Schrödinger's dating. Almost every gay person wants to date trans people except some small and loud group of bigots. But at the same time trans people are oppressed, because gay people don't want to date them and ghost or avoid them all the time.

I actually have seen bihet used (and used it while talking with some other lesbians) to describe homophobic bisexual and heterosexual women, for example political lesbians like Julie Bindel. This women self-identify as lesbians and then redefine female homosexuality to include attraction to males or other cringe things like political affiliation, life style. This description is also used for bisexual and heterosexual women inserting themselves in lesbian spaces and sprouting bs about compulsory heterosexuality ar shaming lesbians for not dating them. Bihet is also used for women dating TIM-s and calling themselves lesbians, who often shame lesbians for not dating MTF-s. Also Ovarit is full of homophobes and they ban lesbians when they try to react to homophobia in some subs. The facts, that homophobic bihets use bihet toward each other is funny.

Born This Way is the only sane and correct with what we observe approach. Eventual social factor my change self-identification and life choices, suppression of desires, but not change sexual orientation. As for now, there is not one social factor identified, that my change sexual orientation. So the only people with "modifiable" orientation are bisexuals. People, who promote idea, that sexual orientation is a choice or something changeable in life are right-winger homophobe like types and self-hating bi-het redfems. Bot are harmful to lesbians, but I would argue that now the second even more. There is no difference between claiming, that a man can become a woman and claiming that any woman can become a lesbian. Bi-het, who identify as lesbians fetyshize us and see us as a tool to act in spite of men and society in general. For them a lesbian is not an inborn trait, but political statement, something a woman do to make men behave properly. They treat us purely as an instrument to get even with men and hide behind our trousers to make changes in society, that will favor bi-het women in relationship with men. In the meantime they are wrecking havoc in lesbians life. At least if a man identify as a woman, he is easy visible. In case of political lesbians, one needs more time to recognize them and kick out of the life. I also don't see why "Born this why" contradict pride. We are not proud because we are homosexual, but because we don't buy into homophobic bs or overcome it. An it is ironic when self hating and ashamed of their sexual orientation bisexual and heterosexual women are lecturing us about pride.

Study shows zero percent abuse rate in lesbian headed homes. Do you believe the study is accurate? by Shales123 in Lesbians

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

Study is not about abuse in lesbian households, but particularly about abuse of children and is not only believable but obvious. Lesbian couples don't have random unwanted pregnancies, rush pregnancies, pregnancies where one side tricks the other by messing with anti-conception. To have children require conscious decision, planing, financial stability, effort and cooperation of both partners. And all that eliminate a lot of irresponsible or mentally and emotionally unstable people.

Nothing. I remember when TL was smaller than this sub and less active. What makes me a little bit dismayed is a fact, that most people are too lazy to create an account here or somewhere else, instead they lech themselves to reedit, as if it was the only site available and try to pander to homophobes. And then cry when they experience even more homophobia.

It won't work. Just marry a man. A MTF one, so no one would take you for a lesbian. If you marry a normal man someone my suspect you are closeted. If you marry MTF everyone will know you are not lesbian.

Following this logic, butches should either: femme up or pretend to be bisexual or straight, so they wouldn't shame lesbian name.They should never admit, they are lesbian. You know, what is the best thing censorshipment could do for lesbian representation and good name. She should find boyfriend!

Underestimating Shame in the Creation of LGBT Tyrants by Chunkeeguy in LGBDropTheT

[–]reader 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It is very heterosexual/heteronormative way of looking at it. I don't think, it is about power at all for homosexuals. It is about internalized homophobia and desperate attempt, as crazy at it sound, to dehomosexualize homosexuality and hide behind heterosexual kinksters. To stop be the other. For the same reason some gay men and lesbian women want to be indistinguishable from straights. For the same reason there was an attempt to lump LGB with heterosexual but not totally normative people into one queer community. And for the same reason, the same people think, that if there will be no way to see, what two people have in pants (as if) and what biological sex they are, straight homophobes will accept us, as the same as them. It is not gonna happen. Homophobes have no problem with a man identifying as a woman with a woman or a woman identifying as man and a man. It was never about labels or clothes. And lets not allow to muddle this. It is not homosexual people, who are the main force, that push that fuckery.

We will not know for sure, not until sexual orientation become neutral trait. Right now people lie to others and themselves even in western countries with same sex marriages. This social element is visible in how numbers change with age and time. Someone accurate numbers will be accessible in several decades at best. There will be some data about same sex couples living together officially, but after all this mess with definition of sex, male, female will be sorted out.

No, the core problem is coding particular women traits and presentation as masculine. The fact, that women can't just have shaved head or wear suits etc. without being called masculine. The rest just follow.

I hate when someone describe women, who don't fit rigid sexist stereotypes as masculine. There is nothing masculine in haircuts, clothes or lack or makeup unless said woman use this things with premeditation, to crossdress, make illusion of having male body and be seen as a man. In such a case calling her trans is just correct. In fact, I think that calling women masculine is the first step to transing them. If we just use femininity and masculinity for biological differences between women and men, we would have much less mess with all that gender identities.

I have just entered s/all and I see a lot more than that. You can find all that opinions and worse things on reddit, like for example people telling young homosexual people that it is bigoted not to date opposite sex if they identify as the same. Apparently this opinions didn't disturb you while you where using reddit. Why now. The only difference is, than on reddit you will find more other staff, like for example subs for tv series, games, sports or hobbies, so this opinions "disappears" in crowd. The other difference is, that people that have power to ban are disturbed by our kind of people. If you move, you either be in place with people, whose opinion are disturbing to you or in place with heavy banning and as we know from reedit, it is not decent people, that do the banning and you have zero guarantee, your presence will be welcome. Even in lesbian community there are disagreements and even True Lesbians had some strange banning history. the best thing is to have a few spaces with different moderators and let people migrate as they see fit.

Why aren't more lesbians interested in female separatism? by Rao in Lesbians

[–]reader 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The second kind of separatism you describe is normal lesbian behavior. Lesbians already prioritize women, at least those, we are close to and/or can have mutually beneficial relationship. There is no reason to stress something, that is done naturally and mostly subconsciously. There is also no reason to prioritize heterosexual and bisexual women, who wants to use us in their games with men.

How do you deal with the anger and depression? by [deleted] in Lesbians

[–]reader 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

There are a few things that helped me: 1. Physical activity, especially long walk and strength training. 2. Healthy eating with lots of fiber, vegetables, legumes and fruits. 3. Taking care of vitamins and minerals, especially D and B vitamins, with B12 included.

All this make my mind calmer and boost energy levels. Also it is good to have some interest not connected with LGBT politics, so you wouldn't always consume materials, that tigers you. Be it knitting, cooking, sport, gaming or anything politically neutral. If you constantly feed yourself depressing information, it will keep bringing you down.
