About Me

Dramanonymous.com is a site where the mature, savvy, sage and at times incredibly sarcastic member of the GLBT community may speak unrestrained. It is for those who have moved past the typical dyke drama which is too often found on websites aimed at our population. DA is a diverse group: we are lesbians, dykes, bisexuals and transgenders who are single, partnered, monogamous, polyamorous, young, not-so-young and with varied political leanings. While all of our site members are queer in some regard, it is not what defines our lives.

Or course we care about queer issues but we also care about which child protection laws Britney Spears broke this week or if she's back in rehab. Then there's Lindsay to worry about. And let's not forget Paris.

Dramanonymous features an active lesbian message board and publishes articles concentrated primarily on queers in the arts.

Softkey Left softkey Right

My Interests

Sarcasm, inappropriate remarks, random thoughts, our coworkers' bathroom habits, what we had for dinner, what we had for lunch, cooking in general, bragging about our adorable pets, current events, Tom Cruise's descent into madness, fantasy football, laughing at the existence of fantasy fishing, cycling, golf, what we're reading in the loo, popular culture and not so popular culture, support and advice, film, literature, music, rambling on about ourselves and our observations on life...

I'd like to meet:

If you've moved past the drama and on into real life, Dramanonymous is for you. We're an intelligent, quirky and irreverent bunch but also warm-hearted and welcoming. We come together to discuss the news, our navel lint, to find a shoulder to cry on or to just distract ourselves from the tediousness of the day. It's a place to read an interesting article. It's a place to connect. It's a place to pic whore yourself or your pet. It's a distraction. It's not much but it's better than what you're supposed to be doing.

If you can relate then come join us!

We are always looking for writers to contribute to the site. If you'd like to write for DA please contact us!

Music:

Jim Marcus of Die Warzau , Carrie Lydon , Courtney Robbins , Chris Pureka , Beth Arentsen , all '80s music, every arena rock band that was big in the '70s or '80s but now finds themselves playing county fairs...

In addition, we love all queers with a guitar and a brick wall to stand against for publicity photos.

Bascially, our musical tastes are as diverse as our membership. Folk, alt country, classical, metal, punk and even Barry Manilow make it onto our iPods.

Movies:

We watch them. Always interested in emerging directors and writers. Indie films are a favorite.Eagerly anticipating the release of Changing Spots

Television:

Some of us watch it. Other members don't even own one.

Books:

We can read! Hooked on Phonics definitely worked for us. Look! We even spelled "definitely" correctly!

Heroes:

The much maligned platypus.

Please Don’t Scare the Mommies

Identity. It is a fundamental human construct. It's interesting to watch my kids move from the puppy dog-level questions of "Who are you?" and "What's that?" to the infinitely more complex question ...

I Was Knocked Up By A Woman In Lime Green Stretch Pants

I was talking with my son this morning about the new kids' movie, Enchanted. He said he didn't want to go see it because a woman dies in the movie. He continued by describing a scene from a commercia...

Queer and Trembling

Lately I've found myself contemplating that eternal question, "What's love got to do with it?" an inquiry which is second in significance only to "Don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?" (Ans...

From Glam to Gritty - Itty Bitty Titty Committee

A movie named Itty Bitty Titty Committee can certainly bring intrigue on its own, but knowing that the film comes from the mind and hands of Jamie Babbit - director of the hilariously campy queer clas...

These are the Dykes in my Neighborhood. And Robert Frost.

My high school English teacher, Mrs. Miller, an ill-tempered, painfully thin woman, always told her students that only once we understood why we shouldn't begin a sentence with the word 'because' coul...

Cross-Country Gym Norms and the Archetypal Diner

You get used to different things in different places. That's the US Magazine take on a Scientific American concept. (The Cat Fancy version, while insightful, dwells too long on the eating habits of ca...
