I get irrationally angry at myself when I bite my lip accidentally. Like, body of mine, WHY are you hurting YOURSELF??? No one wins here! STAAAAHP.

I feel that way when I bite my tongue. Which I sometimes do in my sleep, which sucks.

I haven't watched Scandal yet (I'm watching last night's Grey's). But I agree that Mellie is my favorite. I saw Fitz in some other show the other day and it confused the heck out of me.

When would you tell someone you're a Pillow Princess, and what's a Stone Butch? And a million other terms I am now learning I know nothing of. I would like to redress this fault.

Generally one does not label one's self as a Pillow Princess, as it's usually a somewhat derogatory term. Stone butch generally means someone butch who doesn't want to be touched during sex.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I saw an interesting line about Scandal where they decided that Cyrus was gay based off the way the actor played him. I wonder what in particular that was.

Zen, it was from this really badly named article: [link]

Ah, I saw that picture set before somewhere else. What other terms did you not know? (And apparently someone DOES label herself as a pillow princess. I guess if you find someone who's down with that...)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I earned 75 cents from buying some fruit snacks, but I think I'm allergic to them. Just ate some, and my mouth is all tingly. (There are a bunch of savings apps that list a bunch of products each week, and if you buy those products and submit a picture of the receipt to the app, then you get 50 cents or $1 or so sent to your PayPal account. This week, those fruit snacks were listed on two different apps, plus they were on sale at my local store, plus there was a coupon for them, so the amount of money I got back from the apps was 75 cents more than what I paid for them.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Stone butch generally means someone butch who doesn't want to be touched during sex.

But, but...I understand maybe sometimes for fun, but never?

Because books.

But, but...I understand maybe sometimes for fun, but never?

That was my thought. It seems like it defeats a whole lot of the point of sex.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I knew Pillow Princess, but Stone Butch was new.

Are all Pillow Princesses femme? Princess seems an unbutch thing to describe yourself as.

What's a pansexual lesbian?

Well, "Pillow Princess" generally sounds femme, but if you're using it in a semi-derogatory way, then the "princess" part could be part of that? It's someone who just lays there and gets fucked, and doesn't do anything for their partner.

Some people who ID as stone say they get enough pleasure (and/or even orgasm) from giving someone else pleasure.

And since those labels are self-given a lot of them are however that person wants to believe in them? Probably a pansexual lesbian is into all sorts of people but still strongly identifies as a female and as part of the lesbian community. Some people would go with "queer" in that instance, but others would want to specifically label both affiliations, if that makes sense?
