i’m not a part of the bunnyfemme community but that doesn’t mean i can’t appropriate their culture to serve my aesthetic
i’m still mostly enjoying Dykette in its similarity to books like A Touch of Jen or Woo Woo where there’s an exploration of this intentionally ridiculous social circle and main character.
however book’s idea of the lesbian experience does feel incredibly “white upper class new york” in a way that i don’t feel is entirely intentional and the further i get into it the less i can tell which parts the author wants to be ridiculous and which parts are supposed to be “relatable”
apparently i need to learn more about Jenny Fran Davis because i just finished Dykette (honestly loved it, thought it was absolutely insane) and assumed it was a satirization of some of the worst aspects of Queer culture, but now im learning that she might actually believe in a lot of stuff she wrote about in that book and stands by the main character’s actions? like, the main character is so frustrating (full of misogyny, judgmental, extremely jealous, let’s her anxiety control her) and treats her partner so, so terribly, but i thought that was the point???
It’s summer 2013. You’re 11. Your grandma just passed away. Your family send you upstairs to play on the computer while they arrange the funeral. You watch the short-lived children’s satirical series DNN on iplayer. They have Lucy Spraggan on as a guest. She sings Lighthouse. You instantly become a lesbian. This is really bad timing.

I mostly read horror and thrillers but if you like any of these reviews, give me a follow on The Storygraph! I’ve been using The Storygraph since 2022 so I’m super glad it’s become more popular lately! It’s way better than Goodreads and now that everyone I know isn’t just exclusively using Goodreads, I’m excited to start weaning myself off of there completely.
has anyone else read dykette…i’m like so perplexed by it it made me so mad but i’m mostly like ???
