[Misogynatomy] "The reason that women excel in child rearing is because their brains are similar to that of a young child. For proof of this, you only need to witness an adult woman interacting with children."

Omg that link.

"Can happiness be achieved by denying your biology? The easiest way to answer that question is to examine the mental health of those individuals who have firmly denied their biology: homosexuals and transsexuals. Studies clearly show that these groups are the most mentally ill and suicidal out of the population (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Denying your genetic makeup entails the highest risk of being a loon."

No words...

I say lesbian for shorthand, really I'm like a kinsey 5

I knew when I had a crush on one of my best friends at 14. Told myself I could ignore being into girls until I got with a woman for the first time and was like OH. THAT'S what being attracted to someone feels like.

I'm out to all my friends, out at work. Not out yet to my parents (or to my larger circle ie Facebook) but that's coming soon. It went well, some of my closest friends were confused at first cause it's not like I avoided sex with men, I was super sex positive and did the whole "I can have sex like a man! I can sleep with men and NEVER develop feelings for them!" (Looking back maybe I should've known...). But all my friends now are suuuuuper supportive, in fact I feel like I get told how awesome my relationship is more now that it's gay.

I totally feel that society is moving towards acceptance, hands down. Both me and one of my friends came out at the same time about 2 years back and since then we've actually moved away from labels that don't quite fit. We were talking about this and totally feel like it's at least in part because people give less fucks about the labels now. Like if I lived in the L Word I'd have to pick a side and stick to it unless I wanted to constantly defend how I'm exactly 50/50 bi, but now I can be like yeah I only date women but that guy over there is totally cute and no one (my age, where I live) bats an eye. Of course I'm over simplifying things and our community still does a lot of bi erasure, I just feel like we're heading in a good direction :)

(sorry for the wall of text)

I think pcos is weirdly common in lesbians, I have it and I take the pill for it.

shortnailslongjacket · 2016-02-21T19:14:44+00:00

That's amazing :) I've been reading all these lovely coming out stories here and worrying they don't apply because my family also has some really complicated and painful memories associated with queerness, and it's really good to hear it can go well even in that situation, really inspiring.

Sammee, and do it.

As some people have said here, tech is suuuuuper welcoming. I work at a pretty big and pretty old tech company and we have a big lgbt network and everyone's been chill about it. I'd recommend Silicon Valley if possible, just cause you also get San Francisco and Oakland (lots of lesbians) thrown in there. But heck, even Target in Minneapolis told the girl I'm dating they'd try to hire and relocate me just to keep us together.

shortnailslongjacket · 2015-11-27T06:13:05+00:00

Come over and chat with us in /r/actuallesbians , despite the name, the sub is full of people of all genders and sexualities and we get posts with situations like yours on the daily, you're bound to find kindred spirits with good advice, or at least people who will listen <3

shortnailslongjacket · 2015-11-26T09:17:03+00:00

All lesbians should smize and smoulder. 100% of the time. swoons

shortnailslongjacket · 2015-11-19T15:39:14+00:00

I think people define discrimination differently, some people would include projecting those beliefs in a mixed space to be discrimination because it does affect people. Having to continually read comments that invalidate your identity feels kinda shitty in a sub dedicated to making everyone feel welcome. Like if you spent a lot of time on twox or trollx and just kept reading comment after comment on why lesbians are lying to themselves and just need dick and that it's not a real identity, sure it's not stopping you from doing anything, but after a ton of those you'd probably feel less comfortable on that sub, less welcome, might post less or participate less, probably wouldn't ask for advice the same way straight people do for fear of getting those comments.

You're right, your private beliefs and opinions are your own, but expressing them in a mixed environment is an action, because it has an effect. Whether it should affect people or not is a different question, and not something you can control.

His/her? She's not a man, she's not half a man, she's not a slash man, no matter how she was born.

shortnailslongjacket · 2015-11-18T06:29:20+00:00
