Sure, not all men — but might as well be for all I care. Not in my bed.
And I know there are men out there who are reading this and thinking that this is a super cunty point of view… and I agree!
Besides the fact that straight cis male partners (especially white dudes) are statistically the most dangerous for women and girls, there are also the labor inequities. I resented the realities of mental load before I knew what it was and that is just the tip of the iceberg.
I was disinterested in being queer because of the hypersexualization of bi women and also because of the perceived safety in being in proximity to men. This security is false and I am thankful that I resisted the trappings of cis straight marriage with children.
It takes a lot of work to resist the normalcies of patriarchy but after decades of denial, I'm leaning into my queerness. I’m bisexual by birth but a lesbian by choice. [Actually pansexual but I like the alliteration…]
This collage features an iconic couple but is celebrating my rejection of compulsive heteronormativity. (Fun fact: Lucy filed for divorce as soon as the show was over.)
Live on Five is also a unique opportunity to snag pieces from artists in a medium/media they don’t normally use. In 2024, I won an amazing collage by Rebecca Schwarzberg who normally works in sculpture.

Anyway, regularly landing on your feet despite making terrible life decisions, like letting your lease run out and then choosing to be unemployed without savings, wandering Poland for three months hoping to snag enough freelance ghostwriting gigs to sustain you, is super cunty.
I’m working on a memoir entitled: “Lethal, Illegal, or Both” — it will feature stories where I should have died, gone to jail (if not prison), or both.
This is a favorite dinner party game of mine that some fellow subversives and I came up with while sharing stories one day. I highly recommend it.
I eventually employed these tricks while traveling and struggling as a sometimes housing insecure artist. Also similar to Susan, I have found myself in many sticky situations over the years — at home and abroad. “Sticky” is used in jest here.
Of course, this is a precarious lifestyle even that is palatable because of Susan’s various privileges — which I share.
The way Susan (played by Madonna) utilizes the Port Authority public bathroom and lockers has lived rent free in my brain for almost 30 years.
This self-portrait celebrates the ability to thrive without a homebase.
The still in this collage is from the fun and fascinating character exposition of the titular character in “Desperately Seeking Susan.” I credit the film for showing it’s possible to be elegant while transient.

As time has gone on, I’ve come to recognize the duality in my personality: a fastidiousness when tackling subversive tasks.
Nothing cuntier than being a total contradiction who is good at being bad.
In college, I became unrecognizable from the disruptive punk I was from kindergarten to twelfth grade. I did all the reading and sat front row center. I regularly shocked acquaintances from class when I ran into them at a party or bar, they couldn’t believe this nerd got out.
“Type A Party Animal” represents my time in college, which got into full swing after I transferred to Binghamton University as a sophomore.
Go Bearcats!
“Cuntface #2: Type A Party Animal” by artist Courtney Frances Fallon. It is an abstract self-portrait with text from a psychology textbook, Mary Poppins singing to a bird, and a vagina painted like a mouth smoking a cigarette for the head.

All of this experience, plus the Me Too Movement, and the revelations of the Epstein Files and online Rape Academies, all contribute to my overall cuntiness.
This profoundly horrifying experience is not unique to me. I saw my male contemporaries pick up the predatory practice of dating younger teen girls. And I’ve heard men mock victims of their abuse, just like I was. Including a man who I thought of as a friend when we were high school students.
“They’re all gonna laugh at you”… but first — you’re getting raped. Cool cool.
I’ve moved on in so many ways but haven’t… PTSD is real.
Long story short: Statutory rape led to forcible rape by a fellow student who was friends with the older abusers. Details about the most violent assault were written on the boy’s bathroom wall. My trauma was a joke that entertained many. I had no idea this was publicly known until years later.
From the outside, it might not seem like I was a total Carrie (White, not Bradshaw) in high school. But fall of 1999, my sophomore year at West Seneca West Senior, was particularly harrowing. People fucking HATED me and let me know it.
This self portrait is a fun pop of color featuring a still from Stephen King’s “Carrie” starring Sissy Spacek. Covered in pig's blood and humiliated after an elaborate ruse, she finally snaps and uses her telekinetic powers to kill everyone at prom.
“Cuntface #1: Scene from My Villain Origin Story” by artist Courtney Frances Fallon. It is an abstract self-portrait with text about Rasputin, the blood scene in Carrie, and a vagina painted to look like a heart for a head.
