Letter to Kate Kendall and NCLR:

Kate,
As a Lesbian Sister I appeal to as I did when it came to defending Michigan Womyn's Music Festival before and the protection of our WBW and Lesbian spaces in one of the biggest ongoing venues and safe spaces for Lesbians in the world. Michfest is now gone, and Lesbians no longer have any safe havens of our own, with the exception of much smaller Gatherings.
I lived in the SF Bay Area from December of 1983 to September 2013, 30 years, I marched in SF Dyke March from 1994 to 2013, before we left. I was there with my Lesbian Spouse fighting for Marriage Equality along with you, and heard you speak eloquently for Marriage Equality in that struggle. We married in 2004, and then they took those marriages away 6 months later. We marched and protested and even heard the arguements in the courtrooms..NCLR represented us then.
However NCLR has not been good in representing the Lesbian community when it comes to OUR struggles first and foremost. It is absolutely shameful that 12 Dyke Marchers, longtime activists and Lesbians, many who I personally know from the Bay Area and some also from online while living here in Nebraska as good friends and allies, were viciously attacked by trans activistists and their supporters for expressing their opinions on their signs. These signs were not nearly as incendiary as those in England, but Lesbians are tired of having ALL our spaces and places coopted by those who do not have our interests in mind but rather prefer to prey on our community.
I KNOW these womyn, I have politically worked and collaborated with these womyn, NONE of these Lesbians are violent individuals. I have watched the videos, read their statements, as well as their signs, and seen for 25 years the Lesbian community and my Sisters under attack bit by bit by transactivists and their supporters. They do not respect boundaries, but yet want their own. They do not want hate speech directed their way and control dialogue and words, and criticisms, but they sure dish it out.
Hate speech has turned into acts of violence, from two Oakland Lesbians and their son viciously murdered by trans activist Dana Rivers who spent many years protesting against Michfest at Camp Trans to constant trolling on every Lesbian and many womyn's groups with threatening hate and rapist speech towards Lesbians, Feminists and women they disagree with. To a hateful display on at the San Francisco Library put on by the Degenderettes on Punching Terfs, decorating baseball bats with paint and barbed wire, and stealing our matriarchal symbol the Labryis as a symbol of Lesbian and Amazon Pride, and morphing it into a weapon they threaten to use against any so called 'TERFS', which is a hate word Nor do we want to be called ":Cis" or 'Queer".
We are LESBIANS, DYKE FEMALES out loud and proud. We do not want sex with ANY born males, nor is penis female any way they want to sell it. Bottomline Lesbians have a RIGHT at this point to date who we want, when we want, and engage in the sexacts WE DESIRE between two Female bodies. We also have a right to our own spaces, and to defend Lesbian youth, and encourage them to THINK before transitioning at such a young age, before they really know who they are. That there are other possibilities, which one of the signs addressed. All the side effects going on T.We all know countless Lesbian women who have been actively pressured to transition, which is now extending to youth.
More and more are starting to detransition after seeing what these hormones do to their bodies, and that what was promised them was smoke and mirrors.
But the bottomline is that violence is NEVER acceptable or ganging up on one's so called Sisters, IN A DYKE MARCH which is OUR night of Pride. Built up by Longterm Lesbians such as these Sisters and others who have lived a lifetime both as Lesbians and as Females. There is a Trans March for them the night before.
We will no longer stand for cooptation of our communities, our bodies, our beings or identities or for the continuing censorship and threats of violence or ACTUAL violence from the trans community and their supporters.
We will hold all Lesbian Organizations accountable to actually represent US. Lesbians. Born Female women who love and lust and partner with other women, who have lived and created Lesbian community together, who long for our Sisterhood, our lost spaces and lost connections.
What we saw at Dyke March is Lesbophobia, real true Lesbian hating. And completely unacceptable. Violence is NEVER ok.
Whether it be Dyke March, loss of Michfest, loss of our bookstores and Lesbian businesses, our gathering spaces, chased out of our OWN commmunities, silenced on the internet, deplatformed, signs ripped out of our hands, beat up, pushed down or even murdered, our Butches and baby Butches pressured to take Testosterone while the Pharmaceutical, Psychiatric, Medical industries grow fat over Female bodies, and male ones too, and the crime of pressuring youth to transition that do not conform, when 80% or more of them if left alone would come out Lesbian or Gay, we will NO LONGER be silenced, or tolerate violence against us. We ARE angry, and we ask that YOU as a Lesbian Sister hear us, with our NAME in your Organization. We will NOT be battered anymore by the GBT, or organizations that no longer represent us.

My Letter to San Francisco Dyke March after the violence against Sister Dykes
The March occurred on June 23rd 2018 when the violence took place:
Letter to San Francisco Dyke March:
Sisters,
I have attended San Francisco Dyke March for close to 20 years from 1994 until 2013.
Unfortunately due to the Recession I could no longer get work in my field or afford rent so I had to relocate to Nebraska. However, I have kept up with my Bay Area Lesbian friends and communities as much as possible from a distance. I also was a Safety Monitor for the Disabled Dyke Cable Car, and tabled for Dyke March severa times selling T shirts, along with attending all those years. It was the highlight of my Pride season to be around that many Lesbians/Dykes of all stripes.
I was shocked and appalled when I found out 12 longtime older OUT Activist Lesbians, many whom I have known personally; and some as friends and allies over the Internet; were attacked by Trans Activists and their allies at San Francisco Dyke March. Neither did your Safety Monitors support them or guide them to safety or stop the harassers. They had to engage the police to stop the mob who swarmed them. Signs were ripped out of their hands, they were pushed to the ground several times, had their heels stepped on. I read what had happened, saw the videos.
These are women that I know, that are nonviolent, that have a RIGHT to be at Dyke March even if they have a difference of opinion. Some of their signs were prescient in the attack endured by Dykes/Lesbians online and off, with physical, sexual and other threats. "We will not be silenced by your violence." They are the kind of activists that were VITAL to creating Dyke/Lesbian community in the first place!!
Hate speech has turned into acts of physical violence, from two Oakland Lesbians and their son viciously murdered by trans activist Dana Rivers who spent many years protesting against Michfest at Camp Trans to constant trolling on every Lesbian and many womyn's groups with threatening hate and rapist speech towards Lesbians, Feminists and women they disagree with. To a hateful display put on at the San Francisco Library by the Degenderettes on Punching Terfs, decorating baseball bats with paint and barbed wire, and stealing our matriarchal symbol the Labryis as a symbol of Lesbian and Amazon Pride, and morphing it into a weapon they threaten to use against any so called 'TERFS', which is a hate word. Nor do we want to be called ":Cis" or 'Queer". I also heard that shirts from the Degenderettes were being sold at Dyke March, "I Punch Terfs". Advocating violence is NEVER acceptable.
We are LESBIANS, DYKE FEMALES out loud and proud. We do not want sex with ANY born males, nor is penis female any way they want to sell it. Bottomline Lesbians have a RIGHT to date who we want, when we want, and engage in the consensual sexacts WE DESIRE between two Female bodies. We also have a right to our own spaces, and to defend Lesbian youth, and encourage them to THINK before transitioning at such a young age, before they really know who they are. That there are other possibilities, which one of the signs addressed. All the side effects going on Testosterone. We all know countless Lesbian women who have been actively pressured to transition, which is now extending to youth.
More and more are starting to detransition after seeing what these hormones do to their bodies, and that what was promised them was smoke and mirrors. Coming back to OWN their Female and Lesbian selves.
But the bottomline is that violence is NEVER acceptable or ganging up on one's so called Sisters, IN A DYKE MARCH which is OUR night of Pride. Built up by Longterm Lesbians such as these Sisters and others who have lived a lifetime both as Lesbians and as Females. There is a Trans March for Trans people the night before. I would not barge into that EXPECTING they accomodate me as a lifelong Dyke and Female, or threaten them with violence.
We will no longer stand for cooptation of our communities, our bodies, our beings or identities or for the continuing censorship and threats of violence or ACTUAL violence from the trans community and their supporters.
We will hold all Lesbian Organizations accountable to actually represent US. Lesbians. Dykes. Born Female women who love and lust and partner with other women, who have lived and created Dyke/Lesbian community together, who long for our Sisterhood, our lost spaces and lost connections.
What we saw at Dyke March is Lesbophobia, real true Lesbian hating. And completely unacceptable. Violence is NEVER ok.
The Dyke March Committee will need to do some soul searching. Do you HONOR your Lesbian and Dyke Elders, us older big Butches, and basically matriarchs of the Dyke Movement who broke ground and territory before it was in, popular or safe, or do you not? Femme and androgynous Dykes too. Is there no room for differing opinions, and like the current Administration any opposition must be silenced with violence, dismissal or false narratives? Because this was nothing short of those men marching in Charlottesville with their torches chanting "Blood and Soil".Except it was 'TERFS got to go". Fortunately none of these women were seriously hurt. They did suffer bruises however. Check out all the hate speech that is said against those who speak out at terfisaslur dot com.

90,000 Years back..that seamless Menstrual Blood Mystery Threadol
This makes the human Female unique, emerging from the animal estrus cycle to the human Female menstrual cycle. Our common Female ancestor can be traced back 90, 000 years. Compared to males we are biologically complex creatures...

Guest Post: Experience at 2018 SF Dyke March by Anonymous Dyke
I marched with 11 women in the San Francisco Dyke March Saturday night (June 23rd). It was a terrible experience. Worse than I was expecting. We got harassed and bullied from the very beginning because of the signs some of us were carrying. Three of my friends got pushed down and had their signs torn up and taken away. But we all kept marching the full length of the march. A sizable crowd followed us and chanted like a mob and surrounded us: Transphobes gotta go! It was pretty awful and we had to get the police for protection. We were totallly non-violent! We were representing lesbian voices and visibility. The hate on these mostly young people's faces -- both men and women-- was frightening. One of my friends got knocked down three times and she kept getting up and carrying her sign even though by the end of the March it was in shreds. Her sign said Biology is not Bigotry. And the other sign said You cannot silence me with violence. She was a true Amazon Warrior and kept marching. The rest of us tried to protect her including her partner who also got knocked down and whose sign got taken away. We finally got the police but they were fairly clueless and at first they thought we were the instigators. One of my friends almost got arrested because the mob tried to paint us as the aggressors. Oh San Francisco -- you used to be such a great place. You kind of suck now. Too much hate. There is a large segment of the trans advocates community who really hate feminist lesbians. They also hate freedom of speech, and their response is one of crushing free speech, as we witnessed, and we're seeing this over and over again not just yesterday. They block free discussion of ideas. For those of us who still believe in democratic expression of ideas-- it's time to step up and make your voices heard now! -Anonymous Dyke

In Response to the Llewelyn article " Why is Queer Magic So Powerful?"
Well being a Lesbian who practices Lesbian magic ever since the Dyke Witches brought me out, I could tell you two reasons why: our energy is NOT tied up in procreation, that is no. 1
No. 2 is the gynomorphic field of pure Female energy, as womanfested particularly at Michfest, which was an INTENSELY MAGICAL and freeing Amazon Nation, 75 to 90% Lesbian. The Goddess is absolutely centered on that Land and a Goddess statue 30 ft tall erected every year for the 3 months womyn inhabited the Land building the Festival each year, the Festival itself then taking it down.
It simply was the most powerful magical affirming place for me as a matriarchal DykeAmazon Warrior/Witch that goes beyond words. Magic was present there everyday, constant drumming the heartbeat of the Land and all manner of ritual...Lesbian Magic fueled it all...it was the most explosive colorful example of Female creativity I have ever witnessed and this was before Burning Man.
One of the most magical.moments for me was the 400 strong Womyns Spiral Dance in 2015. I have been to large womyns rituals, but THAT was the largest I had EVER been to, we took over an entire meadow.
There were other workshops, experiences, and the final night of performances with 1000 womyn strong there in the Acoustic Bowl, which was literally one long beautiful immensely powerful ritual where true DykeAmazon Magic was done that went beyond words, between the gifted singers, Amazons and Priestesses.
Talk about POWERFUL Matriarchal Dyke Magic, that was it, and I was blessed to be part of that Sacred Amazon Tribal Gathering. NEVER have I been so affirmed on EVERY Level as a Dyke, and as a Female as I was at Michfest. Or experienced so many powerful Mysteries packed into a single week. There I was free.

DYKE
Dyke is NOT a term open to bisexuals as Dykes do NOT fuck men. Dykes are LESBIANS. There is no part of Lesbianism or Dyke Being that includes ongoing sexual contact with men.
Bisexuals have the terms queer and pansexual they can add to their repertoire, NOT DYKE.

ON BEING LESBIAN, IT'S AN ENTIRE WORLDVIEW!!!
For me, being a Lesbian is an entire Worldview and Way of Being, and it is completely revolutionary by putting womyn first and foremost in our lives on ALL these levels: sexually, emotionally, intellectually, psychically and spiritually. I worship at the Yoni/Vulva of my choice including my own!! Lesbianism is completely freeing for me, as well as sexually empowering. Lesbianism is an erotic designation; but a spiritual designation also....because for me my Sexuality and Spirituality are One.
Proud Tomboy who Grew up to be Butch like most ButchDykes: Do NOT demonize Tomboy!
PROUD Tomboy who came out as a Butch Dyke. I believe I have that tomboy book.
By demonizing tomboy makes it so much easier to substitute transing to a "real" boy. I soo wanted to be a boy, but NOT because I wanted a penis, but because I did NOT want to do the boring domesticated crap girls are expected to do like play with dolls and play house, imitating the grown up roles of Suzy Homemaker and baby nurturer.
No I wanted the fun adventures boys had, exploring, playing sports, bike riding, tree climbing and running wild. AND the respect and POWER that males had over females. Nor did I want to wear dresses or skirts. I played ice hockey, did martial arts way before most girls did...tomboy was a place I could exist with few role models, models I searched and STILL SEARCH far and wide for. Another form of girl/ womon who RESISTED femininity.
As Feminism rose from 1969 on, at the tender age of 9, PROMISING equality and opportunity with boys/ men, it gave me enormous hope

The Warrior Queens- GUEST POST Pippa Fleming
"The DaddiGirl is about to spill some tea...Y'all don't fool this old dyke. I come from an ancient tribe called lesbian "The Warrior Queens" and remember the days when female born women who loved female born women intimately and as sexual partners understood our uniqueness, herstory and tribal covenants.
This misogynist and patriarchal driven nouveau, pop-cultural invasion and reframing of the female sex and sexuality disguised as gender identity politics and ethics, is nothing but the devil's workshop! Those that are pushing this deception want you caught up in the name game so tough, you don't get to talk about who you truly are. What's your preferred pronoun got everybody scared and confused. I am a strong believer in being in control of naming oneself, it puts the power back into the individual's hands and can eliminate guessing and bullshit assumptions.
But let's be honest peeps...the gender identity agenda that's got you scared to say lesbian, pussy, female, vagina, breasts...the agenda that's got females afraid to say they bleed, get wet, love their clits, coochie bang, get pregnant, have hot flashes...the agenda that's telling females that biology means nothing ( so how you fools think you got to planet earth?...that white fucking Stork)...the agenda that's chipping away at female reproductive rights...the agenda that says females can't be exclusive.
The LGBTQI community used to be a sanctuary for spiritual enlightenment, political savvy, artistic innovation, cultural diversity and yeah bullshit too but damn we were smart. Hell yeah we have to fight the good fight and protect all of our rights...but you will not do it by erasing my lesbian clan, our wisdom, our culture.
True activism is about seeing who's missing from the room and bridging the gaps to reach them. The LGBTQI acronym is supposed to represent our growth at acknowledging our unique differences and identities...We better learn how to say all of our names instead of shaming our names!"

Embodied Female Being and Space
I am NOT feminine. I am FEMALE. Primal Amazon Female. Fiery, Sun sign Leo, deeply emotional Moon in Pisces. The Yin and Yang of me. One is expressed openly to the world, the other well hidden, BOTH a part of me.
I see the World through Lesbian Eyes. AND HAVE ever since the Dyke Witches brought me out in 1981 and I began rituualling with and becoming one of them. Been an Amazon ever since puberty when I got into martial arts in 1974, before it was popular for females to do so.
It gave me an edge many other females lacked. A fearlessness, but also an awareness, HOW to.move about the world in Female Power, along with being introduced to Feminism in 1969 at 9 years old.
Putting females first, foremost forever...to bring forth POWERFUL Female energy, in solidarity, in Sisterhood, made most manifest for 40 years in the modern day Amazonia of the Michigan Womyns Music Festival.
The SHEER POTENCY of sustained Female only space to breathe, to be, to dream to BE, to commune with Goddess, to open up spiritually, the sheer Gynergy, to awaken to Powers we had LONG FORGOTTEN, but awaken to away from Patriarchy and the Concrete jungle, there is NOTHING MORE MAGICAL than womyn and woodz coming together powerfully and discovering our Power and Magic and Sisterhood TOGETHER, something long forgotten. But to LIVE IT year after year to put OUR VALUES first and foremost, to feel our freedom denied to us in the world of men, goes beyond words.
Just watch the first 20 minutes of the Wonder Woman movie and you will catch a small glimpse of what usDykeAmazon types seek with EVERY fiber of our Being, and HAD for 40 years at Michfest.
Elderflower was my first introduction to IMMERSED Female only sporitual and physical space where I open up psychically in a way I cannot anywheres else.
The last Michfest was as glorified as the ending Fireworks, all stops pulled out of our last modern Amazon Matriarchy in 2015, and a Spiral Dance of 400 womyn strong!!! Just simply amazing, goes beyond words, the Goddess fully embodied on that Sacred Land, as She is in the Redwoods..
