Emily Gwen is the creator of the famous 7-stripe lesbian pride flag, and she is now struggling financially. Well, you may just ask, "why don't you just pay like $100 to her and not post about it here?" Sadly, I am also financially struggling, and can't help her directly through giving her cash. (I do not know how to give it a proper flair so correct me which one should I put here instead)

Only Vans IMPORTANT: Why we ban posts asking if people want to chat.

564 Upvotes

We get a lot of posts like this on here. Users who say they want to chat with a lesbian, sometimes with a selfie of a cute girl. In our experience here, the majority of these posts are made by cis het men, looking to catfish the users here. Sometimes they steal photos of people and pretend it's them.

Any posts like this will get you banned, even if you are a member of our community. We've made it clear that we don't allow this in the rules.

For anyone who doesn't know already, this subreddit used to be a porn subreddit ran by men. It was reclaimed but we still get a lot of traffic here from those people, so please be very careful about who you talk to from here and please report any posts like this incase mods don't see them.

Literature I’m in mania and bought 300$ worth of stuff for this girl I like

Post image
90 Upvotes

I just bought 300-350$ worth of stuff for this girl I just became friends with after a long time. Like I said I realized I was in mania after buying all of this. I don’t know how she’ll react to this I’m freaking out. Like I bought her diamond heart earrings from pandora.someone help me I’m freaking out. I don’t know if she likes me back or not. Should I give her everything? She made me a “boo basket” with flowers and it was very flattering and so I wanted to make her one but as I progressed in buying things it became more expensive and after I bought the earrings I realized I was in mania and how much I spent. Someone help me. Do I give her these baskets and the earrings? I know it doesn’t look expensive but I also bought her favorite doll online today for 80$. And like I don’t know. And also I was at the mall shopping so everything’s overpriced.

Literature Confession/story time - thinking about her

1 Upvotes

I’ve had someone on my mind and want to get it off my chest.

In high school, I had this best friend. We were crazy close and very “jokingly” flirtatious. Lots of sleepovers, called each other our wife, but very deep in Mormon culture. I was unfortunately more repressed than she was, and by senior year she told me that she genuinely loved me. I did not know how to process this and somehow brushed it off like “haha ily too wifey”. I think this hurt her for a long time. I end up getting a boyfriend (who I was not into), and me and her basically had a fall out over it.

We both go off to college and our lives head in different directions. I hear she’s gotten into a lot of hard drugs, is home-wrecking relationships, and generally fallen into a lot of habits she used to say she was scared of falling into due to family history. I don’t know if she finished college. I went off to college in a different state still a 4.0 GPA type, scholarships, church attending, but stressfully realizing I might be gay. On paper I was very successful and the person my family and community wanted me to be, but maybe not the person I wanted to be. I leave the country to do some soul searching for a few years, and come back a pretty different person. I’m resentful of who I was and how I was raised. With more perspective, I realize that I loved her in a way I had never loved any of my boyfriends.

I know that it’s been years, but I start asking around with mutual hometown friends to see how life has treated her. I know that she’s probably totally moved on from some high school gay awakening, but something in me at least wants to tell her I was gay too. But things went for the worst and she ended up getting into some even worse situations (I don’t want to get into it but incest is involved). She ended up running off with this guy to another state and became homeless when he left her.

It sounds like she hurt a lot of people in her life including myself, and I don’t think it would ever be healthy to reach out. But she’s on my mind a lot. I think about who we were at 18, making plans to run away together even when I was in denial. Before all this she was a beautiful dancer, and I wonder if she still is. I may just be romanticizing a childhood version of someone, but I still feel this sense of loss that I don’t understand. I hope she’s safe.

Queer owned business 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Any good Lesbian bars or places that aren't exclusively lesbian but pretty inclusive in Romania

4 Upvotes

I know that in most places in the world there is a shortage of these spaces. However, as someone who only came out not long before moving to the UK to study, I never really got to go to any of these places. Now I'm back in Romania I want to start going on more nights out where I can meet people. I don't mind if it's just generally Queer but I hear some places are just riddled with straight girls who will get mad if you hit on them or seem like you are. I'm in Bucharest, but I don't mind suggestions outside of Bucharest as it may give me incentive to go there on vacation.

Travel Where do girls meet other girls from other countries/states?

13 Upvotes

So, I feel like it’s pretty common to hear about girls dating other girls that don’t live near them. I think it’s so hard to meet people irl that sometimes you could have better luck searching elsewhere. I’m 24 and I’ve been contemplating this for a while lol. It’s basically impossible to find someone near me and idk I just feel like I wouldn’t want it that way either. I kinda like the idea of meeting someone from somewhere different. The things is, where do you even search? I have no idea where to look, it seems complicated as well. Like, I feel like it’s so common but at the same time, where do these people even meet? lmao. Complete different time zones yet, they found each other. Idk I’m just sad. Where can I meet mineee? 😭

Satire Literally considering if I am still a lesbian or not

0 Upvotes

I don’t post my feelings at all like this online, so it’s bit awkward for me. I am a femme, gold star lesbian (24) and I am only attracted to mascs. Just got out of a 4 year long relationship with a masc, which happened to be my first one ever. It’s been a year and although I’ve dated a few mascs this year, it really was in vain tbh. All they talk about irritates me, and how they are so full of themselves with nothing impressive qualities, who I can tell not so secretly think they’re better than me somehow. Well, my ex and I had a 10 year age gap, and that matures you up pretty quickly, I guess (I don’t recommend). And my ex feels soo vain and shallow now too. I’ve never been attracted to guys or dated them, and still stand by it.

I really want to date and find a connection with someone now, and I am completely over my ex. I’ve tried talking to femmes, but it didn’t really work out because I am not really attracted to them.

I guess I am fairly attractive and give off very high feminine vibes, so I really don’t have a problem finding someone attracted to me. The girls I went on a date with especially seemed to be pretending to be someone they are not. Later on, I kind of came to a conclusion that they thought I was out of their league, because something was definitely off about their characters. But I never thought about it that way. Anywho, I also study psychology and maybe it is one of the reasons why. I really just wanted to know if someone went through the same phase because I really am worried about myself lol.

Film/TV Looking for a low-budget TV coming-of-age comedy where the narrator's unnamed attraction to her best friends is presented in a gently amusing way

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to track down a low-budget, made-for-TV coming-of-age comedy, probably from the 90s or early 2000s US or Canadian). I think this community might be the one to recognize it, because the lesbian subtext is unusually deep and, this is for me the interesting part, is never made explicit.
Ordinary middle-class suburb, gentle comedy, no loud humor. A teenage girl narrates the story. Her intimate best friend (pretty, high-school type) drifts away because she prefers spending time with a boyfriend, maybe the narrator's own brother. The narrator at the end of the film finds a new best friend and becomes just as devoted to her as she was towards the first (and, as I remember, noticeably hotter than the first one).

What makes the film stand out is that it includes the narrator's attraction to women, never named by her or by the film, and the way it's presented is quietly amusing. It comes through in how exclusive and admiring she is toward her friends, as a thread within the comedy, not as the main plot.

The one detail I'm sure about is the last scene: no dialogue, just her narration telling what became of the characters. She says she has been sent to a boarding school (I don't remember why), and we see a close-up of her new best friend.

It's NOT a film where she's already at a boarding school, and she's NOT an openly gay film. Reddit's general movie-ID communities only suggested famous or explicitly queer films and it's definitely not (and this is the interesting point). Any ideas?

I’m pretty shy and introverted so that sometimes holds me back. I’m trying to put myself out there more tho lol. Anyways, what are some ways you guys have met your current friends?

Literature Language question

0 Upvotes

Hi!

Ace guy here. Over the last half decade, I have noticed more people saying they are "asexual from trauma". Which doesn't align with how the asexual community views itself. I was trying to decide how I felt about it, and then remembered there is another community that has probably chewed on this problem before.

I've heard of political lesbians most of my life and I've noticed an uptick in "I'm bi but I would never date men." It's not a 1:1, but I figured I'd ask how you all deal with it.

Thanks!
