Fellow lesbians, describe your religious backgrounds and beliefs by lmaonope333 in Lesbians

No spiritual beliefs, family religious background is Irish Lutheran, if that is a thing. My immediately family don’t do religion, not completely against it, but just don’t practice or involve themselves.

I want to delete my reddit accounts... But i also want to pull other women from the Matrix by BraveAndStunningTERF in Lesbians

[–]StrictlyDykely 7 insightful - 2 fun7 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

The matrix is perfect. Lol. Speaking of, switch and trinity were babes.

But the Matrix is the perfect analogy. I love that film.

But I think poaching the lesbians from there is a good plan. Sorry, “rescuing them.” I do feel like they are being asked to engage in things that are going to end up giving them issues later on. I would be careful to not influence them too much, because then we are just as manipulative as the dinguses from whom we have just been liberated. Lol. The cult set us free. They actually did.

I feel depressed about all this and how isolating it feels to be woke about the misogyny and gas lighting of the trans movement by mangosplums in Lesbians

I was on the other side of this whole debate so I can definitely say more people will wake up. What happened to me what I moved to a city after knowing barely any gays in my small town, and the first lesbians I met were playing with gender and stereotypes and having fun. You could say it was very early in the development of what we are seeing today. It was before all of the “women’s studies” programs were co-opted by “gender studies” and queer theory non-reality. It was harmless and fun. Then people started taking it seriously and getting surgeries and transitioning, and calling yourself a lesbian if your partner had transitioned was “mean.” Michfest was becoming a big problem for this group, because they did not let ant trans women in. They let trans men in. It seemed contradictory, especially since the trans people at the time were not the trans people of today. Then the whole “you have to consider trans women as partners” thing started and things got more polarized. The women who were trying to keep michfest woman only were 5-10 years older than my group, and when you are 20 that is a big maturity and life experience difference. I get it now. Cathy Brennan was right. Lol. She REALLY WAS. And she was fighting this way before we are. I don’t feel like she got a fair shake. Imagine being one of the first? Yikes

So long story short, lots of young people are immediately indoctrinated in this stuff, especially now with social media and tumblr etc being loaded with larpers, it’s all they know, eventually they will wake up. I hope

On the plus side of being banned... by 11mile_house in Lesbians

I actually feel much better. I was very conflicted about not just immediately deleting it when they banned so many subs in the first wave and purposely left up porn subs and hateful fetish subs, etc, especially content targeted at hating women/women’s lib.

It was the first time I had been able to speak to lesbians, just lesbians, in YEARS. I was willing to stick around until we got banned when I saw how many young lesbians were on there, getting horseshit from the TQ+ (I consider the real LGBs who abandon homosexuality and same-sex attraction to be honorary TQs because they sit back when we are attacked), with nowhere to go and no one to talk to about simply being lesbians. That is heartbreaking.

Lots of us used to have gay and lesbian elders, like big brothers and sisters, who supported us when our families and friends didn’t. It seems like this generation doesn’t have that, just a bunch of people yelling “what about meeeeeeeeeeee, your identity invalidates mine and you’re wrong” whenever they try to speak out their experiences as lesbians. Brutal. It’s the real reason for a lesbian-only space. We had lots of teens and early 20s who were from homophobic places or families and were lonely, and go online to see a pile of identities and some very unhealthy stuff in “lesbian” subs. True lesbians was downright wholesome.

EDIT: LOL, and to answer your actual question. I’m going to do some art and interior design, and social distance visit with friends. I’ve also been reading a lot. Going for really long walks and “exploring” the city. Looking for beautiful stuff.

It makes me so sad, I work with a woman who is about 23 and she’s already has done floofing up of her lips and other fillers on her face and minor Botox. At 23. She’s not out there living her life, she’s taking photos of herself and thinking about her body all day, and directing a lot of money toward it, yikes.

Best comment ever. I hate that whole “you’re looking at all of this horrible misogyny and rape culture through the eyes of people who don’t think that stuff is okay, which is WRONG” weirdness extended to gross things in cultures. Anime and manga are borderline pedo so often, and misogynist almost 100% of the time. The tropes they use are even more revolting when combined with the first two. Lots of women I know have just stopped consuming any of it because it’s so hard to locate anything with adult women in it.

Lots of trans men are absolutely horrible. Buck’s generation and the people who transitioned in the decade after him are such a different group than these loud TRAs now. They are likely the ones who are upset to see how insane this issue is

I was on the TRA side in the past. But I can’t support what they are doing anymore, it’s become such a nightmare. When they started telling lesbians to rethink their sexuality it was way too much. Never mind changing laws without and forsight and transitioning kids. There is just a lot of really bad ideaology being pushed, at this point. There are many trans people I like as individuals, it’s the aggressive and thoughtless activism, and writing off of people who have any concerns, including trans people, that is too much. They don’t care about you unless you toe the line. Your friends might, if they are reasonable people, but not the majority. I think a lot of lesbians were spending lots of time defending them, especially ones who are 35+, because trans people used to be part of the community and not crazy like this issue has become

True lesbians was actually very normal, with normal issues and irritations with the lgbtq community. Every letter bitches about each other here and there, it’s just when we do it it’s “phobic.” It was definitely not a dumpster fire. All we were doing was having our own space. I don’t see why they care when they don’t want us in their space, and we don’t want to be there, so it’s better we made our own sub. Like, pick one, actual lesbians: -we stay in your sub and just downvote your when you say things we disagree with, or we make our own space and you can have yours where no one is critical of you.

No one wants to commit to someone who is so clueless. You’re definitely committed to behaving abhorrently in a public forum, and even doubling down. What you prefer is what you prefer, making a whole post to announce all of the traits that disgust you is just mean. Women get judged on their appearances enough, if you don’t like those things it doesn’t mean you will get a positive response for announcing it to the world like it’s not a real bad take.

If you feel the need to make a public list of flaws, as if anyone cares what you like, in a forum full of women who may have one or all of those physical characteristics you are being gross. Stop it. This is not a dating app. Lol.

I saw the ban happened, and fuck those assholes. I hope all our lesbian children find us here. What a terrible message to send to lesbians, especially teens. It’s not “promoting hate” to be a lesbian so I sure hope no one takes that to heart.
