Talk:U-Haul lesbian

ambiguous
it is not a well-worded "joke". i understand the meaning from all the commentary HERE, but when i first heard it on its own, i thought it meant the exact OPPOSITE -- gal in question needs a U-haul b/c she can't GET AWAY fast enough!

and that ambiguity remains for the male version. does "what second date?" mean gay men never have any b/c their entire life consists of one-night stands...or does it mean they never have any b/c they too are NOW LIVING TOGETHER since the first?

STRONG KEEP (replace) on U-Haul pic, btw. it is not "endless bloat", it is ONE THING which is key to the expression.

and add a pic of DeLaria, if indeed she is creator. a little credit where credit is due! 66.30.47.138 (talk) 15:35, 4 July 2021 (UTC)


 * "and add a pic of DeLaria, if indeed she is creator. a little credit where credit is due!" – I doubt DeLaria is the one who thought of the joke first. I'm a little older than DeLaria and I was out when she began her stand-up career in 1982. The difference between lesbians like myself (and DeLaria) versus those who have come out in the last 10-15 years is that I had the benefit of coming out when the Lesbian Community was thriving with lesbian bookstores, rap groups, coffee houses, bars, dances, concerts, weekend events, and festivals  — and in 1982 the lesbian U-Haul joke was an in-joke already.

The Criticisms section is silly
Hyperbole is often used in humor. It's a joke; it's not meant to be taken literally. I think the whole section should be removed. MilkboneJar (talk) 01:46, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
