City of Women actually sounds like a pretty appealing idea. And as for the cleavage on that biker outfit… well… I hate to see how she deals riding during blackfly season! An incredible ensemble on the whole, though.
You’re fine, and not alone. That always struck me as the silliest damn title, it makes no sense at all. I haven’t read the story, but given that all the stories had to have the characters ending up badly, the ‘counterfeit’ woman was probably married to a man, and doing for the money, or some such.

Yes, City of Women is a lovely idea. I’m reminded of Leela and Amy talking on the Futurama ep Amazon Women in the Mood:
Amy: This women-only planet is sounding better and better.
Leela: I’m already looking for apartments.

Too damn much smoking on these old covers.

I am worried this is going to be insensitive or privileged. If so, that’s on me, and I own it, and will apologize.
But the title, Counterfeit Lesbian, is making me giggle.
And I know that some of the titles are intentionally “scandalous/trashy/pulpy/titillating” (for various values of those terms) to attract buyers.
But . . . Counterfeit Lesbian?
Would it make more sense if I read the book? Do any of these give anyone else the giggles?
Am I a terrible person?
Still learning,
Robert
