title: The Other Side of the Fence
author: Naomi, Angela
description: Over the course of their college and post-college years young women take a raw look at sexuality through a not so loud and proud lens on lesbianism, bisexuality, and sexual curiosity. Stacey and Danica, the seemingly perfect couple, must deal with Stacey's boyfriend and her thirst for acceptance and popularity. Alexandra, a heterosexual graduate student, comes to a crossroads when she meets Mya. A mystery lady floats across several state lines to have lesbian rendezvous, but always returns home to her boyfriend and flaunts her homophobic opinions. Stephanie, Lauren, and Rene befriend a freshman and introduce her to a lifestyle of wild parties and drinking. A privately-open lesbian Julia embarks on a new relationship while dealing with her homophobic family. Six years after graduating college, Danielle, returns for Alumni Weekend festivities with her husband; secrets are exposed and the future her marriage is questioned. Their journeys are uniquely different yet similar; parallel lives that sometimes intersect. The young women share six short stories on relationships, love, confusion, death, marriage, religion, alcoholism, and much more.
