A friend of mine has a radio show. Each day of the week there is a different show with its own topic. Wednesday shows are called "#HonestyHour". For this particular show, listeners can submit questions to be talked about. Since I am a part of the team, I submitted a question. It wasn't really a question; more or less a simple statement to be talked about further. I wanted peoples' opinion on stud on stud relationships. For those of you who do not know, a "stud" is a lesbian who takes on a more "masculine" or "aggressive" side than their counterpart. The reason why the topic of stud on stud relationships is controversial is because so many people think that studs should only date femmes ("femmes" are lesbians who take on the more "girly" side). Personally, I believe that love is love and whoever judges someone's relationship based on how it looks from the outside is simply taking themselves way too seriously. In a heterosexual relationship people don't judge like that. Is it because there are labels in the gay community? Are there no labels in the heterosexual realm? Bad boys, good girls, preacher's kids, preppies, etc. I really don't see much of a difference. Makes you wonder if "being different" is really THAT bad to the point that every faction must be looked at under a microscope and then criticized. *shakes head*
By the way, my friend's radio show is not only about homosexuality. Not even. It is very open minded and opinionated. There is no censorship. There is a show every day of the week. As we always say: you can definitely find one that fits you. Monday is "Beautiful People", which is about empowerment and positivity. Tuesday is "Debate Team", where controversial topics are debated on. Wednesday is "#HonestyHour and Soul Therapy". Thursday is the most amazing show of the week: "Poetry Night", where people recite poetry, freestyle, and sing. Friday is "The Weekly Cool". Saturday shows rotate. If you're ever bored with nothing to do around nine at night, I highly recommend calling in. You won't regret it. 760.888.5871
I've never heard of a stud on stud relationship before. I'll be honest though, when I think of two people in a relationship, I always imagine the masculine and the feminine. Even in the gay community, I've never really seen two masculine men/women in a relationship before. So I'm leaving this post with a little bit of knowledge today.
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting and like Nesha said I have never heard of stud on stud or femme stereotypes. However, I am also pretty naive to a lot of things so this was very informing! I wanted to ask if your friends radio show is broadcasted in memphis on public radio stations and if so, what is the station? It would be good to pop in every now and then to listen!
ReplyDeleteVery cool. I have friends in all sorts of relationships, gay and straight, and this is a discussion that comes up sometimes. Like Hannah suggested, can you let us know the station?
