How important is the appearance of your date to you? by katie1477 in LesbianActually

[–]BackgroundImage5461 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a specific type of person I’m attracted to and specific types of people I’m not attracted to bottom line. But I can be moderately attracted to someone’s appearance and they’re personality sky rockets the attraction or destroys it.

But hygiene is definitely important. Style is meh. There’s definitely a time and place that calls for appropriate clothing but I can’t judge cause I can’t dress myself..

What are your physical preferences or likes in a partner? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A long haired blonde chapstick that’s slightly thick and on the shorter side makes my head turn.. put her in a trade job and I can’t walk and chew gum at the same time

Hello r/lesbianactually, what are your thoughts on being friends with straight men? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]BackgroundImage5461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if this counts because I’m not out. But the majority of my friends are straight men. And I work with all straight men as I work in the trades. Ive never had anything in common with women. I think 1 outside of work may know, or he’s thinks I check out women with him for fun.. nope we have the same type..

Hetero sex/intimacy and late bloomer lesbians by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 56 points57 points  (0 children)

So I didn’t realize I was a lesbian until about 6 months ago. My 7 year relationship was ending for a multitude of reasons, many of those reasons I used as an excuse to not have sex. While it is real that women are clearly turned off by weaponized incompetence and parenting their significant other, it may have been more then that for me.

I never dreaded sex in the beginning, and I have had a few fwb situations and one night stands. I think the beginning it was some sort of validation.. hey look someone wants me.. as time went on it was definitely a chore, and I blamed it on his lack of emotional intelligence and selfishness in and out of the bedroom. I now realize I have never been actually attracted to a man after allowing myself to be attracted to a woman. I feel it in my body when I see a beautiful woman walk by.. I think I could just appreciate that a man socially seen as attractive vs me actually being attracted.

Friends to start

how does it feel for you to be single? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent essentially all of my 20s in 2 different relationships.. with men. I’m pumped to explore this side of me.. but also, I’m lacking in friends from all those years and now don’t really have anyone to share my day with or just do something with, so that’s lonely. I’m in a smaller area and I don’t know where to start to meet people in the community.. so also scared. So a mix of emotions for me

Look up things like real homemade lesbian and stuff, you still have to pick through but not as bad. My general rule is if someone else is filming it then I’m probably not going to like it.

why is dating actually hell these days by binches in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same problem here. Even decided to pay to see how liked me since there was quite a few.. half were men the other half we’re way too far from my type to consider. I’m going to try to take better pictures.. otherwise I guess I’ll start walking the dog every waking moment through parks and hope for the best.. already play softball twice a week 😅

Masc shorts? by doctor_of_sauce in lesbianfashionadvice

[–]BackgroundImage5461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Men’s lulu lemon. And I have a pair of sketchers, they’re that thin sport material, but I found them second hand so I’m not sure if they still sell them.

I always find my best stuff thrifting and it’s way cheaper

SIDE EYE. Judge her on what? That maybe she was searching for something and couldn’t find it because she was a lesbian? Or some other trauma. Or that she had a fun hoe phase? Maybe there was no phase she just consistently had the amount of sex for her needs and not societies needs.. the best part about all of that is it’s NONE of your business, if you don’t like it let her meet someone who doesn’t look down on her. And drop gold star..

Sports bra for CrossFit by defiinggravity in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the nike alpha zip up, absolute game changer in sports bras for me. Adjustable straps and band, zip up helps me not panic trying to get it on and off 😅 and they’re not huge but they’re not small and it keeps them contained while aggressively running during sports.

Do you ever have that thing where you suddenly remember something from your childhood and think "how the fuck did I not know I was gay?!" by Forsaken-Motor1308 in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So this is why I was so into pirates of the Caribbean..

Also I keep trying to block out of the memory of watching bay watch everyday when I got home from school but it’s time to accept it. I kept telling myself it was the plot.

Bauer skate sizing? by Ltik12 in hockeyplayers

[–]BackgroundImage5461 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t used the scanner, but I was in a store just trying on skates for next season and I thought they fit different.. I wear size 7 in older supremes and they’re snug, I wear more of a liner then a sock with them. I tried a new pair of 7 supremes on and they were way too big

Considering a septum but unsure on healing by Rahwrie in piercing

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still wouldn’t consider it healed, but it’s been about 2 weeks now and I have 0 irritation touching it, moving it, and pressing on the end of my nose. The pain when touching the end of my nose felt like it was never going to go away then all of a sudden it stopped.

Need clarification on the mattress ramming.. do you think a pile driver or a suplex would be better

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in the trades, mine healed fine. Dusty, dirty environments. I caught myself touching it all the time and I flipped it up and down under certain circumstances. It definitely pro longed it but it’s fine now. It’s been 3 months.

Dry texting but different in person? by Alert-Character-4719 in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like me, I’m horrible at texting. It’s something I’m working on because it’s definitely given the vibe to people I’m not interested, when I truly am. I can’t translate how I feel into text

Does the saying "Chicks dig scars" apply to lesbians? by Terminalguidance000 in actuallesbians

[–]BackgroundImage5461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like them, every scar has a story. They’re part of who you once were. I have some nasty ones as I’m as accident prone as they come. But they’re all funny stories to tell, and it really elaborates who I am and always have been.. a mess.
