Sometimes She Lets Me
Best Butch Femme Erotica
Edited by Tristan Taormino
The Pleasure of Opposites
"Butch/femme is erotic iconography. Butch/femme is bulging jeans, smeared lipstick, stiletto heals, and sharp haircuts. It's about being read and being seen. Sometimes it's about passing or not passing. It's about individual identity and a collective sense of community. It's personal, political. It's a sexual electricity and power exchange. It's the visceral space between the flesh and the imagination." — from the introduction by Tristan Taormino
Does the swagger of a confident butch make you swoon? Do your knees go weak when you see a femme straighten her stockings? In Sometimes She Lets Me, Tristan Taormino chooses her favorite butch/femme stories from the Best Lesbian Erotica series.
Even if you think you know what goes on in the bedroom between femmes and butches, these 22 stories will delight you with erotic surprises. In Joy Parks' delicious "Sweet Thing," the recently arrived town librarian shows a butch baker some new tricks in bed. On a chase through the woods, the stud in "Tag!", by D. Alexandria, find her baby girl by scent alone. And the girl in a pleated skirt gets exactly what she wants from her Daddy in Peggy Munson's "The Rock Wall."
Includes contributions by Alison L. Smith, Joy Parks, S. Bear Bergman, Amie M. Evans, Samiya A. Bashir, Rosalind Christine Lloyd, Kristen Porter, Tara-Michelle Ziniuk, D. Alexandria, Anna Watson, Shannon Cummings, A. Lizbeth Babcock, Sparky, Elaine Miller, Isa Coffey, Skian McGuire, Jera Star, Toni Amato, Peggy Munson, Sandra Lee Golvin, and Sinclair Sexsmith.
