Making fun of the U Haul joke

Q. What does a lesbian bring on the second date?

A. A U-haul.

Yes, I know you have heard this joke before. It is the oldest lesbian joke ever. And dykes not only love telling this joke, they like to make fun of themselves for telling this joke. It is considered a staple in lesbian humor. Yes, lesbians do tend to form close, immediate, intense relationships, you know you have met the one, so what are you waiting for? Move in! Unfortunately, the U-Haul syndrome can lead to other problems. *see future post "LBD", (lesbian bed death)*

Yet we are all guilty of beating this dead horse. We tell the joke, we live the joke, we make fun of our friends as in.."Have you met Kelly's' new girlfriend?" "Oh yes, I think they are headed to U-Haul this weekend!" (insert obligatory eye roll here)

In defense of the writers of this blog, none of us moved in together within months of dating. In complete honesty, I wanted to, but we held out for a year. Which is like a decade in lesbian years.
