Search Terms, Numbers, General Tomfoolery

My hosting site keeps track of the searches that get people to Butch Wonders.  I never paid much attention until this month, when "turned butch dyke mind control stories" caught my eye.  Bizarre that this would lead someone to BW, and more bizarre to imagine what this particular Googler was seeking.  I was horrified/delighted by some of the Google searches that got people here.  My favorite from this month:
  • guys looking HOT  [I'm guessing this person was disappointed]
  • HAPPy birthday sexy guys long hair  [I'm guessing this person was even more disappointed]
  • zhang yun jing not lesbian  [admittedly, my gaydar's not always the best, but are you sure about that?]
  • how butch women grow hair  [on a hair farm.  obvi.]
  • vulva butch [the really surprising thing here is that two different people conducted this search...  what??]
  • You travelled around Nigeria photographing a group of men who keep hyenas animals that have been known to devour humans on the end of a piece of chain. How did you discover these guys?  [I swear I'm not making this stuff up.]
  • butch man in womens workout clothes  [this person was probably looking for this classy snapshot]
  • bike shorts for initiation  [humiliating clothes and archaic initiation rituals?  sign me up!]
  • is it cool to wear a shirt under a tank top men  [no.  no.  no.]
  • had a nordstrom interview today?  [I knew I was forgetting something.]
  • what about carrying sex toys on a plane [put them in an opaque plastic bag with your pocket knife and drill bits and send 'em down the conveyor belt]
  • how to become a butch lesbian if im fat [sorry. it's impossible.]
  • I then have within five minutes [what?]
  • "me in a skirt" gay porn [there are no words.] 
And just for fun, here are some other stats from the last 30 days:

Highest # of visits on a single day: 1522
Lowest # of visits on a single day: 355

Number of countries from which people have visited: 83

Countries with the most BW readers:
  1. US
  2. Canada
  3. UK
  4. Australia
  5. Germany
  6. Singapore
  7. Ireland
  8. Philippines
  9. New Zealand
  10. Netherlands

Cities with the most BW readers:
  1. New York, NY
  2. San Francisco, CA
  3. Brantford, Canada [Can somebody explain this one to me?]
  4. Portland, OR
  5. London, England
  6. Sunnyvale, CA [Two of my closest friends live there, but the site I use tracks IP addresses, not hits, so who are the rest of you?  Is Sunnyvale a secret dyke mecca?  How did you beat Boston and Oakland?]
  7. Chicago, IL
  8. Los Angeles, CA [This one surprised me, too--when I think of LA, I think of Carmen on the L-Word, not Julie Wolf or  Chris Pureka.]
  9. Melbourne, Australia
  10. Seattle, WA

And here are some surprising places that aren't in the top 10, but from which I have WAY more visitors than I would have expected:
  1. Krasnoyarsk, Russia
  2. Cape Town, South Africa
  3. Helsinki, Finland
  4. Huntsville, Alabama
  5. Ballinger, Texas

In any case, it continually blows me away to see how many people read my little five-month-old blog.  I love writing it and really appreciate that you read it.  Thank you!

go big #2!!!!! Rae from SF here. :) It's a sunny day today (a miracle of sorts) and we send our foggy love. I also wanted to note that many blogs, yours included, led me to the conclusion that the very best bday present for a butch or stud would involve a timepiece. I began with 'watch' but quickly moved on to 'vintage pocket watch'. Which was in fact, the best present ever. Wouldn't you like a vintage pocket watch? For a fee, I will drop a hint in the right ear. :)

This is the best ever search term anyone has used to find me:

"pure malice that's what it is! you became close, then all of sudden you turned out to be the bad guy, i didn't even ask you to be nice to me and when the time came, that i wasn't able to show equality, you had gathered as many listener as you can to listen to your stories. never ever offer friendship to someone who doesn't even know how to draw a line between friendship and intimate."

It's just....so long and specific. I figure someone searched for a chunk of an email that they wrote to see if the recipient had posted it in a public place.

Hi! I'm from Krasnoyarsk, which makes you surprised :) I didn't expect to see it in your list.
Your blog is really interesting for me, in particular because in Russian Internet are no any analogues. Sometimes it's hard to read so many unknown English words...however, dictionary's always ready to help! :)

На русском писать гораздо легче :))) Из России с любовью! :)
