I’m a queer woman who stopped trying to get dates at gay bars because of Katy Perry and straight women.

See, I’d found this girl I liked at a gay bar. She was cute, she was funny, I bought her a drink, we danced, I kissed her, I asked for her phone number–

–and she said “what, you think I’m some kind of fag?”

Katy Perry normalized the whole “kissing girls ‘just to try it’” thing, and I got harassed in what was supposed to be my safe space as a result.

And to make matters worse?

When I first talked about it here on Tumblr many years ago, I was accused by a bunch of straight girls of being predatory because I felt it wasn’t fair of her to do this. Note that my problem wasn’t with her not giving me her phone number–it was with suddenly being called a fag in a place where that kind of language isn’t okay.
