That's how Eddie Izzard started out.

Now he's demanding to be called she and trying to get women's awards.

Autogynephilia is a progressive illness. You feed the habit, you wake up in hospital one day with your cock in a kidney dish.

Just like Thanksgiving all over again.

Man, if that was your Thanksgiving, then what did you do for Christmas?

If you obsessively use labels prescriptively instead of understanding them descriptively, you need to find a personality.

Way too many people starting with a conclusion, then working backwards from it in way too many different fields nowadays

Of course they do!

Because lesbian doesn't mean shit anymore. Just a fetish am I right??

The really interesting thing is how suddenly people know what a woman is again 🤣

Clown world.

There's nothing sudden about it, they've always known. They just have a vested interest in fudging the definition from time to time, usually while they're trying to get some utterly egregious bullshit past the normies.

There's a name for this, and it's called "man with a lesbian fetish".

Also notice the hippie shit in action here: it's not the material existence of a homosexual woman that defines what a lesbian is, but the loosely defined, ethereal "queer connection" one feels for lesbianism.

It's pathetic. They're just a normal dude, the worst thing you can possibly be in their minds.

but the loosely defined, ethereal "queer connection" one feels for lesbianism.

I think it comes from an attempt to be part of the LGBTQIABBQWTF+ group, while at the same time knowing you're a straight man. And since few of the people in the Queer community want to turn down a potential member, a strange "connection" or "queer attraction" is invented.

Men thinking they feel more like lesbians than other men is a tale as old as time.

I don't know what it is.

Maybe it's unconfident men thinking lesbian relationships are less scary. Lol.

I'd imagine it's something along those lines, in the same vein of media like Heartstopper being written by women for women, about gay relationships. Basically most fujoshis are scared of their own perceived weakness causing an imbalance in straight relationships, so they imagine themselves in a gay relationship instead. The object of their desire still gets to be who they're attracted to (men), but they get to imagine themselves as a physical equal. But because they don't actually know anything about gay relationships, it ends up being a female perspective of it, so you end up with two emotional uwu softbois.

It's the core of post modernism. As FourteenDigitz said, it's language as a prescriptive tool, rather than a descriptive one. These people think language defines reality, rather than describes it. They start at a conclusion "I want to call myself a lesbian" then work backwards from that, twisting the word to fit themselves. "I want to call myself a lesbian. I'm a 22 year old male. Therefore a lesbian is a 22 year old male".

Which is where madness lies, because that's not how fucking language works. If everyone gets to have their subjective meaning of a word, it makes language useless, since it makes clear communication impossible. If I ask someone if they can pick me up a bottle of coke on their way home, how am I supposed to know if coke isn't actually their word for a hot cup of piss?

I'm a [normal] guy 100% but..i feel like a lesbian??

I share an interest with lesbians in that I'm also attracted to women. What I don't have is a rapey desire to coerce lesbians into sex with me since I'm not the gender they're attracted to. Fuck's sakes.

    2016 thought that was a funny joke. 2022 takes it dead serious.

    A man who's "attraction is queer towards women" is the greatest thing I've read all week. What's even left to say at this point?

    Truly the most oppressed people of all: That frat bro at the bar who responds to someone shooting him down with "nah, I'm a lesbian too, I also like chicks brah..."

    So huh... what does it feel like to "feel like your attraction to women is queer"?
