20,000 lesbians in the desert: welcome to the Dinah, a world without men

For five days in Palm Springs, Arwa Mahdawi entered an alternate reality where gay women celebrate each other with pool parties, dancing and debauchery

It’s my second time at the Dinah, also known as the largest girl festival in the world. I’m staying at the Hilton in Palm Springs, which is hosting the famous Dinah pool parties, and the hotel feels like a homosexual harem.

It’s a surreal experience: for a few days the world is turned upside down, the minority is suddenly the majority. Everywhere you look, lesbians are smiling, drinking, dancing, kissing. There are a few men around – staff working the event and guys who have been dragged along by lesbian friends – but they are hard to spot. It’s basically entirely queer women in attendance.

The party is named after the Dinah Shore golf tournament, started in 1972 by the eponymous entertainer. Dinah Shore wasn’t a lesbian (she’d be doing somersaults in her grave if she knew what her moniker was attached to now), but golf seems to attract a lot of lesbians.

There are vast numbers of former homosexuals, both men and women. That is one of the many truths about the “gay life” that homosexuals and agenda pushers do not want the public to know.

Hopefully a vast war will intervene and stop the destruction that will ensue.

I don’t want a career in politics but I am glad you pinged me! Keep me on the list, I like to be informed. I hope the majority of the perverts are knocked off - the position, I mean...

A world run by commie perverts. What could go wrong....

The vast majority of sex perverts are dems/commies.

I thought years ago if I ever ran for any office, I’d make a small leaflet about my skeletons, so they’d be all out in the open. :-)

These are FAD lesbians. Not the real thing. It's like the "lesbians" you see at night clubs. They want to look edgy and hip, and more importantly, gain attention. Later in life when they settle down with their man, they talk about the "phase" they went through.

Most lesbians in long-term commitments look like the ones I posted. Hands down.

Understood. You’re probably correct about that too. (I just want to focus on their destructive politics rather than their personal problems. )

Dang! Somebody ought to let Burt Reynolds know.

It sounds like something he'd be really into.

Lilith represents rebellion. That’s the bottom line.

Wow! These days it just seems to be the coolest thing, the most stylish thing, the most Avant Garde thing, the most “look at me, I stepped out of the closet, me” thing to do for people. Look at me! I am cool and Liberal and totally free to become a carpet muncher!
This is the new norm. If you are Heterosexual you are abnormal these days...tsk, tsk, tsk...
