Yo I am not gonna hold it against any of you who have reblogged it but I hate, hate the “feminist brain vs lesbian brain” meme that’s going around because even though I know it’s meant to be a funny joke, my fear that being a lesbian would make me a bad feminist because I’d be objectifying women by allowing myself to be attracted to them was literally what kept me in the closet & contributed to confusion and depression for years!!!!!!!

I had to work so hard to learn that lesbian attraction to women is not the same as male objectification of women!! That I wasn’t predatory or anti-feminist for being sexually interested in women!!!!! That being sexually attracted to women can, in fact, be in line with my feminism!!!

And lest any TERFs think this post is an okay point of identification and validation, consider the following: 1) fuck you and 2) many trans lesbians and wlw experience this on much greater levels than I have as a cis lesbian and 3) trans lesbians and wlw are most definitely not anti-feminist or predatory for their attraction to women.
