Marge's Lesbian Fantasies.
I am sorry, I consider the queering of our most beloved heterosexist characters to be totally blog-worthy.
But maybe that's just me.

...Yeah....Except for the fact that it was Homer's fantasy of Marge kissing a woman... (you know, the ACCEPTABLE kind of lesbian kiss.)
well and the only 'real' representation of lesbians we see is through Patty who is a very negative character...
Who was, to be fair, an unlikeable character long before we knew she was a lesbian...
Didnt' she become MORE likeable when she became a lesbian? I remember an episode where she was adopting a baby from a foreign country where she was pretty close to likeable!
You're forgetting about Lisa's gym teacher, Ms. Pommelhorse.
I think he's Mr. Pommelhorse now.
If it's just Homer's fantasy, then this barely relevant, let alone noteworthy.
Yeah, sorry, women kissing as a titillating fantasy for men is nothing new, and certainly not remotely worthy of celebration.
Are Marge Simpson and Lindsey Neagle heterosexist?
Although I don't see how Marge is a heterosexist character -- is it something specific about certain episodes or what?
I don't know how this is really negative. This was Homer's fantasy and he certainly isn't a person people want to model themselves after.
Strange, for some reason it seemed to me that it is imagination Marge... ;)
I wish I'd seen the episode with Marge's lesbian fantasies; I only caught the one where it was Homer fantasizing.
Yeah doesn't count if it is Homer's fantasy. Now if it Marge's that would be different...
oh :( was this really a homer fantasy?
i've always felt so bad for Marge,
this photo would have been so awesome if she had been the one fantasizing
I've seen Homer have his own not-so-straight moments more than I've seen him fantasize about Marge and other women. "Damn sexy Flanders!"
