tips on driving in Tokyo
Dec. 26th, 2011 08:28 pmThe title of this entry is my favorite metaphor for what it's been like jumping back into the dating pool as a trans lesbian after 15 years of monogamous marriage: you learn to drive, then you take mass transit for 15 years, then you're driving again - in Tokyo.
I had lunch with fellow trans lesbian M, who went Full Time and got the Grand Snip many years ago and has much more experience of such things than I do. She had two observations about women who are significantly more accustomed to relationships with other women compared to those who are at least as accustomed to men.
So what do you think? Hooey? Or truey?

- The low-on-men women (LOMs?), says M, have a lower tolerance for expressions of anger.
- As irritating as high-on-men women may find eagerness in men, to a degree it's tolerated and even expected & rewarded. LOMs, on the other hand, don't put this expectation much on other women. To them eagerness is another warning sign.
