Babeland fave, Tristan Taormino hosted a screening of Spike Lee?s new flick "She Hate Me," the other night. Tristan was the lesbian advisor for the film, an unlikely farce about a healthy, intelligent, and good looking man who falls upon hard economic times, so resorts to inseminating lesbians who want to get pregnant. Given the number of dykes this Vulva knows who want to, or have gotten pregnant through donor insemination, I thought the movie had some potential.Well, Spike, I think you ought to stick to matters closer to home. The movie was a big, fat bust. The dykes were totally unreal. If you think the lesbians in the ?L Word? seem superficial and one-dimensional, multiply that by 10 and you get Spike's spin on gay girls. We're talking straight men's fantasy material, except for the butches, who simply got played for laughs. The lesbians of color at the screening I went to were almost universally excited to see themselves represented on screen, only to be bitterly disappointed by the cartoonish treatment of the characters. The one Asian woman was totally exoticized, to the point of eating chicken feet in bed to help create a son. Give me a break!And what about the sex? Imagine 18 lesbians in one movie, and we get to see them all have sex with a man. The two lesbian sex scenes were shot through gauze and pan quickly away, while the hetero fucking is lovingly lit and lingered over. There aren?t any other lesbian-themed movies full of women of color with a budget this size, so this could have been incredible. Still, it's nice to see the representation, shortcomings aside. I know Tristan?s input saved it from being even worse: Spike wanted to end it with the guy in a three way relationship with the main dyke couple.So readers, I came away deflated and disillusioned, not a happy state for a giant pussy. People, I beg of you: please go to film school and start making some sexy movies with interesting characters and storylines! Movies that expand our minds and hearts and clits. In the meantime, I'd rather cue up some porn. If you're with me and aren't sure where to start, check out the Woman's Guide to Good Porn.
