Chapter 207: Lesbian Assembly

  Seminar of Separation: A Thousand Lesbians Confront the 6C Question

  Location: UC Berkeley, California (non-6C state)

  Event: Lesbian Futures Forum: Autonomy, Faith & The Femme Horizon

  Attendees: 1,200 lesbians, activists, schors, community organizers

  Backdrop: 6C's growing social restructuring, including the Femme Group Electorate Law and Concubine Cuse Mandates (source)

  [Opening – Packed auditorium. Rainbow banners next to stark white poster: “SHE WAS NEVER JUST A LETTER.”]

  Moderator: Dr. Evelyn Mertz (Queer Studies Chair, UC Berkeley)

  Keynote Panelists:

  Mei-Ling Chan (via livestream from Portnd)

  Renee Vega (LGBTQ coalition organizer, skeptical of 6C)

  Sasha McCin (formerly aligned with feminist coalitions, now neutral)

  Imani Rhodes (young Bck lesbian theologian, undecided)

  Panel Discussion: "Is the 'L' Still Aligned?"

  Dr. Mertz (moderator):

  “Let’s open this with brutal honesty. 6C now permits lesbian cohabitation, integrates lesbians into political power through Femme Trusts, and gives them electoral authority unseen in U.S. history.

  But—there’s a man in every rhythm. Does that invalidate the power? Or does it redefine lesbian governance?”

  Mei-Ling Chan (remote):

  “I’ve been asked this every day since Iowa.

  I still sleep with women. I still love only women.

  I signed a contract with a man.

  Not to change who I am—but to change the world I live in.

  If LGBTQ means staying powerless, then maybe L should leave.”

  Renee Vega:

  “You’re normalizing heteronormative systems dressed in ritual garb.

  If you give lesbians voting rights through a husband—you're not freeing us.

  You're just hiding the cage in rhythm charts.”

  Sasha McCin:

  “Renee, you're not wrong. But here’s the missing piece:

  Femme Trusts are not romantic structures. They're governance units.

  I met lesbians in Mississippi running whole counties. Their husbands are legal shadows.

  The patriarchy doesn’t disappear. But it bends. 6C bent it.”

  Imani Rhodes:

  “I was raised to believe the state was the enemy of my body.

  But in 6C states, I’ve seen lesbians get child custody, nd rights, voting blocks—and yes, sexual contracts they control.

  It’s not utopia. But it’s leverage.”

  Audience Reactions (Live Poll Results on Screen):

  “Should the lesbian movement formally break away from LGBTQ as a political bloc?”

  YES: 61%

  NO: 23%

  UNDECIDED: 16%

  Public Testimonies (Open Mic):

  Speaker 1:

  “I lost everything trying to fit ‘LGBTQ+’ funding boxes.

  Now I see 6C lesbians building real housing. I want that.”

  Speaker 2:

  “Lesbianism isn’t just who we love—it’s how we build.

  And maybe it’s time we build without the alphabet.”

  Speaker 3 (crying):

  “My wife and I lost legal custody in a blue state.

  A Femme Group in Arkansas offered us joint rhythm-based guardianship. That’s more than allyship. That’s structure.”

  Conclusion – Final Decration Drafted by Assembly

  Title: The Berkeley Statement

  “We, the undersigned, do not reject queerness.

  But we reject being colpsed under queerness.

  Lesbian autonomy must be structural, not symbolic.

  We hereby begin the process of forming an independent national Lesbian Assembly.

  All future coalitions must treat the ‘L’ as a sovereign civic force.”

  Final Scene:

  The crowd rises as the motion passes.

  Appuse echoes.

  Some cheer. Some cry.

  One banner is hoisted:

  “L is not for rent. It governs.”

  ***

  Founding Day of the Lesbian Assembly: Sovereignty in Structure

  Location: Kansas City Convention Hall, neutral territory (not in a 6C state)

  Date: A week after the Berkeley Statement

  Attendees: 3,200 lesbian delegates from all 50 U.S. states, plus observers from Femme Trusts in 6C states

  Theme: “We Were Never Just a Letter — We Were a Civic Body Waiting for a Frame.”

  Scene 1: The Assembly Floor Opens

  A massive circur stage—modeled after Femme Group rotational maps—glows under minimalist lighting. The crowd is nearly silent as the central voice begins:

  Lead Facilitator:

  “This is not a protest. This is sovereignty.

  Welcome to the founding of the National Lesbian Assembly.

  This is not a split from LGBTQ.

  This is formation.”

  The banner reads:

  “The L Will Govern Itself.”

  Scene 2: Foundational Tenets Debated and Ratified

  Tenet 1: Lesbian Governance is Structural, Not Just Symbolic

  Adopted by 94% vote

  Allows for rotational leadership councils inspired by Femme Trust rhythm theory

  Political identity is no longer defined by "queerness" but by autonomous sexual-political experience

  Tenet 2: The Right to Contractual Governance

  Acknowledges 6C Femme Groups as legitimate lesbian civic instruments, even if married to men

  Refuses to exclude members based on contractual heterosexuality

  Tenet 3: Separation from LGBTQ Funding & Representation Blocs

  Officially withdraws from all national LGBTQ political coalitions

  Commits to creating independent lesbian advocacy infrastructures

  Decres: “Allyship is not governance. Identity is not subordination.”

  Rhythmic Strategy Coordinator: Naomi Thurman (Iowa-based rhythm analyst, identifies as bisexual-leaning lesbian)

  Mei-Ling’s Statement (Live):

  “I left the LGBTQ+ bel not because I hated the others—

  But because we couldn’t vote.

  Now we do. Now we write.

  Now ***we define what it means to love women, build w, and never apologize.”

  Scene 4: Resolutions Passed

  Create a National Registry of Femme-Based Lesbian Trusts

  Begin drafting civic codes for lesbian-anchored voting blocks

  Launch Sovereign Femme, a news/media arm of the Assembly

  Scene 5: Cultural Shift Begins

  By evening, #LesbianAssembly trends at #2 across U.S. Twitter/X.

  Hundreds of thousands of lesbians online announce withdrawal from LGBTQ+ orgs.

  Dozens of major LGBTQ centers across the country receive mass resignation letters.

  FEMME Blog publishes an editorial titled: “We Were the Frame, Not the Footnote.”

  Closing Image:

  Outside the convention hall, someone chalks these words on the street:

  “This is the beginning of lesbian government.”

  Tamika Ashford (The She-State)

  Special Guest Drop-ins (during stream):

  Mei-Ling Chan (via side couch, brief Q&A)

  Sasha McCin (roving correspondent on summit floor)

  Naomi Chen (appears briefly, hands off a sealed doc, nods, vanishes)

  Segment 1: “Yo. We’re Not a Letter. We’re a Legisture.”

  Harper (grinning, sipping wine):

  “I mean, y’all. Did you hear the chant out there?

  ‘Not just love—w.’

  I don’t care what anyone says—this is not performative. This is formation.”

  Zo?:

  “This morning, I sat in on the Femme Sovereignty Panel.

  A lesbian concubine stood up and said: ‘I’ve seen more safety in a rhythm contract than in thirty years of liberal dating.’

  And the room stood.”

  Tamika:

  “I came here skeptical. But hearing lesbians openly negotiating sex frequency in civic contracts?

  I haven’t seen that since…never.

  This is our Renaissance.”

  Segment 2: “Mei-Ling in the Room: The Myth Becomes Human”

  [Door opens — appuse. Mei-Ling Chan enters casually, no makeup, rhythm pin on her colr.]

  Harper:

  “Girl. The dome just bowed to your podcast from six months ago.

  How’s it feel being the ghostwriter of lesbian governance?”

  Mei-Ling (ughs):

  “I didn’t start a revolution.

  I signed a rhythm waiver.

  Turns out, that’s the same thing now.”

  Zo? (leaning in):

  “Real talk. How do you reconcile being gay and governed by a man’s eligibility in the system?”

  Mei-Ling:

  “I don’t.

  I govern through him.

  He’s not my desire. He’s my function.”

  Segment 3: “Rhythm Gossip & Contractual Sex”

  Tamika:

  “Okay so what’s the tea?

  Lesbian Femme Groups are finessing concubinage contracts.

  Some are signing ‘Touch Optional’ cuses.

  One trust in Indiana built a 3-wife–1-man structure where he only appears twice a month. The rest is pure sapphic finance.”

  Harper:

  “Girl, we are voting with our bodies, and still sleeping with women.

  Is this… bisexual revolution? Or lesbian jurisdiction with a hinge?”

  Zo?:

  “It’s post-bel structure.

  The alphabet cracked.

  This is rhythmic realignment.”

  Live Comment Section (scrolling on stream):

  @anchoravoidance: “I’m straight-up jealous. Lesbian statecraft is miles ahead of gay men’s coalitions.”

  @LexitLover: “I left LGBTQ for THIS. For spreadsheets and sensuality. Let’s go.”

  @GrannyLesSays: “I got my Femme Trust rotation pin today. 6C state, full bisexual cuse. I’m 67. Never been more governed by love.”

  Closing Energy

  Harper (to camera):

  “This is no longer ‘Pride.’

  This is formation, negotiation, succession.

  The L now builds nd w.”

  Zo?:

  “We’ll be back tomorrow with the arbitration simution—lesbian custody over communal children in rhythm courts.”

  Tamika:

  “Stay lit. Stay scheduled. Stay sovereign.”

  Internal Currents: Fidelity, Rhythm, and Power in the Lesbian Assembly

  Setting: Private Forum inside the Louisville Civic Dome, Day 3 of the Summit

  Access: Closed Session — For Lesbian Assembly delegates only

  Attendance: 400 core delegates representing over 70 Femme Trust-linked collectives

  Topic: “Rhythm vs Romance: Navigating Sex Frequency, Fidelity, and Power Integrity”

  Moderator:

  Sasha McCin – Neutral facilitator, known for her diplomatic finesse and deep familiarity with both traditional feminist ethics and 6C w.

  Structure of Debate:

  Each section of debate is opened with a proposition, followed by counterpoints, real trust testimonies, and synthesis attempts.

  Section I: Fidelity vs Femme Trust Flexibility

  Proposition: “A woman in a Femme Group should maintain exclusive emotional and sexual fidelity to her wife(s), even if under legal rotation with an Anchor.”

  Speaker 1: Celine Dubrow (New York Trust Co-founder):

  “We joined the Assembly to restore lesbian emotional sovereignty. If rhythm asks us to split our attention with men—then we’ve lost the soul of lesbian community.”

  Speaker 2: Reyna Khan (Iowa, Femme Trust with one male Anchor):

  “It’s not cheating if it’s calendared.

  I have ritual days with my Anchor and emotional fidelity with my primary wife.

  Call it contradiction. I call it hybrid survival.”

  Outcome: No consensus. But proposal emerges for a “Dual Fidelity Cuse” in Femme constitutions:

  Romantic fidelity preserved

  Physical obligations fulfilled via scheduled rotation

  Section II: Sex Frequency and Consent within the Law

  Proposition: “All Femme Group members should have the right to define frequency of sexual engagement, even if it conflicts with initial contracts.”

  Speaker 3: Nia Ortez (California delegate):

  “Power built on obligated touch isn’t freedom—it’s quiet coercion.”

  Speaker 4: Ayumi Foster (Kentucky, Femme Trust rhythm engineer):

  “Rhythm isn’t pressure—it’s coordination.

  If we nullify sex frequency contracts, we break the whole legal harmony index.

  We’ll colpse into rotational chaos.”

  Outcome: Working group formed to design a “Frequency Adjustment Protocol”

  – Allows renegotiation every 60 days via trust council vote

  – Anchor compliance required

  – No obligation for justification, but rhythm bance must be preserved

  Section III: Political Compromise vs Identity Purity

  Proposition: “Participation in 6C legal architecture risks eroding lesbian identity integrity.”

  Speaker 5: Dr. Callie Zheng (Queer Theory academic, skeptical of 6C):

  “If we surrender definitions to gain access, we risk repcing liberation with eligibility.

  We’ll become bureaucratic bisexuals, not lesbians with fire.”

  Speaker 6: Mae Delgado (Louisiana, Femme Trust strategist):

  “No. We didn’t surrender. We institutionalized.

  We don’t dilute identity.

  We encode it.

  Lesbian governance exists now in civic w. That’s not dilution. That’s legacy.”

  Outcome: The Assembly agrees to adopt a new internal category:

  “Strategic Lesbians” — members who choose limited 6C compliance for access to structural power

  A proposal to update the Assembly charter to reflect multiple modes of lesbian engagement with patriarchal systems is scheduled for vote.

  Closing Words – Sasha McCin:

  “Tonight, you’ve proven that governance is not built by agreement.

  It’s built by tension held in rhythm.

  You are not divided—you are multiplying frameworks.

  And that is how power lives.”

  The Rhythm Vote: Charter Revision Session of the National Lesbian Assembly

  Setting: Founders’ Hall, Louisville Civic Dome (curtained off for Assembly-only access)

  Date: Final Day of the Sovereign Harmony Summit

  Attendance: 1,100 certified voting delegates from every major region, including international observers from Canada, Brazil, and Germany

  Topic: Vote on Revisions to the Founding Charter of the National Lesbian Assembly

  Motto Projected Overhead:

  “We Are One Body, Many Rhythms.”

  Proposed Revisions: Three Critical Addendums

  1. Article VII-A: Strategic Participation Framework

  Cuse Name: “Modeed Lesbian Governance”

  Summary:

  Official recognition of “Strategic Lesbians” — members of the Assembly who maintain political or sexual participation within 6C frameworks (e.g., marriage, concubinage, or Femme Trusts including male Anchors).

  Establishes that “lesbian identity is civic and structural, not determined by romantic exclusivity.”

  Protects Strategic Lesbians from internal exclusion or censure.

  Debate Summary:

  Opposition: Minority bloc argued it risks fragmenting lesbian definition too far from identity history.

  Support: Majority argued it protects access to civic power and prevents exclusion of key movement leaders.

  Vote Result:

  Passed: 91% Yes | 6% No | 3% Abstain

  2. Article IX-B: Rhythm Integrity Cuse

  Cuse Name: “Frequency Flexibility Protocol”

  Summary:

  Allows any member of a Femme Trust to call for sex-frequency renegotiation after 60 days.

  Rotation Engineers (internal trust officers) may dey changes no more than 14 days for bance realignment.

  Anchors have no veto power over Femme majority decision.

  Debate Summary:

  Considered essential for protecting sexual autonomy within a structure governed by schedule and w.

  Accimed by concubines and wives alike.

  Vote Result:

  Passed: 98% Yes | 1% No | 1% Abstain

  3. Article II Revision: Identity Definition Cuse

  Cuse Name: “The Three Currents of Lesbian Assembly”

  Summary:

  Defines three recognized orientations within the Assembly:

  Foundational Lesbians – commit to exclusive emotional and sexual intimacy with women

  Strategic Lesbians – participate in political/legal contracts outside female-only spheres

  Structural Lesbians – engage in Femme Trust formation without regard to traditional intimacy, focusing on rhythm, guardianship, and civic bor

  Debate Summary:

  Creates inclusive scaffolding without erasing philosophical differences

  Approved by both purists and pragmatists

  Vote Result:

  Passed: 89% Yes | 7% No | 4% Abstain

  Closing Ceremony & Charter Signing

  Visual:

  On a curved marble table, engraved with the words “We Do Not Break—We Multiply,” each regional representative signs the new charter.

  Sasha McCin (from podium):

  “Today we chose unity with velocity.

  We built a chamber rge enough for contradiction—and called it w.”

  The Assembly stands.

  A single rotating rhythm chime echoes overhead.

  The new Charter is sealed under UV light and projected to all members’ rhythm registries.

  Backdrop Projection:

  Large banner reads:

  “UNITY IS OUR ONLY FUTURE”

  Followed by fshing subtext:

  #LGBTQNotOptional | #OneStruggleOneBanner

  Scene: Official Response to the Assembly Charter Revision

  Spokesperson 1 – Dr. Elijah Raine (HRU):

  “The National Lesbian Assembly has crossed from advocacy into sectarianism.

  By ratifying the concept of 'Strategic Lesbians'—and legitimizing participation in 6C's rhythm-based theocratic system—they have abandoned the foundational values of unified queer resistance.”

  Spokesperson 2 – Mx. Delih Strauss (Rainbow Frontline Coalition):

  “We are deeply armed that lesbian delegates have formalized three-tier identity governance and endorsed a model built upon compromise with patriarchal legality.

  Voting power filtered through sex contracts is not liberation—it is legally stylized submission.”

  Statements from LGBTQ+ National Legal Forum:

  "We condemn the legitimization of any civic framework—such as 6C—that criminalizes gay men while reinforcing state control over women's sexual contracts."

  "The Lesbian Assembly’s decision to formally break from LGBTQ+ electoral unity threatens years of coalition strategy."

  Media Reactions from Queer Press

  OutPulse Headline:

  “From Allyship to Apostasy? The L Breaks the Bloc”

  PrismAxis Editorial:

  “What Does It Mean When the L Votes While the G Is Detained?”

  Queer Progress Daily Commentator:

  “The strategic lesbian is now a state asset.

  What’s next?

  Femme militia backed by rhythm?”

  Activist Reactions (Grassroots Level):

  National LGBTQ Student Network (NLSN):

  Withdraws invitation to Mei-Ling Chan for upcoming university speaking tour

  Suspends partnership with Sasha McCin-affiliated Femme Policy Project

  #NotInMyName Trend on Social Media:

  “Lesbians are powerful. But abandoning your siblings for rhythm metrics isn’t justice.”

  “6C permits lesbians because it erases others. Don’t mistake tolerance for freedom.”

  “I miss when the ‘L’ meant lineage, not legal leverage.”

  Lesbian Assembly Response (Posted Hours Later)

  From Mei-Ling Chan, Sasha McCin, and the Assembly Civic Architect Council:

  “We have not abandoned queerness.

  We have outgrown symbolic coalition.

  Queer unity that depends on identity suppression is not unity—it is uniformity.

  We did not betray the banner. We built a government under it.”

  Next Steps:

  Major LGBTQ+ orgs schedule Unity Rebuild Conference to reassert national coalition leadership

  Anonymous leak reveals internal LGBTQ+ funders pnning to bcklist Assembly-affiliated projects

  National queer protests scheduled in four cities targeting Femme Trust satellite offices

  ***

  Scene 1: The Empty Seats

  The grand ballroom of the Civic Renaissance Center had 3,000 chairs.

  Rainbow fgs draped from every pilr. A glowing backdrop dispyed the summit theme:

  “One Voice. One Banner. One Future.”

  By 9:00 AM, over 2,500 attendees checked in.

  But none of them were from the National Lesbian Assembly.

  Not a single Femme Trust delegation.

  Not even a lone Strategic Lesbian observer.

  HRU’s Elijah Raine (opening remarks):

  “Today we reaffirm what the queer movement is—interlinked, indivisible, whole.”

  (a long pause)

  “But... we cannot pretend this summit is complete. The absence of our lesbian sisters is visible.”

  Mx. Delih Strauss (whispering backstage):

  “We should’ve offered them a voting bloc. Not a slogan.”

  Scene 2: Protest Fizzles in Four Cities

  Event Title: “Rhythm is Repression” – National Day of Protest

  Locations: San Francisco, New York City, Austin, Minneapolis

  Target: Femme Trust satellite offices operating as civic literacy hubs under 6C-aligned ws

  Organizers expected: 3,000+ per city

  Actual turnout: 80 in San Francisco, 67 in NYC, 41 in Austin, 34 in Minneapolis

  Visible Lesbians: Fewer than a dozen across all protests

  In New York, an organizer shouted into a megaphone:

  “They’re building patriarchy in rhythm charts! This is erasure!”

  A passerby shouted back:

  “They’re building childcare and housing, what are you building?”

  Scene 3: Media Reactions and Social Colpse

  QueerPress Daily Headline:

  “The L Is Not Missing—It’s Governing Elsewhere”

  SapphoStream (Live Reaction Podcast):

  Tamika Ashford:

  “They begged us to show up to a slogan buffet.

  Meanwhile, we’re in Kentucky building constitutional architecture.”

  Harper Lane:

  “This wasn’t just a boycott. This was a new alphabet. The old bloc just realized L has jurisdiction now.”

  Scene 4: Internal LGBTQ+ Memos Leak

  An anonymous source leaked Sck logs from Unity Rebuild organizers:

  “Why didn’t we reach out with policy power instead of pride panels?”

  “The Femme Trusts now have electoral maps, funding algorithms, child custody codes. We have hashtags.”

  “If the L is out… our acronym is just static.”

  Final Image:

  In Louisville, inside a Femme Trust voting hall, three women sign a co-custody rotation chart.

  A poster behind them reads:

  “You don’t need to march if you’re already voting.”
