Hey... one of her discoveries in researching her pooka paper (which she has finally finished) is that the pooka was regarded as a demon at at least one point in history (the line between demons and fairies being a little blurry at times). Could it be that.... The Pooka made us queer? Maybe that's where all those "fairy" references to gay men come from! Generational pooka-curses (blessings in disguise?) from our witchy ancestors!
Now I want a paganized version of one of those queer-Christian buttons: Lesbian by the grace of the Pooka!
