sporadically giffing my favourite LGBT characters for pride month ➟ steph chambers

this entire website: and girls who like BOYS are VALID! and girls who like BOYS AND GIRLS! and girls who like NEITH-

lesbians:

once we’ve made you aware of our orientation, we barely allow ourselves to look at you and smile at a joke you just told, in case you’d assume we’re into you, just because we smiled at you once

but guys can catcall, make inappropriate comments, talk about girls as trophies, talk about how they ‘become a real man’ only after they’ve had sex the first time, break girls down into body parts, take revealing clothing as an open invite for sexual interest, go on about how good they are in bed after receiving an initial ‘no’ as if their dick is a product that the girl just doesn’t know she wants yet and the guy didn’t sell it on his first try??? and many more things

@ straight girls, please. please. take your homophobic hypocrisy and realise that girls who like girls are not your enemy.

if we flirt with you, because not all of us have amazing gaydar and sometimes we just gotta try, and you’re not into us? if you just say so, the most likely scenario is that we will sincerely apologise and then move to the other side of the room or in any other way leave you as well alone as we possibly can.

we are not your enemy.

and we don’t like girls just because you’re girls. you are not body parts. you are not a trophy. we don’t call your outfit cute because we want to get between your legs. you are not new territory that we want to conquer. you are not an area on a map that we want to mark with an “x” so we can brag about how we’ve been there.

you are not a pussy that we want to defeat.

the predatory lesbian and the hyper-sexualised bisexual is a myth.
