@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary Child doxxing is AWFUL but I didn’t do that? So why is that relevant to this argument? I’m talking about adults in the real world navigating dating and in person relations. If you have to bring up things irrelevant to the conversation, your argument has gone haywire
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary but clearly you don’t want to heae about that, you just want to cal yourself a lesbian without deal with the backlash and pushback that comes with being one, as comes with ALL sexualities. So I’m done here.
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary Okay what we’re not going to do is say I’m victim blaming, especially with the scenario I presented had me as the victim. I will never believe in the idea of “normal” gays or having to look presentable for the masses.I’m trying to bring to light the struggles lesbians go through-
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary to have men look at people IDing as bi or pan lesbians and saying “well just be like them!! See! You can like men!!” And invalidating the struggles lesbians go through to just exist as they are. But like I said, I can’t stop anyone, I can only live as I am, as will you I’m sure
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary At the end of the day, I can’t stop anyone from identifying how they want, but words do have meaning and history attached to them, i.e. your Sappho example, I just know that lesbians fight very hard everyday to defend their lack of attraction to men and it’s frustrating-
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary And there’s nothing wrong with liking both men and women, bi and pan people are valid and should he loved and appreciated but, they’re not lesbians and that’s okay!
@holidaykiss_ @RinaBeary In fact, I’ve ONLY had TERFs try to call me a bi lesbian for saying that trans women are valid and told that if I’d date a trans women, I’m not a lesbian. IDing as a lesbian isn’t gatekeeping, it’s literally just... not liking men so if you like men, not a lesbian
