As a homosexual woman my dating pool is limited to less than 2% of the human population.What a privilege.

More, if you date bisexuals.

I don't

I do, because I can't limit myself so much. Like if it weren't hard enough already

I actually had to look up m-spec and swiftly fell down the rabbit hole of identities. I mean, what is this monstrosity?

It's the problem of having our sex lives colonised by pre-teens and people with personality disorders and mental illness. But if you dare to point it out, the alleged adults in the room lose their shit.

The venn diagram of "people with mental illness, neurodiversity, or both" and "People who identify as non-binary and trans" is just a circle within a circle.

While there are plenty of neurodiverse and mentally ill heterosexuals, I've NEVER met a non-binary or a trans person who didn't suffer from mental illness or wasn't neurodiverse. I don't think it's an issue of over diagnosis either. I think, if anything, nonbinary people are under-diagnosisng their own mental illness and/or neurodiversity.

DID is a disorder that develops when a very young child goes through extreme trauma over a prolonged amount of time, so that person needs a stable home, people who love her/him and regular contact with a therapist to be able to heal. What they don't need is to be sucked down a rabbit hole like this.

Oh yeah; These extensive Prince, Princess, and Royal constellations they got going on there sounds like the escapist fantasy world lore that an anxious kid might be drawn into or develop to disconnect from life.

Silver lining: these kids are learning their Latin and Greek prefixes, which will be useful if they go on to study medicine or law ⛅

Touch of grey: can't they just have hobbies? Lecturing strangers on the internet about your identity as a Mushroom Prince or an Academic Prince is a waste of your teen years.

You mean good ones? Because I think this is their hobby. I don't think one would edit hundreds of pages of this stuff if they weren't deriving something from it.

Haha I do believe you are right.

Says something when I'm stuck looking back to the good old days when the kids were writing weird erotic fan fiction on Live Journal instead of LARPing gender identities. I wonder if they battle each other?

I swear, these fuckin' people... they're the very DEFINITION of "high-maintenance". But with no payoff! And no end to the demands, the relentless self-involvement. Like, guys? Identity-hoarders? YOU'RE NOT THAT INTERESTING. In fact you're monumental BORES. Everyone is BEYOND TIRED of your trifling asses!

Hey, HERE'S a certified brand-new identity for them to add to their collection!: "high-maintenance, crashing-bore black hole"! Let's see a flag for THAT.

There's an app identity for that.

Yeah, far less chances of meeting someone with mutual interests and compatibility, far more chances of ending up old and alone in the world. Not being able to live everywhere, if you want more chances to finding someone. Having to learn to be more assertive and make the first move and court them since women mostly like to be courted rather than aggressively court you like males.What a privilege to be homosexual woman.

[–]oofreesouloo⚡super lesbian⚡ 14 insightful - 2 fun14 insightful - 1 fun15 insightful - 2 fun -  (4 children)

Even me, who like women who "take more the charge" in a sexual way, so I would be considered technically the "submissive" one, as a lesbian, I HAD to learn to take initiative, to make the first moves, to not be afraid, to take risks. Because yeah, the vast vast majority of women are used to being pursued. To be totally honest, straight and bi women have no idea how privileged they are in dating, they almost don't need to do anything, men will come after them, men will do most of the "job" when it comes to dating, men will do the chasing and when bi women face dating women they'll soon realise how much harder it is. But only bisexual women who actually try for quite a long time to date women do know how hard it is and how much effort and sweat you actually need to put to impress a woman haha. Because bi women who don't actively pursue women will soon realise the other women won't pursue you either and then will constantly blame "omg, I like women so much more, why do I always end up with a man?". I mean, duh? Most of them don't actually do any effort to date women and don't understand that privilege in dating lmao.
I must add that I'm in the most difficult position ever, as I'm not even "visibly" gay, who likes other women who aren't visibly gay. RIP for me haha.

In bed as you know I am more of a giver and in general I do actually woud prefer to be the one buying the flower and moving the chair than the other way around. I'm naturally someone who is good at flirting and complimenting. But I would also like the be courted, I am a fucking woman, after all. Being more assertive in online dating is not hard, but go to make the first move in person is too hard for me. Women, at least the feminine one that I want to date, tend to be passive. I've got this tendency to put women on pedestal or thinking I've to impress them, low self-esteem. But I realize I need to stop doing it. No woman deserves to be put on a pedestal, except a woman who loves me and respects me as I am.If a woman wants to be impressed, she can fuck off. I'd rather being alone than having to do what men do. Its just too stressful. Must to be mutual, not one-sided.

I see so many bi women on TikTok complaining about not being with a woman because men actually approach them. Like, in women dating world you're both conditioned to think you'll be approached but you have to wake up and take some initiative. You can't except women to effortlessly fall on your plate. And if you want to be with a woman so bad, don't date a fucking man or at least stop complaining about it once you do. It just adds to the invalidation of sapphic relationships because it's so normalized to thirst over women even when with a man and it is not taken seriously.

They don't want to stay with women, otherwise they would search them It's just crazy to believe you can get women as easily as you can get men. It's just cool to say you're bisexual

All this is going to do is turn homosexuals and bisexuals against each other. Only recently have gay men and lesbians been more open to hanging out with and dating bisexual people, but these idiots are going to undo all of that progress that has been made. Bisexuals who come out can have it bad, and do get it bad both from straight people and gay people alike, I understand that, but it helps to have a little bit of perspective. Being oppressed is not performative, and it’s time we stop rewarding people for being victims. Because this victim glorification culture is going to damage society beyond repair.

Why must genderspecials insist on making everything into an "us vs them" situation?

[–][deleted] 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (7 children)

Anyone care to explain what that privilege is exactly?

[–]PatsyStoneMaverique 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

It's popular sociology based on this woman's work.

As I said, it has a fundamental premise that is not accurate to real life (we don't live under a feudal system.)

Politicians like it because it absolves them for the failures of their policies.

Rich people like it because it ignores wealth in favor of whining about traits no one can control.

It's toxic and destructive, and the only people who see any benefit from widespread belief in privilege are the wealthy.

Conflict theory, but without the economic aspect is like making a cake without flour.

[–]PatsyStoneMaverique 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I do think that's the point.

This social justice worldview was openly promoted by the Obama administration and large corporations after the Occupy Wall Street protests in 2010. It surplants economic discussion and de facto institutes a caste system.

This is exactly what the corporations want, to divide the middle and working classes so that they can rule. I cannot believe how many leftists have fallen to this well-planned and executed scam in the name of gender identity, so many "leftists" doing the dirty work of the corporations for them. Woke bs is nothing but elitist crap shove down under the throats of the masses to keep them docile.

OWS scared them, because people were waking up to the FACT that corporations and politicians are fucking awful for us and the planet.

FUCK Obama, that bastard.

A weapon used by middle and upper class spoilt brats in order to shame working class people.

Gay marriage was only legalized in the US 6 years ago and these absolute loons are already saying we have "privilege" over spicy straights 🙄

[–]strawberrycake 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

As a former Tumblr user, they were saying this before marriage equality in the US.

Bisexual activists have been saying this since the 80s at least. I don't agree with them, but hopefully it makes you feel better that this isn't new.

When I was on Tumblr years ago this was a common talking point. I thought monosexual privilege was an abandoned argument (much like the even sillier “allosexual privilege”). It’s all kind of BS when you realize who is privileged and who isn’t comes and goes in trends. I’m worried how quickly organizations are trying to adopt an unstable worldview.

[–][deleted] 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Throwing the word 'privilege' in the I-hate-this-word-now pile right along with 'valid' and the 'trans' prefix.

Also what the fuck is m-spec??

Edit: I looked it up and I hate myself. 'multisexual spectrum'??? There is only one 'multi' sexuality. The rest are fake and needlessly woke. Yeah there is a spectrum of preferences and attractions among bisexuals but we don't need a cutesy label for that oh my fucking god.

And what was the point of tweeting this? Besides to just stir up shit for no reason? Saying 'check your privilege' essentially when the alleged privilege goes unacknowledged is just.... Why? Why bring it up at all if you're gonna be vague and annoying about it? Oh I know why. Because this person is blowing smoke and full of shit.

I know these people are detached from reality but can someone explain how wanting to be in a commited relationship with a sole partner as opposes to fucking several people is considered a 'privilege'?

[–]usehername 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

They mean monosexual as opposed to bisexual. In other words, monosexual encompasses heterosexuals and homosexuals.

However,

can someone explain how wanting to be in a commited relationship with a sole partner as opposes to fucking several people is considered a 'privilege'?

they do also believe this. It's called "polyamory", as opposed to monogamy, and it's a super oppressed sexuality, part of the alphabet soup kweer side of the acronym.
