00:00My women who love women are hiding behind pride, find themselves between a rock and
00:13a hard place, between frying pan and fire, grasping at definitions like lifelines, who
00:20are we?
00:21It's unfortunate to know that we still live in a world of discrimination, there's nowhere
00:26to go, we can't hide from it.
00:33There's a lot of stuff that goes on in the lesbian community that you might not know
00:44about.
00:45Dikes ain't other dikes.
00:46This gangster shit, I could play that all day.
00:47It's not so many roles, but it's gangster shit.
00:48They expect you to be aggressive 24-7.
00:49I mean, don't switch up, don't do nothing.
00:58They just feel like two aggressive girls shouldn't be together, like two gay guys.
01:03That's why they call us faggots in the gay community.
01:05There's supposed to be a femme and a stud, and I know two studs.
01:09What I see as a relationship is a masculine and a feminine.
01:12I'm not saying that that's right.
01:14If we go all the way down the timeline, if we take it down to flexibility, we work, categorized.
01:20I had to put the bandana on because I was considered a little too pretty.
01:25The fact that I wear false hair bothers almost everyone.
01:29You're not the typical stud, you know, most studs are like, you know, have a conceiver,
01:34they have dreads.
01:35I had a promoter call and give me that same old, well, what is she?
01:39Is she a stud?
01:40Is she a femme?
01:42I just feel like that's not really masculine.
01:44I feel that the gender roles in the white community aren't as strict or rigid as, you
01:50know, other communities of lesbians.
01:52I was raised by these old butches.
01:54I'm from the old school.
01:56You're either here or there.
01:58If I mess with you, you're a guy, and we got chemistry, cool, that is what it is.
02:03If it's a girl and we have chemistry, cool, it is what it is.
02:06Don't laugh.
02:07It's about you gay and you bisexual.
02:08No, did you like, I don't know.
02:10You with a man hair, then next week you with a female, like, that's not what it is.
02:15Try to make up your mind what you really want, you know, like, if you want to be with a girl,
02:19be with a girl.
02:20If you want to be with a guy, be with a guy.
02:21The people that are in the community can't even fit in the community, like.
02:26I scare people.
02:27The looks I get, survival of the fittest, and so you have to defend yourself by any
02:33means necessary.
02:34And I'm a lesbian, and I'm black, and I'm a stud, that's like, how many, how many whammies
02:39is that?
02:40You know what I'm saying?
02:41It's like, we're at the bottom of the barrel.
