Peaches' Realm

Welcome to my corner of the world wide web, Peaches' Realm, where I will try to give you an insight into the world of Dyke Drama ~ movies about lesbians, by lesbians, with lesbians ~ any kind of film, that in any way portrays lesbians.

I will tell you what I think of the films I have seen, and what films are out there, even those I haven't seen. If somebody has given me any details about a film, I will tell you. Recommendations or warnings, it will be here.

I'm Peaches. I'm a lesbian, and I am passionate about films. All kinds of films. This site though, is dedicated to films like Bound, Better Than Chocolate, Fire, and Antonia's Line. Films that somehow, some way, relate to the lives of lesbians. Or as I prefer ~ dykes. This site is dedicated to Dyke Drama. Welcome, and enjoy!

Films!!  PlanetOut PopcornQ Movies ~ excellent listings. If you can't find the film you're looking for here, maybe that's because it doesn't exist? Sadly, TV And Film Grrl no longer exists. It was the best site ever about lesbians in film and on television. I will miss it. The Internet Movie Database ~ Excellent source of films, all kinds of films. Photos, actresses, gossip. It's all here. And the new and improved site Movieweb is marvellous. SciFlicks.com ~ Excellent site dedicated to SciFi films. Photos, quotes, and more. Another site worth looking at for lesbian films, is Lesbian Flicks. And the official site for the best film ever: The Matrix

My fave place online: Gingerbeer ~ The lesbian guide to London. Do have a look at Gingerbeer Messageboards! It's fun and friendly and it's the best online lesbian community I have ever seen.

Lesbian sites apart from Gingerbeer: Girl Gets Girl is kind of sweet. And they have a list of lesbian films too. And if you are Croatian, Cro-Lesbian might be the place for you. Gossip and pics at Lesbian Celebrities. UK lesbian magazine Diva has their own website. And check out glbtq - the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer online encyklopedia. Oh and if you're planning a trip to Lesvos, check out Sappho Travel.

Feel like buying any of the films you've read about here? Gay's the Word is one place where you can look for them. Rainbow Sauce is another good place to search for the goods you want. And there is always the lesbian online shop for books and films: Libertas ~ this is the place to look when it's the lesbian stuff your after. And don't forget Silver Moon. Yes, the London-based Woman bookshop with lesbian books is still alive. Just relocated. Check it out! And we also have Lesbian Shopper, and Wolfe Video. And for excellent fetish gear, visit Fairy GothMother! After that, why not go to Cobra Whips and keep shopping...? And of course, there's always London Fetish Fair.

Women, history, and more: Women of Achievement ~ don't let anyone tell you there were no magnificent women in history. Lesbian Herstory Archives ~ excellent. The F-word ~ Feminist site, you'll find more sites listed on this one, and some interesting reading. Women warriors in history. Women warriors today: Guerrilla Girls and Riot Grrrl Europe. And there's an excellent site about 1970s Lesbian feminism. If you're into photography, like me, do visit the Dorothea Lange website. Be sure to visit The Little Review as well.

An excellent comic, Jane's World is where you meet Jane and her friends. Fabulous and hilarious about lesbian  drama. Remember to check in on Jane daily! Animal fun: Mutts. And the most excellent political comic: Boondocks. And we mustn't forget about the classic: Garfield and Snoopy!

Stockholm Pride is the place to be, every summer! Don't miss it! And QX.se has a decent guide to Gay & Lesbian Stockholm, Gothenburg and more. And Qruiser is the Swedish gay/lesbian/queer community to join.

Loggia ~ Myth, Gods & Goddesses ~ lots of information at this site! If you like this kind of stuff, don't miss out on MotherGoddess! And The Ancient World Web has lots of info too.  And please visit The Shrine of the Forgotten Godesses.

Do you remember Loesje? If you do, check this out. If you don't, then you should really check this out!

Kael's Page ~ about transgender and butch/femme. Fabulous site! And of course, Del LaGrace Volcano. Another site worth looking at is Leslie Feinberg's Transgenderwarrior.org

Probably the best band in the world: R.E.M. Other fab music sites include RollingStone.com and Motown. Skin from Skunk Anansie has her own website. And why not visit Arrested Development? And an excellent woman, with excellent lyrics: Tracy Chapman. Total Garbage is a great place for Garbage-fans. And another excellent site is Melissa Etheridge Information Network. Don't forget to visit Björk and PJ Harvey while you're at it! And Sheryl Crow has a nice place on the web too. Out and proud k.d. lang has her own fab site as well.

Find out more about Alice Walker, an amazing author. Another amazing woman is Swedish author and journalist Johanne Hildebrandt. Oh, and one of my few fave men: Michael Moore. Read Stupid White Men and watch Bowling for Columbine. The Emma Goldman Papers is a place to learn more about an amazing woman. And do take a look at the Louise Brooks Society. She was quite a cool woman. As was Tallulah Bankhead, who once said "My father warned me about men and booze, but he never mentioned a word about cocaine and women". Oh and do stop by Jeanette Winterson! And Sarah Waters, the author of Tipping the Velvet, has a fab website.

Human rights are important. We can never settle down and think that we've done enough. Amnesty International don't. They keep fighting.
