There's no "claim" about it. You either are attracted to women (and not men) or you aren't. Being lesbian only "plays an important role in the struggle for equality" because people keep treating us unequally for two things we didn't choose (being female, being homosexual).

You hit the nail on the head, my friend. This desire to alter the meaning of homosexuality and bisexuality is disgusting ‘woke’ homophobia and no one will change my mind about that. They seek to dilute the meaning of same-sex attraction the same way they seek to dilute the meaning of “woman”. If we don’t have the words to describe and identify our oppression, then how can we resist and fight for change? If anyone can “identify” as a lesbian or woman, then you can “identify out”, and your complaints of being oppressed are meaningless. I feel like a lot of these people have overdosed on postmodernism and academic theory to the point that they are completely detached from material reality. Being gay or bisexual isn’t an identity you claim. It it simply is. Trans ideology has completely infected LGB/feminist discussions and are rotting mass of intellectual dishonesty and coercion.

I'm glad you agree. This is also just part of it, but I just don't understand it when people say "lesbian identity" or "gay identity" or "q*eer identity" or whatever the fuck. You might as well talk about a "tall person identity" or whatever. Since when did personality traits get boiled down to mere physical attributes, instead of being about values...?

But it's so crazy because, this is the "gay community" I was first exposed to. The "lesbian identity" and all that bullshit. No one can give me a fuckin straight answer, lol. Sorry this has turned into a rant, I just don't understand. Just seems like "gay identity" is a collection of stereotypes about what it means to be same-sex attracted.
