quaint - strange, peculiar, or unusual in an interesting, pleasing, or amusing way lesbian - of, pertaining to, or characteristic of female homosexuality Strangely pleasing dyke? I dunno. Those are the only thoughts I have on the subject. I wonder what the strange ways she pleases are........... :tongue:
I don't know-but I never liked-her poetry-the damn dashes were in many ways-highly irritating-and it never did a thing for me.
I used to like her poetry, back in the days where I was a total poetry nut, but it's been many years since I've read or written any.
Goodness no booshie! Geez, is that all you ever think about? Wait. I already know the answer to that one.
There’s a great deal of debate in scholarship as to whether Emily Dickinson was a lesbian or not, but there is no debate as to her true genius and unique (and easily recognizable) writing style. In my opinion she probably was, and If she was alive today she'd almost certainly take advantage of the legalization of gay marriage in the state of massachusetts. Hotwater
The thread is about Dickinson being a lesbian. I certainly wouldn't expect her to write about penises. (unless she's writing about penises being evil)
Much of her work was edited long after her death. The word penis out of context could mean the difference between a carpet muncher with a strap-on, and a hopeless romantic :H hotwater
