The L Word Thing: It's All an Evil Plot or Watch Us Multiply!


Let’s take a trip through time/space/time. Back to when I only had a tiny inkling that I was a lady lover(and by tiny inkling I mean I had already kissed several females and knew that that was where it’s at, but pushed it to the back of my head for fear of being eaten by dragons...Huge. Mormon. Dragons.)

Little babydyke Krysta was at home alone (a rare occurrence) and browsing the T.V. channels (not so rare), when I stumbled upon an episode of The L Word.

Guys. It was a Carmen/Shane sex scene. Needless to say...

IT BLEW MY MIND!

It was the one where they play Carmen’s too hot game. I tuned in just when Carmen was convincing Shane to stay and play the game and my eyes were immediately glued to the screen. I watched that scene with such rapt attention that I did not notice my brother walking down the stairs.

“What are you watching? The game is on.”


I rapidly changed the channel.

“Nothing! Here you go!”

I tossed the remote to him and raced up the stairs. I ran into my room and jumped onto my bed, thoughts spinning and heart racing.


The point is, my friends, is that The L Word totally catapulted me into full blown sexual-orientation-confusion-landAnd from what I’ve heard from my other lezzy friends, that is a common occurrence amongst the Lesbians in my age bracket.

Even my gayman friend Chris was affected...

Chris watching Alice with Tasha: “Guys? I think I’m confused.”
Me: “About what?”
Chris: “I think I like Lesbians”
Me: “No, Chris. It’s just The L Word. It has that effect on people.”


I’ve also had friends say that the best way to get a straight girl in bed with you is to have her watch the first season.

So my question is,

Is The L Word just part of a plot to make an army of Brainwashed Lesbian robots? 
Or, is it just quality television that has drama and sex appeal and just so happens to be about lesbians?




I think it’s the Robot thing.
