Girls Not Kissing

So, I picked up a video this week at the local video store that looked promising. "Girls Kissing", a film by Barbara K. Lee. The cover promises to be a "documentary exploring the politics of 'girl on girl' action. More importantly, it has a cover photo of two cute girls kissing. Sold. Up to the register I go.

I should have read the back cover.

Not the back cover photos, of porn stars like Alisha Klass and Cassidey (one of my favorites!). Oh no. The text, where it says:

"Consideration is given to the medias (sic) representation of sexuality, pop cultures (sic) effect on social change, women's roles, and society in general".

Being a visually oriented guy, I missed all the warning signs. "Documentary". "Politics". The fact that it's directed by a woman. :)

Translation: it's all talk.

What it's missing: Girls Kissing.

Let a guy, like myself - and I am volunteering - direct the video and all 68 minutes of it would have been wall-to-wall girls kissing.

Cute girls. Femme girls. Butch girls. All shapes and sizes of girls.

Kissing. Non-stop.

Oh, yeah. I could have had the same porn stars and "sex experts" blabbing on about the topic in general. But, they would be on split screen. On half of the screen, for the whole 68 minutes, would be - girls kissing.

On beds.

On couches.

Standing up.

Laying down.

In the shower.

In a park.

Fully dressed.

In lingerie.

Lips.

Tongues.

Girls Kissing.

And I'd win the "Best Documentary" award, hands down.

I want my $3.95 back.
