I want to give a shoutout to Asian lesbians who are butch or gender non-conforming. Asian women, especially East and Southeast Asians, are portrayed in media as being feminine and submissive, making those of us who do not conform to these stereotypes feel alienated from the porcelain dolls society wants us to be.

I want to give a shoutout to Asian lesbians who still live in Asia. I am fortunate enough to live in a country where I can legally marry a woman I love, and where there are laws in place protecting me from homophobia. Taiwan is going to be the first country in Asia allowing for same sex marriage this year, but that monumental ruling that is going to pave the way for LGBTQ+ rights in Asia was almost thwarted by a referendum in November 2018, when the majority of Taiwan’s voters decided that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. Fortunately, the Taiwanese government is still going to follow through with allowing same sex marriage before March of 2019, but the majority of countries in Asia still do not have protections in place for us. In some countries, merely expressing our love for other women could lead to our arrests or even deaths.

Asian lesbians do not deserve to be shunned by our families, and god forbid be arrested or killed. We deserve representation, we deserve to be accepted, and we deserve rights.
