Taste Or Waste?

Lesbians still making posts about how bad it is for bi women to use butch/femme:  We know! We heard u! We’re trying to make our own terms and have them used widespread but we need to get the WORD out for them to be commonplace and that’s hard when literally nobody but bis reblog posts talking about bisexuals lol! It’s not like we all follow each other. At this point the only people trying to take ur terms from you are lesphobes or young bi girls who straight up don’t realize they aren’t generic wlw terms because they haven’t learned the history bc literally no one is out here trying to include and teach bisexual kids shit about their gay lineage, everyone’s too busy trying to push it under the rug. 

bi equivalent of femme: doe bi equivalent of butch: stag

There are more for nb bis and such you can look into but there’s the basics! Look I’ve even designed flags you can find if you scroll through this tag! (i didnt come up with the terms)  

Always be nice, even if no ones watching!

My dear lesbian girls, 

Some people seem to think that there are only two types of lesbians: the soft, cute, shy, feminine lesbian and the confident, loud, badass, masculine lesbian. 

This may be based on the assumption that there needs to be one who is “the girl in the relationship” while the other one is “the boy”. 

That’s not how it works. While there are certainly girls who will read the descriptions above and think “Yep, that’s so me!”, there are plenty others who do not fit into one of those narrow boxes. 

Your personality and your presentation don’t need to “match” like that. Don’t feel pressured to play a certain role if it doesn’t feel right. You can absolutely be confident, loud and dress feminine. Or you can be shy and dress masculine. Or, you can be none of those things at all! 

The bottom line is, you’re a human being. You are you. You don’t need to be “like a lesbian”, whatever people think that means - you already are one. You can’t fail at that, it’s who you are! 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Mom
