My first thought when MJ asked me to do a review of Pink Sofa was “not another lesbian dating site.” I’m a little wary of online dating/matrimonial sites- gay or straight. Pink sofa is a de-glam, less fun version of OurChart which Showtime took down after the L Word ended its run.

Secrets
I’d met her for the first time one evening at a friend’s place. She was there – A friend of a friend of a friend. We laughed, we joked surrounded by many. It wasn’t just the two of us.
