I like dyketionary the most. The other two are prone to typo'ing.

So you picked a derogatory term and coupled it with pedia... Your target audience should love that. :rolleyes:

Side note: I just picked up iiillliiillliiill.com and illlliiiiiiilllliiil.com (can't believe they were available for hand reg). Which is better?

"Dyke" is not a derogatory term. On the other hand, "beards" have another interesting use: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beard_(companion)

Dyke is a pejorative term for a lesbian; it also is a slang adjective describing things associated with lesbianism. It originated as a derogatory label for a masculine woman, this usage still exists. However, some persons attempt to use it in a manner that they see as positive, or as a neutral synonym for lesbian.[1] To some extent, the word has been reappropriated.

Yeah, I can use Wikipedia too. But lesbians call themselves 'dykes' all the time. It's like the use of the N*word among Blacks. I don't see any racial or derogatory connotations. Did you read the "beards" link?

Yeah be white and drop the N bomb around black people. See how well that goes over.

I'm familiar with the other beards term. I actually considered creating a community for gays to find beards locally. Way to much work though. Plus facial hair is awesome.

But you missed the point. A 'dyke' community won't flop around dykes. That's my point. It's a perfectly acceptable term to use, among peers.

I was just yanking your chain :D

Anyway, beards are awesome as facial hair. Especially if your last name is Klaus. :D

Who told you my secret? Can we get a mod in here to remove that last comment. Kids around the world will mob me if this gets out.

If you're determined to use one of these 2 domains, then use the one that is a pun on "dictionary". At least it has that element of wit. The "-pedia" version has nothing going for it whatsoever.

Oh, I misunderstood. You're already using that one. The other two "-pedia" domains aren't worthwhile, in my opinion. But if you went with one, you'd need both as redirects due to the likelihood of typos.
