'Lesbian Beds' - a series by Tammy Rae Carland (2002)

I love this series sooooooo much

i want to wear white

I think its so beautiful how people in general just seek connection and fulfillment like everyone just wants to be known and understood and comfortable.. and with nan goldins photography (specifically both greer and cookie's weddings) like how lucky to have built this found family and to find "true" love like someone who loves you so much and completely understands you. like oh my god the relief on their faces is so clear the deep breath knowing that not only do they themselves love someone deeply but someone loves them. Those two photos specifically also reminded me of Venus in Paris is Burning, when she's talking about how she wants a normal, happy, life, to wear white and get married in a church. How simple is that? She never got to experience that indescribable joy, love, and safety. it all just breaks my heart i dont know if this makes any sense

me and you + you and me

I've noticed within various conversations that 'us' as a pronoun is very intimate. This is easier to spot in this new age of seeing a baby deer and cat cuddling and comparing them to your own relationship with someone, a new wave of bonding- and within this context, I think the word 'us' holds something very delicate and deep. It's easy to say me and you, as both parties are still their own entities and hold that certain independence and separation. But when one uses 'us', the parties are merged into one collective unit. I almost hesitate to say 'us', deleting it quickly and replacing it with the former, a fear of that casual intimacy. I think this simple change represents something larger, with both platonic and romantic relationships. does this make any sense....please let me know..

its me and kimya dawson against the world
