So I went to my editorial meeting for the Noise yesterday.
SkunkRising (the author of the piece I made fun of here) showed up and proceeded to dominate the editorial meeting for 45 minutes whining because I wasn’t nice to her. Then she left.
Oh, and by the way, she wasn’t a lesbian it turns out. She wasn’t quite like I thought. I pictured her as sort of this freshman NAU student with more piercings and passion then sense who had decided she was a lesbian and that men were responsible for all the evils of the world. The reality is that she’s a single mom who somehow makes time out of the rest of her life to work for her beliefs, who was deeply offended that I automatically assumed she was a lesbian because she said she was a radical feminist. Even more annoying, this is the standard response she gets from people.
What can I say? Its true. I felt I was making fun of her mostly for being whiny while claiming she was a “radical”, but I can see her point of view. It is bad (not that I care) that radical feminists get labeled as lesbians. But I’m not one of those people who thinks being a lesbian is a bad thing, and frankly, if you go around using the word “queer” 3 times in one eassy, not to mention in normal conversation, people are going to think you’re gay.
I was right about the nose ring though.
