There was a post at Feministing, titled Marge's Lesbian Fantasies, about Sunday night's episode of The Simpsons.

Or, rather, about a screenshot from the episode, because if the poster had actually seen it, she would've known that it wasn't Marge's lesbian fantasy, it was Homer's.

*sigh*

One more instance of a straight man fetishizing lesbian sex is totally something a feminst blog should be celebrating. I wish I could be so cheerful in the face of yet another reminder my sexuality is only okay when it benefits anyone but me.

Jesus Christ, I expected Queer as Folk to be like L Word and consist entirely of stereotypical characters, and plots that reinforce the worst assumption about the zomg gay lifestyle, but fuck was I not prepared for the level heterosexist gender essentialist bullshit it keeps slapping me with.

But I suppose it's just escapism. And escaping to the things I want to be escaping from makes perfect sense.

Wait.
