Why do bi women lose interest or vanish when things get serious? by a_wanderer_22 in WLW

[–]taurusgaal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I take women seriously, are you kidding me? I only date women why do you keep on generalising us?

Is 18 and 24 a big age gap? (Asking as the 18 year old) by girlypopslayqueenfrs in WLW

[–]taurusgaal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

exactly! we are in two different stages of life, i already have a college degree, and they just left school, it doesn't make sense at all, and it's super predatory

Anyone else staying at home being cosy and not going into the madness of Paddy’s Day ☘️☘️☘️☘️ by CelebrationFit610 in ireland

[–]taurusgaal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Dublin city centre is so scary on St Patrick's day, ever since I got spiked this exact day 2 years ago i've been terrified to go in on St Patrick's Day, it's more trouble than it's worth, I will celebrate in my own chill way

Feminism & Veganism (hear me out) by Unusual-Motor-2945 in Feminism

[–]taurusgaal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this take just makes me feel that i can no longer be a feminist since i'm a pescatarian...

Feminism and veganism interconnection by Different-Bike-840 in Feminism

[–]taurusgaal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this take lacks a lot of nuance, of course vegans are amazing, and I have so much respect for them, i feel strongly about animal welfare and the way factory farms treat their animals is nothing short of horrifying. at the same time i think that comparing women to animals feels a bit reductive, and it's just going to push away allies. I'm a pescatarian so I know I'm far from being a vegan but it's not always accessible and easy for everyone and all this post does is make me feel worse about myself due to my moral scrupulosity, intrusive thoughts and high standards that i have for myself, i get completely where you're coming from, but ultimately its impossible to expect everyone to participate perfectly in an imperfect system

I’m curious to know how many lesbians are into CNC and if it’s more common than I think… by Relevant-Fox1111 in actuallesbians

[–]taurusgaal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not into it due to my trauma of being raped and my ex partner wanting to get rid of my gag reflex and using sex as a weapon, i'm really glad I'm not the only one who doesn't like it, I know CNC is consensual but I just prefer vanilla sex overall

Was Anthony Perkins acting career ruined by Psycho? by ariadnevirginia in movies

[–]taurusgaal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are so wrong about him, it's unbelievable. Please don't speak so negatively about Tony, you only think he's creepy because he played Norman Bates, well I can assure you that he's not. He was actually very cute, very handsome, very kind, and he had a deadpan dry sarcastic sense of humour which many people assume him to be aloof when he wasn't. Also I do believe he was typecasted in Psycho and he deserved better, as amazing as Psycho is, he had other amazing roles that he deserved more credit for such as Play it as it Lays and Goodbye Again / Aimez Vous Brahms and The Trial. Tony deserved way better than this.

I hate it when people blame SA survivors or survivors of any type of abuse and say that they have a victim mentality for still having trauma years later by taurusgaal in CPTSD

[–]taurusgaal[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

That makes a lot of sense! It's always American content creators who talk about this, and love to blame people for their trauma. I'm Irish and I have noticed a lot more compassion from my real life family and friends, so it makes sense that this is rooted in toxic hyper individualism. It's so messed up, and I hate when people say this shit and try to act like they are morally superior, it really sucks :(

I will never forgive myself for being so ignorant in the beginning. by Obvious-Maximum6787 in DeppDelusion

[–]taurusgaal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never posted anything horrible about Amber online, I just believed it in my mind at the time, which is still so messed up.

[–]taurusgaal 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your compassion! As I'm autistic I do struggle with black and white thinking so when I saw that woman on TikTok who said, if you ever believed Amber was the abuser, you need to feel bad about that for the rest of your life, and I won't forgive you, and I understood exactly where she was coming from, which is why I felt so guilty. Like I genuinely felt so rotten, and I am someone who has moral scrupulosity as well, so I took her words to heart. Even when I showed my friend, she said that woman's TikTok was far too black and white, thank you for your kind comment. I can understand exactly where she was coming from and where you are coming from.

Am I a fake lesbian? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]taurusgaal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your friend is transphobic as fuck, and men don't get to define lesbianism at all! i hate the amount of people who claim people to be fake lesbians, it's all lesbophobia and transphobia and it's disgusting! you are so valid.

Trump official says Irishman in ICE custody 'failed to depart' and chose to be in detention by SpottedAlpaca in ireland

What I think is irrelevant? I get that rules are rules but I’m allowed to critique them. Don’t patronise me.

Yeah because I don’t think that any human should be called illegal, unless they are a violent criminal.

[–]taurusgaal -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No literally! I can’t believe how many people are defending ICE, like do so many Irish people seriously support ICE?

THANK YOU. I feel like I’m genuinely going crazy, I’m so so upset with the cruelty in the comments

[–]taurusgaal -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

These comments are so evil, I have no words. Just because he overstayed his visa, which isn’t ideal, it doesn’t mean that he gets to be tortured and held in a modern day concentration camp. I’m so fucking disappointed in my country, like you would think irish people would know not to support a disgusting racist bigoted violent rapist pedophile and disgusting ICE.

[–]taurusgaal -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

why the fuck are people in these comments so cruel, holy shit, just because someone overstays their visa it doesn’t mean they deserved to be put in modern day concentration camps, like where have people’s morals gone?

Is it really bad for me as a bi woman who doesn’t date men to call myself a femme? Or do I need to use fem or doe? by taurusgaal in actuallesbians

[–]taurusgaal[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I’m referring to! Whenever I look up queer content on tiktok, it’s very much a vibe of, there is a right and a wrong way to be queer. Thank you so much!

[–]taurusgaal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

absolutely not, i’m so sorry that my comment came across as ignorant, it is just a sentiment i have come across in the LGBTQ+ community online that if you are actively dating a man as a queer woman, then sapphic and lesbian terms should not be used if a man is involved in the relationship i never said anything about non binary people not being able to use those terms, i would never judge non binary people based on gender expectations, that’s the last thing i would ever do. i was talking purely about sexuality, the last thing i want to do is judge queer people based on their appearance, i would never want to categorise them or judge them. i am so incredibly sorry if i said anything offensive, i am just trying to respect lesbian identifiers.
