What bothers me, is that this creates this idea for some men that they can “change” or convince lesbians. If you’re like “Oh I’m a lesbian, but I have a boyfriend.” You’re going to make some men think they just have to ask enough and that lesbians just “need a good d” to turn straight again.
Why lesbian over bi, if I may ask? Do you find yourself moving between the two labels when it’s convenient or would be awkward to say? Like, if you meet his family-- do you tell them you’re actually a lesbian?
No, I totally get that, and I hate that I “prove” that stereotype. I hear that shit all the time and frankly, it’s disgusting.
I identify more with lesbian, because quite frankly I’m not physically attracted to guys like…at all. I just happen to really be attached to this one guy in particular. Outside of him, I’ve never had a male romantic partner, and should we break up at some point, I don’t see myself doing it again.

Lesbians aren’t toys to play with when you’re bored.
I’m a lesbian. I’ve had times where I’m hella single and don’t go to dudes because I’m bored or lonely. If I did, I would consider myself pan/bi.
You’re bi, just say you’re bi. You can’t be a certain percentage of something like that.

Nah, I think I’ll identify how I please.
