Lesbian Visibility Week

[ASugarr]

As Lesbian Visibility Week comes to an end, I want to make a quick reminder that
ALL LESBIANS ARE VALID!

Cisgender and Transgender women can be lesbians. Transgender men who date women don't consider themselves lesbians. All Lesbians deserve visibility!

Additionally, many have stated that they don't wish to date transgender people. That's fine! Just because someone is in the same dating pool doesn't mean you MUST be attracted to them. Plus genital preference is also totally fine! But don't forget, trans women are women so please do not degrade them just because you personally don't wish to date them.

Plus, let's continue to educate one another on the important information. Like preventing STI's as a lesbian, domestic abuse in lesbian relationships and how to deal with that, safe and consentual sex between lesbians. This is what we need to be educating young lesbians and bisexual women on.

Have a fabulous long weekend all 🤍🌈

I think homophobia is worse now. Trans is a terrifyingly, powerful movement that identifies as being the most oppressed of any other group

Had a similar conversation with ds1, he feels this is all going to backfire against all the letters!

The backlash will hit all the letters which is horrific and unwarranted and purely down to the TRA's and their agenda, no doubt they will desperately try to shift the blame onto us, thankfully we have kept hold of the receipts.

This again? We've already had a thread about this. That one was goady af. This one even more so.

Oh, is it time for pigeon chess again?

Yes, but I was told being deliberately goady is not against the rules 🤷‍♀️

Why is it always transwomen and not transpeople?

There is that Rupert.

Hello by way 🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♀️❤️

Please don't write trans women or trans people as a single word. It is offensive to most trans people.

Then don't fucking call us cis.
Thank you.

Alternatively you can write biologically male transsexual, per the Equality Act legal term, or MTF trans person. There's no need to walk on eggshells by worrying when you've left out a space.

It's the patriarchy, innit.

It’s so privileged all this identity stuff

Ordinary people don’t have time or even think,about having a wee identity

They just trying to get through life when times are dead tough with their jobs looking insecure. Kids suffering from not getting to school or nursery or seeing friends or not being able to have friends in their houses

I mean the identity stuff is so indulgent and so privileged

It doesn’t even come on the horizon of ordinary people.

But yet we have councils and politicians and the police too afraid just to say no enough now.

Ordinary people wouldn’t even know what the cis thing is

We know what a girl is what a women is and what a boy is and what a man is

It’s just like indulgent absorption

But legally correct, so there we go.

The larpers and appropriators can't help but display all the same old homophobia I'm sure you've heard a hundred different ways a hundred times before and it must be exhausting, but you know, there's a certain demographic that can't help but centre themselves into everything. Give them the regard they deserve.

Happy Lesbian Visibility Week to all the adult human females who live adult human females.

Yep - I'm a terrible homophobe, which is why I am a lesbian and I married a lesbian in a same-sex marriage

I don’t have any privilege

Just an ordinary person

Don’t know the cis stuff

What is the cis stuff cos no one I know uses the cis stuff

Is it just for certain people the cis stuff ?

😂
