A modern, personal guide to the culture of queer women and everyone in between, this exploration delves into the nature of 21st-century queerness. Journalist Daisy Jones unpacks outdated stereotypes, illustrating how lesbian and bi culture has evolved and gradually influenced the mainstream. The narrative shifts from traditional images to a celebration of freedom, expression, and community. From the underground clubs of east London to the realms of TikTok, Daisy examines what it means to be lesbian or bi today while honoring the past. The book addresses the ongoing process of coming out, the complexities of dating as a queer woman, and the transformation of nightlife spaces into online communities. It also highlights the mental health challenges that disproportionately affect LGBTQ+ individuals. With a blend of personal insight and journalistic rigor, Daisy presents a cohesive image that shows being lesbian, bi, or anything in between transcends gender, sexual practice, or romantic attraction. Through interviews and lived experiences, Daisy employs verve, humor, and sharp prose to create a vital and insightful portrait of queer womanhood in 2021.
