    Totally uncomfortable with the existence of their own dick, plus dating a girl. Quick maths, anon is a lesbian.

      Drag doesn’t believe in lesbians. Drag thinks they’re just gay women. There’s no reason gay women are special in a way that gay men and gay enbies aren’t. The only reason we have the word lesbian, is because sexist old men didn’t think women could really be gay. We should just get rid of the word and say gay woman instead.

        Bad take.

        You’re erasing the existence of Sappho, who was so gay for girls that the island she came from—the place heretofore unknown for anything—is now known for just how goddamn queer she was, and everyone who experiences sapphic love (hey, another word that got coined off of one poet’s fantastically omnipresent woman lust).

        Lesbians. Sapphic lesbians. From Lesbos. That Sappho started. Why?

        Girls pretty.

          And yet nobody calls gay men thessalians, despite Achilles being from Thessaly. It’s because we don’t need to, we already have the word gay. The only reason we don’t just use the word gay for women, is that homophobes thought women couldn’t be gay. They needed a euphemism. We don’t need a euphemism.

            Let’s make things clear: you don’t need a euphemism.

            I want more euphemisms. I want this language to have some goddamn options and I want the number of words in this language to never fucking decrease for any reason.

              Drag thinks that means you want words like aryan and the N word with the hard R to stick around, and drag doesn’t like that opinion.

                Every single one of those words should exist. Even the slurs. That way, we know who’s trouble.

                Motherfucker, I do not believe I made myself clear, so allow me to retort:

                Languages should not ever shrink at all. Ever. Shrinking languages is some nazi-ass, 1984-ass fascist shit.
