the relentless hatred of not only nonbinary people, but cis white butches combined with the glorification of femmes was what made it click in my brain that the sapphic community has a problem with masculinity.
see if any of these ring a bell:
“lesbians cant use he/him pronouns”
“if you arent comfortable calling yourself a woman you cant be sapphic”
“you cant be a wlw if youre genderfluid”
“dont bother following if you arent similar gender attracted”
“butches shouldnt take testosterone thats only for trans men and if they have dysphoria theyre actually just trans”
“can u call urself gay instead? lesbian is a word for WOMEN who use FEMALE pronouns”
something sure as fuck isn’t right.
