Lesbians have never been able to be out the same way gay men are, even now. Now seems worse than ten years ago.

i lost basically all of my friends after i tried to tell them about my experience being raped by a male who "identified" as a trans woman. they insisted that a traumatic, awful experience for me must have been made up to support "TERF ideology". being a woman, especially a lesbian, feels so fucking lonely these days. i am hated by my supposed community and i am hated by most straight people too. i completely relate to her experience. i have no idea where to go or how to find community now.

I feel like I can't go one day without hearing about TWAW

I only come to this saidit when I come across some gender identity nonsense on the internet.

I'm here every day.

I feel so bad for her, I'm sure a lot of us experienced feeling very alone and a bit like you were going crazy seeing the world and people around you on a new light, at least I did.

I don't have a reddit account but I hope some people reaches out to her with kind words of support.
