See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

Do you think butch women are a shame for the lesbian community? Apparently that is what a lot of femmes think.

Uh. No. That’s so dumb.

Also, for the record, I’m not a fan of how the terms “femme” and “butch” are thrown around so loosely in general. There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to describe the spectrum of the lesbian population. I feel like the over-usage of these words has boxed people. </slight rant>

I have a Vag Disorder that makes it unlikely that I’ll ever enjoy someone up in my business. I’m pretty much doomed to be single, right? I mean, I’d be glad to give orgasms, but I feel like most people want a two way street unless they’re douches.

you would be surprised how many lesbians would be perfectly content to lie on their backs for the rest of their lives while you enjoy being up in their business

I’ve always had this idea that I might get a tattoo that’s a jewish star that is somehow rainbow colored (either some sort of gradient, or each prong is a color and fuck violet), is that still unacceptable? I like your sense of design a lot

A “rainbow” but “fuck violet”?! Are you crazy, how can you have a rainbow without VIOLET ARE YOU CRAZY.

I’m kidding a little…

I like black. Black and white and shades of grey. I feel like rainbows are too. fucking. much. Especially on bodies… but this isn’t my body, this is yours. You know?

Thanks by the way :)

lesbians like femmes don’t they? I feel unwanted because my hair isn’t short and cool

This makes me so sad.
One of my favorite things about our community/people is that we come in all different shapes, sizes, gender expressions, styles, colors, countries, haircuts etc…
there is no “this is what a lesbian looks like”.

Let me answer your question more directly: I know SO MANY lesbians that loooove feminine girls. I am one of them. I hope this comforts you in some way. You are wanted by many.

I know that perhaps being gay might be extra difficult for girls like you because no one believes you’re gay because you have long hair and are pretty or whatever – but this is the exact stereotype and mis-representation of lesbians that we have to fight. Be yourself. If that self says “I wanna cut my hair short” then do it cause its fun and hair grows back and you also might like it or maybe you’ll realize “shit, this isn’t me at all” and won’t do it again but this is all part of the process anyway right?
