5/16/2021 I hate how wanting female connection and female spaces in LGBT contexts is suddenly this massive red flag for peopleRead Now I long for female solidarity. I long for female connection. I long for female-only spaces. And I hate that such longing in modern LGBT spaces is now implicitly (sometimes even explicitly) forbidden.
If you wish for female-only spaces in the straight world, it feels like most people agree that it makes sense. However, if you wish for female-only spaces in the LGBT world, that's a major cause for alarm all of a sudden. Suddenly, everyone starts side-eyeing you, waiting for you to express some "terfy" opinion, questioning why you "only care about certain kinds of women". I hate how wanting female connection and female spaces in LGBT contexts is suddenly this massive red flag for people, and not allowed. I have decided to try dating for the first time in my life. I am bisexual, and am only interested in pursuing relationships with other bisexual women or lesbians. How many times must one meet a cool woman and have her give you the "actually, I'm not a woman, I'm nonbinary, so..." when you try bonding over some aspect of being female in this world. It's like a setup for some horrifying joke; room full of "queer" people and not one same-sex attracted woman in sight. How did it get like this... Comments are closed.
