Notes from the Scene
Enter Laughing
There are two issues I want to address in this post: sex and humorless lesbians. I find that the better a dyke’s sense of humor, the better the sex. This is certainly the case with me and my girl. She’s a comedic playwright with a twisted sense of humor and I’m a total pervert...
