Was watching Covert Affairs, starring Piper Perabo from my one of my fav. movies – Imagine Me & You, when I suddenly had an idea.. won’t us lezbians make good spies??
Think about it.. those of us who are still in the closet have to ‘fake it’ all the time.. saying lies to prevent people from knowing the truth.. staying constantly on our toes so we won’t get find out.. making sure all, if not most, of our emotions are in check so as not to betray how we really feel inside.. pretending to like guys just to keep up an appearance.. hiding our whereabouts from family and friends so we can go meet up with our girlfriends.. ensuring our actions and lies are consistent so we can continue to live inside the closet.. simply put, we are EXPERT at HIDING who we really are and pass off as someone we are not, convincingly..
Additionally, all the false pretense that are eating at us makes us melancholy and ‘distant’.. we are deeply tormented, yet we can’t tell anyone about it.. we are ‘complicated’.. we live a double life.. and when we finally come out, those closest to us might not be able to handle the truth or to forgive us for lying to them.. they might continue to deny who we really are.. or they might learn to accept us regardless..
Aren’t all these traits happen to be what is commonly believed as characteristics of a spy??
