jenny shimizu, strappy sandals, and me on the radio

I’ll be on Sirius OutQ Radio for The Diana Cage Show tonight at 10pm EST. You may know of Diana from such fabulous things as books like Box Lunch, Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide, or formerly editing the fantastic dyke sex magazine On Our Backs. And now, she blogs at OurChart.

Get a 3-day trial for OutQ radio – news, interviews, and music for the queer community 24/7 – online at SiriusOutQ.com. Listen in tonight to hear me ramble about really good sex with Penny, dating, being an aspiring stud, butch identity politics, and who knows what else.

Jenny Shimizu is also scheduled to be on the show tonight, and I hear Diana promised to wear strappy sandals for me. It’s also nearly a hundred degrees in New York City – it’s gonna be fun.

    Diana Cage wrote (much more clearly) something similar to what I once tried to say here, about butch being a visibly sexual identity:

    "I’m not saying society is a safe place if you assimilate. But feminine couples could be mistaken for gal pals. And matching suit-wearing gay boys could be mistaken for business partners. The flat-topped butch with septum ring and a red hanky in her back pocket walking hand-in-hand with her high-heeled femme girlfriend in full rockabilly attire reek of sex. When you look at that couple, you know they are going home to fuck. They’re loud and hot and out for everyone to see. And that kind of in-your-face visibility is about as political as you can get."

    I'm sure the two of you will have a lot to talk about!

  3. That was a great interview….you've got a really sexy laugh! It was such fun listening to you and Diana Cage bounce off each other, but I especially loved listening to you read from your blog. That post was an intense to read, but hearing you read it aloud…wow.

    sinclair, your interview last night was amazing! i was so excited to hear you read and you totally delivered. in fact, it was quite a scene! my femme best friend and i huddled around my tiny, broke-down computer listening closely and exchanging occasional, knowing glances that basically read "omg…anytime, anywhere…"

  5. Diana Cage – brilliant, fascinating person! I met her last year at the SIRIUS Christmas party.

    Very stylish, too.
