Kiss the Girls

October 29, 2004 | Filed Under Pop Culture

For those of you not already familiar with AfterEllen.com, it is a wonderful site that provides reviews and commentary on the depiction of lesbians and bisexual women in media (especially television and film). Their recent analysis of lesbian kisses on TV points out that most of the girl-girl kisses seen on the air this season have been between straight characters, who kiss for a variety of reasons, or between one-shot guest characters. Lesbian relationships on the boob tube (!) have been going downhill, especially since the end of Buffy (which positively portrayed Willow in two lesbian relationships); in fact the best lesbian relationships on TV today are on The L Word, which is only seen on the premium channel Showtime.
