We've already warmed your stony little hearts with the story of Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon, octagenarians who were married in Cali yesterday.
But getting your gay on isn’t as easy for some. Ann Bauer in Salon writes about how she fell for a woman named Gisele after divorcing her husband of 20 years. Turns out falling for someone doesn’t necessarily include falling into bed. Ann, who can’t quite bring herself to knock sensible shoes with Gisele, eventually figures out that her love interest probably isn't the best presence in her life anyway.
It’s a good read. And if you get too frustrated by all the built up sexual tension, go ahead and watch the hopelessly adorable montage from our favorite lesbian movies below. We're so grateful for women who hang out together and actually have sex with each other. If the ladies from Sex and the City would just strap on and get it over with, the world might be a slightly more interesting place--at least the movie would have been less of a train wreck.
