Johansson — I mean, Cristina — said she didn’t want to label herself bisexual? That’s kind of how this is. Some people are disturbed by ambiguity but really, is it necessary to define love?

Some people eat only cheese their entire life, some drink only milk their entire life, these people do exist, but what gets you the enthusiasm to label them cheese-lovers and milk-lovers, just because you are one of them? And there are people who love both milk and cheese. What do you call them, bi-dairy-lovers? And for the others who prefer either at times, you start making up something like dairy-affection-confused?

AND cheese and milk are not the only dairy matters in this world!

Get over it.

BTW Clementine looks exactly like her mom.
