About Me

ToolsForMySpace.com

Radio personality, author, editor, columnist, smartass, workaholic, queer.

Tune in to Sirius radio channel 109 to catch the Diana Cage show. It's weeknights at 10 pm east, 7 pm west. It's talk radio but smarter.

My most recent book is Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide. It's a funny, trans-inclusive look at dating for queers of all genders. My other books include Box Lunch: The Laypersons Guide to Cunnilingus, The On Our Backs Guide to Lesbian Sex, Threeways: Fulfill Your Ultimate Fantasy, On Our Backs: The Best Erotic Fiction 2, and Bottoms Up: Writing About Sex, and Hustlers.

I write a regular column about sex and relationships for Frontiers magazine, Velvetpark, and write a daily blog at Ourchart.com. I'm the managing editor of Velvetpark magazine and the former editor of the lesbian sex magazine On Our Backs.

Here's what people are saying about Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide

"There's something deliciously wicked about Diana Cage's hilarious new lesbian dating survival guide, Girl Meets Girl. From the opening admonishments (like "go down on a bicurious girl today!") to more advanced lessons in lesbian attraction (turns out dykes don't care if you look like Brando in Streetcar or Brando in Island of Dr. Moreau as long as you have confidence), Cage's witty little book is a must-have pocket guide to all things dyke amour. A perfect read for anyone who wants to navigate the brave new world of lesbian dating where sexual orientation is no longer tied to anatomy, Girl Meets Girl will help you fall in love, deal with the exes and do all the naughty things in between. Girl meets Girl is witty, snarky and effective and at the end this book will have you, too, screaming, "Show me the pussy!" -Diane Anderson-Minshall, Executive Editor, Curve Magazine

"Diana Cage the former editor of On Our Backs during one of its most interesting and perverted eras, as well as writing nasty, literate porn in such collections as Bottoms Up and Box Lunch, Cage brings her up-to-date sense of queer reality to Girl Meets Girl, and it's a total relief. She's describing a sexual universe that others will find refreshingly familiar, where femme and trans identities are taken for granted, Friendster addictions are as common as prescriptions for Wellbutrin and everybody just wants some sex sans drama. If you need some help figuring out how to get it then Cage is your girl." Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Xtra magazine

And he vows his passion is Infinite, undying -


Lady, make a note of this: One of you is lying.
