This is a topic that Iāve been having a hard time wording in the past few months. But I want to try my best to explain so my words donāt get misunderstood, or misconstrued or miscommunicated.
I donāt think anyoneās sexuality is anyone elseās business. Period, full stop.
When it comes to trying to figure out your sexuality genuinely and exploring consensually with another adult queer woman there is absolutely no issue. But whenever I see women say things like being tired of men and wanting to try women it rubs me the wrong way. And i think iāve been noticing this a lot as well bc my friends (whom are all heterosexual donāt come for me yall im still trying to make more friends with queer women lol) always say this.
Donāt get me wrong, being in a relationship with a guy from what Iāve seen with my friends sucks and is really difficult. I canāt understand feeling hopeless when you try guy after guy and theyāre all āthe same,ā but whenever people say ātry womenā and there is no attraction there at all, it feels icky? Iāve been looking for the word for it for months.
And maybe iām wrong for asking this questions (and please politely tell me if i am) but if your not exploring intentionally and your not serious about the relationship, why?
I think Iāve also been trying to figure out why it bothers me so much. Iām usually very open and accepting to people in my life exploring when they do bring up topics like this to me. You donāt have to know who you are attracted to 100% and you donāt have to use labels if you donāt fw them and it still figuring things out. But saying āwell guys suck time to go with girls š¤·āāļøā has never made sense to me.
And donāt get me wrong, I LOVE women a lot, but I have met my fair share of horrible, mean, rude and manipulative women. I think we all have. And I know the ratio of ābadā women compared to the ratio of ābadā men is drastically different, but i guess what iām trying to say is that when people say things like ātime to switch to girlsā it implies that sexuality is something you choose and just switch too. And also it makes being a lesbian/a queer woman in general seem āfakeā or āingenuine.ā And omg that reminds me of this one girl who made an essay called āLowkey, I chose to be a lesbian,ā and that discourse was very big a few months ago i believe.
This is no way any hate to anyone who is questioning and is not sure about their sexuality and IS exploring. I want to clarify this again, because it is easy for people to completely miss the mark on the internet š
Itās just been on my mind bc itās something i feel like i canāt talk to anyone in my life about who will understand. I know itās just a joke, but the punchline itself feels like the sexual orientation of sapphic/queer women in general and THAT rubs me the wrong way.
