She's racking her brain trying to make sense of her life, when every word she uses to describe her gender or sexuality is opposite to reality. It's as if she's trying to read a book that's been turned upside down. When you turn the book the right way around, the translation is simple. Straight woman feels like she doesn't fit in with a group of lesbians.

Even in trans groups I've been in its just like...relationships with women and attraction to women is all but explicitly stated as being pure and wholesome and normal

Probably because trans groups are overwhelmingly dominated by straight men and they have a very simplistic, fetishistic view of women and lesbians in particular. There's absolutely nothing pure and wholesome about their attraction to women.

These kids are living in their heads and it's gonna destroy so many of them. So many of those commenters are detached from reality, their own bodies and feelings and meaningful connection to anyone around them. So little talk of actual relationships and intimacy, it's all theoretical or warped by the lens of "queer theory". Log off, go outside, touch grass until your mind quiets.

That's just delusional. Attraction to women is praised and (thankfully) normalized (in youth culture) but being boy crazy is just as normal heck, even more acceptable. Woman or man, people go crazy when a pretty boy does the bare minimum of being a decent person. And if you're a woman who likes men you won't ever get attacked or looked down upon for exclusively liking men.

This woman is nearly 36 and openly admits she's spent most of her life "trying on identities." What makes her think this is finally her one true authentic self when everything she writes indicates that she doesn't even feel like this one fits either? She needs to get off the Internet and into a therapist's office to figure out why she keeps throwing herself into identifying as minorities that she plainly isn't and what she's avoiding in her actual life.
