Thanks for your patience! The Femme Show is now totally upgraded! It’s on sexy, WordPress 2.3.3! And all those fun plugin thingy-ma-doogles are totally current…at least for right now at this very second. (Things change so quickly, you know!)
Also, our good friends at Dreamhost (hi, Jason!) cleaned out some of the tubes that were slowing down our connection to the internets. Everything is unclogged and pretty squeaky clean now, so you should also see a vast improvement in site performance (ie. speed)!
However, if you encounter anything funky (or have any questions), please email me!
Thanks again!
Your friendly, neighborhood webmaster..

Recently we received a user comment asking us to remove the requirement for readers to register with The Femme Show in order to post comments. This feature was turned on in order to avoid spam posting and flaming on the site. We never realized that it might be a prohibitive action that would discourage readers from commenting and participating in discussion.
As of today, this feature has been disabled. If things get out of hand with spam and such, we’ll take another look and see if we need to reintroduce the registration policy. We do still encourage you to register with The Femme Show. Your personal information will never be shared and it will be easier to integrate you should you choose to join us as a contributing blogger.
So we hope to hear from you soon! Comment more and comment often!

The Femme Show website was redesigned to be a living, breathing, entity. Ideally we’d love to see this community grow through increased participation from you! So, we promised it and here we are: The Femme Show is currently seeking submissions from Guest Bloggers to contribute material to be posted on the Femme Show Blog.
Some topics we would like to explore in features include: femme identity and all genders, femme and feminism, intersections of misogyny and heterosexism with other oppressions, femmes and femme identities in history, perspectives on femme identity from people who partner with femmes. We’re happy to publish anything from in-depth essays to casual musings on every day life. Cross-postings are welcome.
As always, you do not need to be femme, female, queer or lesbian identified to participate. Submissions will be reviewed by The Femme Show staff and we will contact you if your submission is accepted. Article submissions, in full or in abstract, should be submitted to submissions [at] thefemmeshow.com.
