Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 2007

It’s point/counterpoint for the lesbian set!

Lipstick is the femmey-femme of the pair, while Dipstick is the eternal tomboy. Together, they are here to help whip the most precious lesbian commodity—relationships—into shape. From finding a date to staying together, they help readers navigate the wild world of discovery that pulls up shortly after the U-haul drives away—how to deal with exes, emotional baggage, and sexual dilemmas. Along with pointers about what not to wear, the authors provide a list of the ten signs it’s not going to work out.

Gina Daggett and Kathy Belge write the “Lipstick & Dipstick” column for Curve magazine.

These two crack me up! I can't wait for the monthly Curve magazine to arrive to read their column, now I get to savour their advice in a book. The rapport between Lipstick & Dipstick is outrageous - I would love to spend hours with them! Check out the glossary- essential!

This review is from: Lipstick's and Dipstick's Essential Guide to Lesbian Relationships (Paperback)

I am loving your book soooooo much..It took a little while to get used to your style and I don't like the work RACK ( very male used by sports guys) to describe a woman's breasts, or Chic, but I was able to get past that. I love your advice and it's very funny but also right on, which is not easy to do!! I am about half way through and don't want it to END. I feel like I'm getting to know the women behind the butch/femme photos. Lip and Dip you got it going on!! This is the BEST lesbian advice book I have read up to now. Retts

From those elephant-in-the-room issues to the nitty-gritty, this book covers it all in a sparkling, witty language. The give and take between Lipstick and Dipstick and their differing approaches--and even opinions--on the issues they cover is refreshing.
