@alexhaedda @ryn_kerr @butchshauna the thing that makes it come off as negative is that dynamic is not the same. pillow princesses are fulfilling a need for stone tops, which generally does not apply for PIV sex
+ a lot of ppl use it as a way to say they just wanna lay there and take it which isnt what it means
@ryn_kerr @elleycat19sec@butchshauna obviously they don't solely have PIV sex but to correctly identify as a pillow princess would mean for their partner to /never/ want to receive physical pleasure*
if a cishet couple is only ever engaging in '3rd base' with the pillow princess being the only receiver, then sure
i think it would be funny if any of 8teez were actually dating but it wasnt a gov ship
like yvnwoo dating and wy getting pouty every time he reads a yvngi fic (bc ofc he would read them)
@alexhaedda@butchshauna the general idea that "they just lay there letting their partner do all the work" comes across as selfish or lazy to those who hear it without context
even if you dont think its a negative thing, many people do
for those who dont understand, pillow princess should be reserved for lesbians because it gains a negative connotation when used in reference to non sesbian lex
pillow princesses arent lazy, they're necessary 💜
sorry to the tl witnessing my pillow princess discourse in these replies
as a stone top it matters to me that people understand when its been misused (˵•̀⤙•́˵)૭
@PixelLBBH@medjed10c@butchshauna and because of people misusing it and only reading the surface-level definitions without including dynamics (like these screenshots), the meaning of pillow princess has gotten twisted into having negative connotations
so pls stop doing that
@alexhaedda@butchshauna in the lesbian community it is not a negative word meaning lazy. it is the necessary counterpart to a stone top--who does not like receiving pleasure, only giving it
@elleycat19sec@butchshauna this is exactly why the term shouldn't be used my the straights
pillow princess is the counterpart for stone top. there cannot be stone tops (meaning they receive no physical pleaser from the act) in organic penetrative sex, so there cannot be pillow princesses
@kaninhaus @xosilass @butchshauna when non-lesbians use the term, it gains a neg connotation as being spoiled/lazy/selfish. this isnt the case when used correctly bc a lesbian pillow princess is fulfilling a need
stone tops need pillow princesses & vice versa. this doesnt apply to non-lesbian intercourse
