Who I guess are also referred to as “motorcycle mamas.” Because I ride, does that make me a “mama” too? The whole thing just conjures up that ugly stereotype of a big dyke on a big bike. I apologize to my lady friends who love the ladies, and you know I support each and every one of you, but you also know how deeply pleasurable it is to me to encounter people in life who destroy stereotypes. Each time I see one forcefully upheld and on display by the media it just makes me cringe.
Still, beggars can’t be choosers, and I’m still thrilled that The Today Show, long one of my favorite pleasures in life, shone a small light on women who ride. It’s no easy thing.
