TATU, International Disgrace of Russia New!
February 10, 2003
To be aware of all the responsibility we consider “Tatu” to be the international disgrace of Russia, mostly a disgrace, a shame for us, lesbians. 

About Lesbiru.Com
Lesbiru.com the first comprehensive national service for Russian-speaking lesbians, launched in August, 2001. It offers sharp graphics, original content and smart articles. The most special thing about it is that this site is created by lesbians on a strictly voluntary basis. Is geared to the social and leisure interest of a vast community of lesbians, it has no pornographic images and offers relevant content including indepth, timely news (both Russian and international), events, personals, culture (music, cinema, literature, photography, life-style), society, health, family, money and careers, coming out, entertainment, message boards, humor, etc.

Being a butch
Springing from historic origin, butch has to be strong and brave, well to do (in any terms), independent and he should never cry.  "Yeah, that's me!" - you'll say, dropping your eyes decently, and just another pretty woman would dash into your strong arms, to present herself forever. 

Interview: VolgaVolga - the person and the chat
VolgaVolga, editor-in-chief Lesbiru.com, is a complicated person. Her project VolgaVolga was the first lesbian page in the russian internet. Nowadays, she’s leading not only National Russian Lesbian Portal LesbiRu, but a whole bundle of other serious projects also. For the five years that she’s been VolgaVolga nobody interviewed her, so we decided to fix that regrettable mistake. 

Politics: Who has offended deputy Mitrofanov?
A bill, proposed by deputy Mitrofanov on May 13, in fact wounds not only, or even not so much, lesbians, but mainly childless women in our country. Because this way of life, accompanied with "baby birth reduction and population cutting-down" serves for the bill' author as a reason for regarding women like society enemies and, consequently, for placing them into prison within 5 years. 

Celebrities >> Frida and her ”Vice squad” 
Her real name is translated from Latin as “God’s favor”, but all her creative life both artists and friends have known her exclusively as Frida. This being her scenic pseudonym which originated from the English word “freedom”. 

Lesbian ads: “Come on, girls, come over here! Perfume, lipstick, tanks!..”
In spite of the fact that many straight men show their interest and feel pleasantly when watching two women ruptured by each other, lesbians don’t appear in commercial ads often. But if they do it’s never unnoticed. First persons to notice it are lesbians itself that instantly pay their attraction to their “spirit sisters” and keep on watching them all the way. 

Real story: "Does your mother really know?"
“Do you parents know?” - I often hear that question from my lesbian mates and as I answer positively they sigh “You’re lucky!..” And it’s useless to explain them that I have been working for three long years upon our relations to reach mutual understanding with my parents. 

Real story: "Real pure dyke"
"I know that I’m absolutely typical. It’s almost written on my forehead that I’m lesbian. As a child I thought that I hated stereotypes. «Won by that we’ve been fighting with», as people say. Where the fuck is my personality?.."

“Tasty Bits”: Russian lesbians are going to Hollywood
Once upon a time, right in the heart of Russia, there was a cute little jazz station.
The station’s young and perky staff was happy to share their passion for freedom, jazz and each other. Julia, the informal leader of the gang, is the station’s creative director - sexy daredevil who’s bright, ambitious and openly gay. She and her trusty sidekick Roman daily rouse up the airwaves with their quick and edgy show “Tasty Bits”, where they mix funky tunes with snappy banter.
