I really am grateful for my girlfriend and that I have someone who shares similar beliefs. This community is proof of that and I won't give up hope, I promise! I just hope I can find more friends IRL soon :(

What countries did you have in mind? And YUP, I know people who's partners are literally transitioning to men and still call themselves lesbians. That's literally the opposite of a lesbian but alright. And the pronoun shit is annoying. I know it's done with good intentions but it's pretty obvious I'm a girl and there's no way you could mistake me for anything else. Everyone keeps screaming to put your pronouns in your social media bio but I'm not doing that. Half the people who do that anyways are only doing it for woke points and couldn't give one shit about actual lgbt problems.

UGH I'm so sorry that happened to your mother. At my university, one of my women studies professors said that the vagina monologues "aren't inclusive" and I wanted to SCREAM. And im in the same boat as you with the tumblr thing. Grew up as a teen learning all about that stuff and at first I was like "oh wow cool" and now I'm like "half these labels are unnecessary and imaginary" I'm kinda terrified to make friends my own age too because they're part of this tumblr generation so you have to watch what you say out of fear of being called a bigot or whatever (when in reality, you're far from one). I honestly didn't think this post would get any traction but it seems like a lot of people share similar sentiments so woo-hoo! Im not alone!

Yeah :/ I've thought about befriending straight men since some are pretty cool and you can talk about your girlfriends together but I feel so icky around them because of how they see us as a porn category and nothing else sometimes. I have 2 straight male friends and they're pretty awesome but sometimes I'd like to have a lesbian pal you know? Someone who really understands who it's like and who I can make dumb lesbian jokes with and share gay memes together

Oh I totally feel you on that. I tried getting involved in the gay clubs at my university and it was a total disaster. I felt like I was walking on egg shells the entire time because anything and everything you said, even if it was a JOKE like not even offensive or anything, was policed to the fullest extent. Example: a recurring meme on some lesbian pages is Cate Blanchett and finding her hot. Jokingly called her my lesbian lover because of her role in Carol. Got ripped to shreds and had to hear a whole lecture on how she's bad and not even gay so she shouldn't be taking roles like Carol anyways. Like??? It's a JOKE??? Jesus christ I cant stand these people lmfao
