LIVE

I want a girlfriend. I want a butch girlfriend. I want a butch girlfriend that I can hold hands with at the farmer’s market as we plan a date in which we feed each other these strawberries dipped in chocolate. I want a butch girlfriend who will help me pick out another shade of red lipstick at the store because she knows she can kiss it off of me when we get home. I want a butch girlfriend who will slowly walk her fingers up under my skirt as I unbutton her shirt. I want a butch girlfriend who will tell me my hair looks beautiful while thinking about dragging me to our bed by it later that night. I want a butch girlfriend. I want a girlfriend.

❝As bisexuals, we experience pressure from both sides to make up our minds, to make a final choice. If we don’t, we incur a collective contempt.

Bisexuals deal with homophobia, biphobia and even heterophobia. The desire to identify with a community often forces bisexuals to repress one side of themselves.

It is a key element in the overall strength and wisdom of the lesbian/gay community that it include and validate bisexual people, and the bisexual movement as an ally in fighting the common enemy, heterosexism.

It is clear that homophobia is at the root of biphobia. Bisexuals have no intention of undermining the gains made by lesbians and gay men in the struggle to be a free people. Coming out as a bisexual is not something that is done to acquire or flaunt heterosexual privilege.

I am bisexual because I am drawn to particular people regardless of gender. It doesn’t make me wishy-washy, confused, untrustworthy, or more sexually liberated. It makes me a bisexual.❞

— Lani Ka'ahumani. “The Bisexual Community: Are We Visible Yet?” Out & Outraged: Non-Violent Civil Disobedience at the U.S. Supreme Court, 13 Oct. 1987, pp. 47–48.

I can’t even begin to imagine the impact she ra has on lgbt rep in the media. healthy wlw and mlm love. lgbt poc rep. and because she ra is aimed towards kids, this has so much influence on how future generations will perceive the lgbt community. she ra is so so important. thank you noelle stevenson.

I want someone who I can romanticize the small, significantly insignificant moments with. grabbing a coffee. washing the dishes. little everyday things that make me fall deeper for them.

happy lesbian visibility week! just a reminder that the wlw community wouldn’t be the same without the influence and beauty of lesbians. you are so loved and important and being a lesbian is such an amazing experience that no one else can understand the beauty of.

date idea this or that !

  1. drive in cinema or motorcycle ride
  2. roller skating or roadtrip
  3. fancy ball or frog catching
  4. dragon slaying or playing animal crossing irl
  5. sleeping in or window shopping
  6. art museums or aquariums
  7. hello kitty cafe or mothman hunting
  8. summoning z̶̧̰̜̬̫͍̻͓͈̳̤̠̈́̂̆̉̍́͒ǎ̷̧̲͍̆̀l̷͍̯͙͖͍̳̻̣͓̕g̶̖̪̊̐́o̴̝̙̹̓͑̈́͊͌̄͠ͅ or having a picnic
  9. getting into a life threatening situation where heartbreaking sacrifices are made and it ends bitersweetly or
  10. making tiktoks or voice acting random videos

go out of your way to just let someone know they’re doing a good job, even if it’s just a couple of words. we’re expected to function everyday without recognition of our efforts and get harshly disciplined when we make mistakes, so just knowing someone sees what you’re doing is really satisfying and uplifting.

you know, a big aspect of wlw tumblr is being all soft for women and dream about picking flowers and living in cottages.

but that’s just not true 100% of the time. sometimes wlw want their breaths to get heavy, have their heart rate shoot up, push someone against the wall and make out w them, get straight up horny. that’s okay! be gay!! fuck women!! screw the notion that wlw have to be soft all the time!!

ah, what I’d do to live in a studio ghibli film with the girl of my dreams, spending each day fighting witches or befriending talking cats

My favourite Hozier lyrics because I’m gay:

“To feel your weight in arms I’d never use, its the god that heroin prays to.”

“But you dont know what hell you put me through, to have someone kiss the skin that crawls from you.”

“She’s the angel of small death and the codeine scene”

“I should’ve worshipped her sooner”

“I’m all but washed in the tide of her breathing.”

If being gay is a “moral problem” as it says according to our schools religion class resources, then its such an fun fucking problem lmao.
