Under a youtube video from a trans man (who i appreciate) there’s this comment and…
the amount of ppl who liked it is representative enough of how much we are indeed witnessing the loss of a generation – if not generationS- of lesbians. Because this is only one comment in an ocean of “former lesbian turned trans guys” who didn’t interact with this comment. imagine the number of gnc lesbians who will “disappear”, who will physically become straight men in the eyes of unknowing ppl, who will satisfy all the classic homophobes who think homosexuality is the result of an hormone imbalance (maybe it’s not said a lot in north america? but it is said a lot by homophobes in european countries, africa, etc) and this isn’t even taking in consideration lesbians who now identify as non-binary, gender-fluid, demiboy, whatever bullshit gender identity labels. So i’m not going to lie, as a gnc lesbian this is the type of stuff that crush my soul and heart. Makes me want to disappear completely, to never have been born, rather than living with the pain of knowing that we’re letting this to happen en masse to lesbians. I am so angry and down. Is this supposed to be a happy comment? Ahah “yeah so cool we’re not lesbian anymore”? Glad that i have radical feminism to lift me up and sisters every day, glad that this community helps and fight for females no matter how difficult it is.
