I had an experience with political lesbian, I was just experimenting after I accepted myself as a lesbian. I lived in homophobic society and even married a man in tries to start loving men, my ex-husband was really great person, one of best men I've ever met and we are still friends, but nothing worked in bed between us, I insisted to go to doctors to fix it, but they just said I am either asexual or frigid, we divorced and then I slept with a woman in dormitory and found out that I am not asexual - I am very sexually active, I just can't be aroused by men, only can be aroused by women. So after finding that out and my first relationship with bisexual women, I started experimenting, I found radfem who was "political lesbian" and "chose to be lesbian" - I thought "I have no idea about sexuality, maybe it is like that, sadly I can't chose for myself, maybe something wrong with me". She had some bad experience with men and wanted to be "all for women" and "separatist", and liked idea of political lesbianism.

However, when I slept with her, she was almost disgusted from it and very irresponsive. I saw in her myself with my ex-husband. Then I realized it is complete bullshit. She just was trying very hard to like women, but was not able to. Same as I tried to like men, really-really tried, but was not able to.

Saying that it is just a choice. And there so many homophobic comments there by GC or feminists.

I like this line of comments there, tho: https://twitter.com/Iamthisnotthat1/status/1407678822028398600
