*intense Screaming That Increases In Severity*

i’m gonna start being weirder. i need to weed out the fakers in my life. if i wear my tail keychain to the gay bar, don’t say SHIT, unless it’s a compliment.

why do i keep finding so many radfem/terf/etc takes in the he/him lesbian and lesboy tags? if you hate us so much, pls ignore us. your weird ass take about why i can’t be a he/him butch bc it’s actually just ‘internalized misogyny’ is not gonna rewire my brain to make me agree with you. we aren’t the ones chronically online. the butchs and he/she’s and boydykes of lesbian history can tell you that. we’ve always been here. and no, i won’t elaborate, bc you used your own brain to read this. use your brain to research.

In regards of the Trump government scraping all trans inclusion in its queer information portion of its websites I have made this thing. Spread the word. Don't let them pretend we never existed.

P.S: Don't like! Reblog! <3

EDIT: Well this got a lot of attention! I got a few users asking to print or repost my art and I am unimaginably grateful to everyone's interest, especially since it's a really simple drawing I made on a whim haha! Anyone who is looking to print these out to hang or hand out or repost on another platform is free to do so, although I ask you to credit me and let people know it's from my Tumblr profile! If anyone wishes to do anything else with my art or post and wants to clarify what I consent to then they can message me privately and I'll explain! <333 all my love to my queer siblings

EDIT: I made an LGBTQIA+ version with a focus on trans and intersex folks, it's on my pinned if you prefer this version of the acronym.

"Lesbian means exclusive attraction to women!"

"No, it means non-men exclusively attracted to non-men!"

"It actually means queer attraction to women!"

"Lesbian means women and nonbinary people being exclusively attracted to other women and nonbinary people!"

Lesbian is a multifaceted label that can describe many different experiences. There is no one perfect definition of lesbian that will encompass the entire diverse experiences that lesbians can have.

I'm personally a genderqueer woman who's exclusively attracted to other women, but the lesbian next to me might be a transmasc lesbian who loves all genders except for men. And the lesbian next to them might be a bigender lesbian who's both a girl and a boy, who's exclusively attracted to women. Our experiences can all be described by the term lesbian if that's how we wish to describe it, but we might define it differently based on our own experiences. And guess what?

None of our definitions are wrong, but none of our definitions will encompass every other lesbian's experiences. A word can have multiple definitions without any of the definitions being wrong. And those definitions can be very vague or very specific. Labels are made to fit us- we aren't made to fit labels.

People who may have a different experience with the lesbian label are not your enemies. People in lesbian spaces who aren't exactly like you are not your enemies. The problem comes when you try to force one singular definition on every single lesbian. THAT is harmful. Sending death threats to other lesbians because they don't have the same experience as you is harmful. Not another lesbian having a different experience from you.

living in pennsyltucky as a black queer where there is absolutely no queer community (and the ones in my area tend to be racist bc, of course they are) is so irritating. there’s no one here. i don’t live near pittsburgh or philadelphia. *dramatically drags hand down window as rain pelts down from outside* i’m all alone. obi wan-community, you’re my only hope

the way that people can’t handle anything slightly alternative. jenna ortega bleached her eyebrows and now everyone’s acting like she, idk, killed someone.

Nobody:

JD Vance:

friendly reminder that “boydyke” has existed for a very very very very long time and transmen, genderqueers, trans women, transfemmes and transmascs have been a part of the lesbian community for as long as its been around and we ain’t going no where!

political rant bc ive been getting pissed off a lot lately: tldr - this administration can suck my dick and arrest me for whatever fuck off reason they create if they want too. i don’t give a fuck at this point

no matter how bad it gets i’m not hiding myself. i dont care how many executive orders get passed or taken back. how many rules get placed. idc if they bring back the law that we have to start wearing 3 pieces of clothing that aligns with your assigned sex at birth when we’re in public. i’m doing what i want. they can arrest me. i don’t care. maybe my family will finally understand the bs they invited in when they voted for the fucker when they see me get thrown in jail. if that’s what it takes for people to start waking up, then fine. let it happen. it will only get worse and worse until we’re are literally back in the 1930’s.

and those people who magically regret voting for him, fuck off. you didn’t care when everyone else was getting shit on, but now that it’s effecting your job, or your family, or whatever, now it’s a problem. literally fuck yourself. you had no sympathy or empathy for anyone when we were screaming for years that this fucker is gonna ruin us all to fill up his own pockets, but it didn’t matter until it was you. i hope you get everything you voted for. because we sure are.

just ranting bc my family wants me to die, apparently

why can’t my family understand that i have a ROUTINE before work. i do the same exact things every single day and when i don’t, i plan it days beforehand. even when it’s something like doing my laundry before work instead of my day off. i plan it before hand.

telling me that im the last choice to take my sister to practice, 2hrs before i normally wake up, is absolutely going to fuck my day up. especially since i was gonna do laundry (which i decide 3 days ago) but i guess i can’t now since im playing chauffeur all morning.

but it’s fine. i’m fine. it’s all good
