No Labels, No Limits?

I find it ironic - not to mention depressing - that the RainbowNetwork.com website, which advertises itself in its title line as "Rainbow Network.com - No labels, no limits," divides its member sections into compartments labeled "men's room" and "dyke's domain," offering no section at all whose labels are sufficiently unlimited to make me (as a bisexual who does not identify with the label "dyke" and does not wish to be gender-segregated) feel at all included.

You have a fair complaint there, but I feel pretty friendly towards rainbownetwork.com given that it's where I met Anna and is therefore the cause of much of my current happiness :0)

doesn't surprise me too much as the "rainbow" is supposed to be for "diversity" and the GL movement who uses it so much so often excludes bisexuality, trans, fetish, non-mologamous relations, etc...

I think I'd be more inclined to hang out in the dyke's domain.
