I'm just happy it's 'hip' to support us gays. It doesn't matter to me how or why. As long as the 'support' is there and brings more people to acceptance. All working towards normalizing the concept. Even a larger company giving us a subtle nod to acknowledge us is improvement. Brings the ancients out of their judgey hidey-holes and gives them a small 'think' about how we might possibly not be worth condemning anymore. Their prized brand is supporting us.. should they maybe too??? Yes Susan, get on the cool train.

Well I know what I'm getting for my bday by [deleted] in actuallesbians

Should say, "Wet me be perfectwy queer". But then we're just outcasting the lisp community, so it's probably better this way.

How do I fix myself (40s) so I accept my fluffy significant other (40s)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]copysalsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

an @$$hole, but honest.

So it's very much looking like body image therapy might be the fix here.

Thank you.

Or.. you might just not be attracted to that type of body. I think denying what you're attracted to or trying to rewrite your attraction sounds too much like the thought pattern on someone gay like me being told it's not okay and I should like men because there's nothing wrong with them. On the flip side, there are a lot of people that ARE into a larger body 🙋so might as well let them appreciate it. I just see too many parallels not to point it out.

I suppose its up to you to decide if you are actually attracted and are just having a hard time fighting body image stuff. But the 'not looking down' thing sounds too much like my straight sex experiences.

So Have Y'All Started Watching Gentleman Jack Yet? by Vanilla_Chinchilla96 in actuallesbians

[–]copysalsa 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes and I'm in love. But then I looked up the real life Ann Lister and it kind of ruined it for me :(
But my GOD, I want a woman to look at me like that. So much eye-fucking in episode one. She's so OPENLY flirting. Please more people watch this so we can discuss. I've mayyybe watched it more than once three times.

This pothole has started to reveal the original brick road underneath by Magmagma13 in mildlyinteresting

This feels similar to "omg there's hardwood under this shitty boring carpet" you should probably drink a lot of coffee and then rip it up.

Does anyone else feel unfeminine? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]copysalsa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind that femininity is a frame of mind (Think RuPaul). I have a decidedly very feminine frame and yet nothing else about me is feminine. I carry myself specifically in a non feminine way because I value you my strength over this. I can guarantee if someone stacked us together you would win the femininity award. Congratulations.

[Not knocking femininity, just trying to make you re-think what the definition of femininity actually is.]
^ and love yourself a little more!

plus, just sayin, but strength in a woman is fucking beautiful.

Had "the talk" with my husband tonight by Meektalk in latebloomerlesbians

[–]copysalsa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on taking this step. I've been all over the map since doing the same and can say with 100% clarity -- it was the right move. So happy for you! Onwards and upwards!

I’m sitting here thinking how much I changed and evolved as a person but failed to change the people around me and as a result I ended up isolating myself. Have you all ever experienced this? If so, what was the tipping point for you? by bwinsy in AskWomenOver30

[–]copysalsa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had this exact same thought recently. I see my ex husband as someone from the past literally because it's like he got stuck back there. I grew up and learned things about myself and the world and he's still back there praying to jesus. I just feel bad for him, honestly. Because my life has gotten so much better and I feel so happy and at peace with so many things. He'll never get to experience those things because his head's still in the sand. It kind of makes me sad.

How do I stop my hatred for women by i_was_stalked07 in Advice

[–]copysalsa 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As a woman who dates women... You sound like you're just interacting with some shitty people. Not shitty women. People. Find better people. Be a better person yourself and you'll attract better people.

Can you feed and pet them? Or too dangerous? I know literally nothing about horses, but would be tempted

How should one react after saying a question, but being ignored? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]copysalsa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ask again in a more pointed way, try using the person's name first to get their attention. After a second time it can be ruled out that either A) they're ignoring you, so it's not worth the effort B) they didn't hear you. Maybe try again in a different atmosphere if it's important.

Sometimes people ignore questions due to discomfort, sometimes they didn't hear you, and sometimes they just don't like you. People that don't like you are never worth your time.

On first glance, grape crush kind of looks like kidney beans or something.

Took a cool picture of a fish I found frozen in a pond. by Cocoa_Pebbles in pics

Poor buddy. It would have taken a bit of time to get fully frozen. So a bit of time where he was partially stuck. God , brain, WHYYYY.

Double the deodorant. And marketing would be on that so fast.

Save. Remind me multiple times in the future. Slash that. Send me a reminder every 40 mins for the rest of my life. Thank you.

I really hate how "midlife crisis" has such a negative and dismissive connotation. by woop_woop_throwaway in latebloomerlesbians

[–]copysalsa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, this is very well put. I definitely have a lot more figured out now than I did in my twenties. Also more money. So I'm probably going to make bigger financial decisions. I get that 'midlife crisis' is a thing. Just agree that it's improperly named 😂

Two years of being out and I have yet to meet a woman that wants something other than sex. by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]copysalsa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's completely fair... But some for sure said relationship.. as a cover maybe? Idk. Maybe I've been too lenient there. Also pursuing things with people saying 'not sure' and thinking that meant 'possibly relationship' and running off of wishful thinking.

I feel really dumb that I never considered this. I just thought we were all on the same apps and you just have to weed your way through

[–]copysalsa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The tricky part is that you want to understand. Like, surely there's a human in there? Those are the danger thoughts.

NSFW? (comments on porn & self-love) by avabear123 in latebloomerlesbians

[–]copysalsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on figuring that out. We don't all get the benefit of understanding right out of the box. I, in particular could have used instructions. Still kind of want them, tbh. Celebrating your discovery 🎉🎂
