we're here, we're queer... right?

Why does there not seem to be any glbtqasdfsd clip art? All I want is a simple b&w silhouette of two men in a heart, kissing or not, and a drawing of two women sharing a milkshake. (Or vice-versa. And/or totally ambiguous couples.) But no matter how gay my search terms, all I come up with is:

I pride myself on my google-fu, and I am having a hard time finding these images, too.

Well, I blame heteronormativity, but you might find something here: http://www.fotosearch.com/clip-art/gay.html ? there's sorta two dudes in a heart @ #25?

But generally I didn't find anything except in specifically GAY themed sites, and there the images are all about LOOK WE ARE GAY rather than LOOK WE ARE (2 dudes/2 women) IN LOVE. ...the semantic difference being one of visibility to straight people as gay rather than visibility to anyone as coupled in a variety of permutations IMHO.

Yeah, I found that same page and was similarly disappointed. But perhaps with a different keyword, or else I would have seen #2 before - it's the Enola Gay! Otherwise known as the infamous plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. What the fuck is that doing as clip art? * shakes head *

Oh, jesus. I missed that one in the fervent scrolling-down process.

If you don't find anything, let me know and I'll post to Facebook...maybe one of my future-daughters-in-law (both artists on their way to art school) can come up with something.
