Sick of people treating any sort of overlap between lesbian and bi women’s communities as a thing of the past. If you are a bi woman who dates women you are going to end up in “lesbian spaces”, “lesbian culture” is often going to be your culture, and “lesbian issues” are often going to be your issues. Bi women should not be expected to just like. shut up and let the REAL Sapphics™ take the reins in every single conversation ever, especially not in conversations where a bi woman’s perspective is noticeably lacking. Despite it all this is still My Community and thus I am going to be affected by its issues. Lol
Like I know that bi positivity posts have convinced everyone on this website that all bi women are monogamously married to a normie cishet man but still post “step on me 😍” tweets about women in Marvel movies, but a very considerable amount of bisexual women primarily or even exclusively date women, are partially or fully immersed in Lesbian Culture as their primary interaction with The Community, are still bisexual, and are thus going to be a little bit critical of the prevalence of shit like idk. “if you’re into women but have fantasies about pegging men it’s actually just comphet”. We are part of your community and you should listen to us sometimes
I believe that lesbian and bi women’s communities are inherently interlinked and I believe both that bi women should be allowed and encouraged to critique the biphobia that can exist within “lesbian spaces”, AND that lesbians should be allowed and encouraged to critique the lesbophobia that can exist within “bisexual spaces”. This is how you ACTUALLY foster a sense of intercommunity kinship and “solidarity”, not just by reblogging “in real life lesbians and bi women are kissing!!!!!” posts
