That has made me less than enthused about trying to join lesbian communities.” - Amaranthe Rae. “There are a lot of stereotypes about female friendship and patriarchal society tends to invalidate w/w relationships if they don’t have sex. We are not “just friends” just because we don’t have intercourse.” - Tefa.“There is no right way to be a lesbian, and complexity of labeling does not mean confusion or lack of experience.” - Mel. “It’s interesting, for me these two parts of myself pretty much go together. I couldn’t really talk about my aromanticism without mentioning my lesbian identity, or vice versa. They have a synergistic relationship.” - Y. “I wish allo people knew that not every aspec lesbian is the same. It truly is a huge spectrum and each person’s experience will be different and unique.” - Lucia.” -- source link
