in my perfect world everyone makes so many lesbian muses the men then have to deal with the exact same behavior when every single post ever written isn’t about dick.

#CLAWS RETRACTED.#[real talk: I’m a lesbian transmasc little enby guy. but my gender? is lesbian. it’s how I explain it. my attraction to women is a part of #my innate gender. that’s just how it is and the two things inform one another. heteronormativity is still so alive and now everyone can put #it under progressive little labels where the character is bisexual but everything that’s focused on for miles is the hetcoded shit. it’s a #cool little thing people do now. it went from when I was a kid and ‘there’s no such thing as bi you’re just confused’ to ‘everyone is bi #because it gives me points but I will never meaningfully observe the queer aspect of that identity and it can make me seem comfortable with #queer identities’. it’s lip service so much of the time. and I never ever ever say you’re only valid if you write bi characters in a #queercoded relationship. bisexuality is forever valid always even if you’ve NEVER been in a queer relationship. but this is writing and #real bisexual people (I’m not even bi I’m literally a lesbian) have experiences irl that make them feel shitty #when they see them boiled down to shallow. a lot in the same way I get upset when I see lesbian relationships brushed off or ignored in #spite of my own excitement toward the ship. MY POINT IS that lesbians are completely ignored by this point and I can say this both irl and #on here because when you live a life that excludes men from your romantic space you’re basically illegal. it drives me fucking insane. the #way anyone can make a fucking whitebread ass man on this site and their inbox will be exploding but you make a lesbian and you have to pad #quietly around because from jump you’re already worried about how people will perceive you and you KNOW they won’t be immediately welcoming.#this is an irl thing in such a big way and I’m a NEW YORKER. but the fact that this exists in the rpc? truly I miss when we just wrote and #enjoyed things and this wasn’t a cesspit of discourse instead of an actual creative community. like. I went to college to study boring #theses that couldn’t keep my attention. I slogged through litcrit theory. do I love it? yes. but some of yall really just wanna be on #debatebro YouTube and not in the actual rpc. it’s wild. everyone’s a philosopher but no one wants to meaningfully engage. and if they do #they want to in either bad faith or basically hardheaded ignorance about an issue. someone’s 2 seconds from rping destiny.#swear to fucking god if I see one person make an asm.ngold joke I will cry.]
