Girlfriends magazine recently listed New Orleans as the seventh best place for lesbians to live in the United States of America. One of the nicest parts about New Orleans is that the gay boys, str8s and the dykes play very nicely together and make friends. This past year, I had the great opportunity to attend New Orleans first annual Dyke March as commissioned by the New Orleans chapter of the Lesbian Avengers. Rugby parties are supposed to live forever in the memory of the lucky girl who attends and lives to tell. There are rap groups of varying topics, and impressive breadth, that meet on a monthly basis and provide social events for members.
Topics range from recovery to religion to coming out and more.
Recently New Orleans locals have started a Lesbian Reading Circle for example. Our bisexual sisters should know the community is welcoming, and the atmosphere relaxed as many of our top officers in Tulane queer organizations are out bisexuals. If you wander into our shiny new Lesbian and Gay Community Center they will give you all the information for womyn loving womyn this town can provide. Finally, we have several out and impressive lesbians and bisexual womyn currently in law school. Traditionally, the ladies make an impression on their legal and social community in the law school and outside.
