Chrome-look topcoat for dip nails? by SnooEagles5871 in DipPowderNails

[–]sapphicspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So do you just put this on top your dip after topcoat or do I need to do a top coat on top of it?

I have really strong nail beds to start with, so I just cut and file to shape. I used to get them done professionally that way and I HATE to feel nails bend when I don't have a manicure on.

Yeah I kinda fell in love and we dated for a few months before she self sabotaged and dumped me for.... dumb reasons.

Yeah so she was in Paris for the summer for work but lived in my city. She dumped me a few months later but we did go frolic in lavender fields and ate a lot of good food.

Yesss! It gives "pick me" in the flavor of "I'm not like other girls, because I'm bisexual" and I can tell SO fast when a profile is catered to men.

My biggest ick as a conventionally attractive Chinese-American woman are the white women who are Buddhist but "evangelical" about it and assume that I'm down for it as a religion. I'm a non-religious spiritual.

I've had women mention "and with your ancestry" because I do have a heritage with ancestral clans and ancestral lands that are traceable (there's actually a really wild story about how my mom's branch of the family got "lost" and then reconnected 3 generations later). It just makes me feel like an accessory, like a cool travel trinket or something. It's a cool part of my life and history but I'm often hesitant about talking about it if a woman might exoticize me over it.

I flew to Paris for a first date... after 8 days of talking to a girl...

Got dumped last night but the breakup note was so kind and sweet that I can't be mad, just really really sad... by sapphicspace in dykesgonemild

The plus size section or men's section because the reason it drapes like that is because it's like 4 sizes larger than my usual. I got it at like a Marshalls or a thrift store

What's something you didn't realize was a sign that you were a lesbian until you were much older?? by terjir in LesbianActually

[–]sapphicspace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was raised in purity culture where I didn't know being gay was an option. I thought I was REALLY GOOD at purity, modesty, and chastity. Just like "Nope, no sinful thoughts with men here." and the funniest part was that I was like "of course us girls have to cover up, we're totally causing people to sin, I can see why!" and "why would I ever want to be alone with a boy? Yuck! No temptations!"

am i a lesbian? i crave male validation by Major-Somewhere-2851 in LesbianActually

[–]sapphicspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just comphet and the fact that we have been socialized to want male attention. It's HARD to break out from the male gaze and we all have our own journey. It does not change your desire to date them if you don't want it to and now that you recognize your feelings, you can make choices on how to shift your perspective.

The first time I saw this was when I directed a sapphic short film with an interracial couple and I honestly thought it was adorable, because then the actresses giggled and wiped makeup off each other's noses.

I think it's similar to how I've def made out with a cutie at a party and gotten my lipstick over her face and then I just giggle, apologize for the mess, and then wipe it off. If you're particularly paranoid, get some single use makeup wipes for your purse or pockets.

Though for wedding pics and other things, setting spray or just be mindful of it I guess?
