Music
I like to bang my head. I like to dance. I like string instruments.
Movies
New Wave cinema, esp Godard. I'm obsessed with Fassbinder but you probably know that about me since I talk about him all the time. Douglas Sirk. Robert Altman. Bergman, Antonioni. Monica Treut. I really, really like film. I like reading about film, ie: Cinema of Loneliness. The Quick and The Dead. Raging Bull. Rio Bravo. Johnny Guitar. Casino. Showgirls. Quoting Showgirls. Talking about Showgirls. Anything to do with Showgirls. Russ Meyer. Carmen Jones.
Bergman got me through my early twenties. Fassbinder through my early thirties. Now I just watch Law and Order.
Television
I only watch it at Kate's house. This is a medium I'm very behind in. Instead I've just rekindled my interest in Myspace.

My most recent book is Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide. It's a funny, trans-inclusive look at dating for queers of all genders. My other books include Box Lunch: The Laypersons Guide to Cunnilingus, The On Our Backs Guide to Lesbian Sex, Threeways: Fulfill Your Ultimate Fantasy, On Our Backs: The Best Erotic Fiction 2, Bottoms Up: Writing About Sex, and Hustlers: Stories of Gay Sex for Hire.
Here's what people are saying about Girl Meets Girl: A Dating Survival Guide
"There's something deliciously wicked about Diana Cage's hilarious new lesbian dating survival guide, Girl Meets Girl. From the opening admonishments (like "go down on a bicurious girl today!") to more advanced lessons in lesbian attraction (turns out dykes don't care if you look like Brando in Streetcar or Brando in Island of Dr. Moreau as long as you have confidence), Cage's witty little book is a must-have pocket guide to all things dyke amour. A perfect read for anyone who wants to navigate the brave new world of lesbian dating where sexual orientation is no longer tied to anatomy, Girl Meets Girl will help you fall in love, deal with the exes and do all the naughty things in between. Girl meets Girl is witty, snarky and effective and at the end this book will have you, too, screaming, "Show me the pussy!" -Diane Anderson-Minshall, Executive Editor, Curve Magazine
"Diana Cage the former editor of On Our Backs during one of its most interesting and perverted eras, as well as writing nasty, literate porn in such collections as Bottoms Up and Box Lunch, Cage brings her up-to-date sense of queer reality to Girl Meets Girl, and it's a total relief. She's describing a sexual universe that others will find refreshingly familiar, where femme and trans identities are taken for granted, Friendster addictions are as common as prescriptions for Wellbutrin and everybody just wants some sex sans drama. If you need some help figuring out how to get it then Cage is your girl." Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, Xtra magazine
