The Straights Can Learn from Us


Many of my straight friends have read our book.  A few of them have told me that we should write a book for them or that our advice is good for straight couples too.  

Well, turns out, the hets do have lots to learn from the queer couples of the world.  A study out of the University of San Diego says so, anyway. 

Even if we identify as butch or femme, we're much better at shunning domestic roles.  Butches cook and do dishes. Femmes can change the oil and take out the trash.  Amazing.  We gays are way better at sharing household chores and childcare.  And apparently that makes our relationships happier. 

"It all comes down to greater equality in the relationship," said Robert-Jay Green author of the study. "Research shows that lesbian and gay couples have a head start in escaping the traditional gender role divisions that make for power imbalances and dissatisfaction in many heterosexual relationships."

Well, Robert-Jay Green must have read the chapter in our book entitled "I hate unloading the dishwasher."  Lip & Dip could have told you all this.  So all you straighties out there, go get a copy of our book and see what you can learn.

QUESTION :: Losing My Wife to Lesbians

Dear Lipstick & Dipstick:
I’m a straight man in a great long-term marriage. My wife and I recently started renting porn and all she ever wants to watch are lesbians. At first, it was a turn on, but now I’m concerned. Is she a lesbian?
Losing My Wife to Lesbians

Lipstick:
Don’t worry mister man—it sounds like your wife is just embracing her sexuality. Halleluiah! I hope she tells all her friends and it catches on like a wildfire across California! No need to be threatened by her craving for cunnilingus, it doesn’t mean she’s looking for a little lesbian of her own. From what I hear, most men dream of having a wife like her, so instead of feeling shaky and insufficient, pay close attention, get on your knees and thank Sappho that your wife’s open enough to admit she’s turned on by a little girl-on-girl action. Lucky you.

Dipstick: And while you’re on your knees, why not practice some of those moves your porn star friends are so fond of. My guess is your lady is not so much longing for the lesbians, but the kind of pleasure they can provide. Shave your whiskers and get busy, boy!
