hot take: i think some of straight women’s homophobia towards nonstraight women comes from the ‘misery loves company’ philosophy. i told my mom that the Y chromosome is defective and she laughed and agreed that men are trash but four years ago she was crying bc she thought i would never end up with a man. they know men suck and that partnering with men leads to an inevitable power imbalance and loving someone who will never understand you and so they’re jealous that some women can love someone other than men, aka women

Sorry to intervene op, but I thought about this take too, because my mom is almost always saying that men are horrible, that they’re all the same and “she is going to turn into a lesbian”, but the second I told her I was dating a girl she became hysterical, told me I just hadn’t met the right guy yet and that I was confused.

Ghshdhd when I came out to my mom she said “Is this because I talk so much shit about men?? I didn’t mean it THAT WAY”
