Going out into the real world and knowing that most people don’t know what the hell a gender identity is makes my day brighter. It’s almost a relief to see people being homophobic in a normal way? Like yes please call me a dyke for liking pussy thank you so much for the validation.

you know things are bad when experiencing regular homophobia is a fucking relief

You know what’s funny though?

They were selling this at Walmart yesterday, here in Canada.

It’s gotten to the point where I actually feel much safer around regular straight people.

My straight guy friends — everyone from the gym bros to the web-dev nerds — is cool with my being gay.

Sure, they tease me about having shitty gaydar, but they’re also happy to be my wingmen. They ask me what they can do to become better boyfriends, lovers and human beings in general, and I tell them the honest truth.

In return, I ask them how to blow off guys in the most emotionally crushing way possible, and I’ve had a few of my buddies — all of whom know I run this blog — peak and offer to come with me to lgbt events “to keep me okay, if you need it”.

But I don’t go, because if someone were to put a hand on me I’d have to sell a purse or two to post bail and like, fuck that.

Years ago, I would have assumed that straight dudes would be a threat (and in many cases they still are!).

But the fact remains: as a lesbian? I feel VASTLY safer around a heterosexual dude than I do around queers of either sex.

No straight dude has ever threatened to rape me with a machete, and I’ve never been stalked by one either.

Go figure.

I hate how true this is, I’m at the point where I feel safer around straight men than I do around “queer” girls who try to lure me into threesomes with their boyfriends in lgbt settings
