When I wrote my comic "Revenge of the Lesbian Folk-Singer" back in 2002 I
was trying (among other things) to satirize 1980's political
correctness (and incorrectness). The title was meant to refer back to
old B movie and pulp magazine salaciousness of the "Vampire Lesbos on
the Moon!" sort. At the time that seemed pretty funny to me.
Last night, I was watching George Takei talk about what's going on in
Arizona, and I realized there's nothing funny about some middle aged
white guy making jokes that rely on other people's sexuality, ironically
or not.
So I'm going to be changing the title of the piece
(which I've been serializing here and on Tumblr). Starting next
week, it's "The Revenge of the Feminist Folk-Singer" (which even
alliterates!)
