    Wait a minute, Tragula

    <<They are not interested in having sex with men, and would prefer that no one else did either.>>

    As a lesbian, I can tell you that *for me personally* the first part of that sentence is true. I don't presume to speak on anyone else's behalf.

    HOWEVER, the latter part of your sentence is not for me. Why shouldn't everyone get/give/enjoy what they want to do/what pleases them or their S.O.s? As a feminist (though I don't know how radical I am), I believe women should do what pleases them. If some women like pleasuring their male lover that way, so it be. Enjoy!

    But, geez, don't blame dykes for everything! Some of us like to have fun, too!
