A great read (and excellent points)

This is another book I've read cover to cover numerous times and never got around to reviewing. The author was a lesbian columnist in the early 1990s, and her writings are a snapshot of lesbian culture from that time period. Pat Califia, the Face on Mars, "Bambi"-as-patriarchal-propaganda, gays in the military, and the Michigan Woman's Music Festival are just a few of the many topics that get drawn into Harper's amazingly humorous commentary on society both within and outside the lesbian community. Her voice is incredibly positive for the most part. While she doesn't deny the homophobic society of the time, she pokes light-hearted fun at it while making very important points about changes that need to be made (and are still relevant today). She is the Trickster incarnate--making you laugh and think at the very same time.
