Literally hundreds of LGBT people on this site: mogai culture hurt me and prolonged the time it took for me to work out my identity because the microlabelling system reinforced my internalised homophobia/transphobia. whilst some people do find the system helpful it needs to be managed more effectively and we need to acknowledge that over analysing attraction is most often not healthy and can do a lot of damage Pro mogai: um?? First of all, that wasn’t MY experience so none of this has ever happened to anyone ever. secondly, wow. thanks for calling my identity inherently homophobic you bigoted fucks

[heckinlesbeans]

hey if you ever feel bad or uncomfortable or even ashamed of your sexuality just remember: you GET to love women. how fucking cool is that. women are a fucking delight and even if you can’t feel good about yourself rn, revel in the fact that you have the privilege of loving!!! women!!!

honestly if you want to take proper care of your goths you shouldn’t take them outside in hot weather at all, just winter and MAYBE late autumn/early spring if you live in a cool climate

people really should do this kind of research before getting goths at all but as long as they’re willing to learn and adapt i guess

[amgeforns]

there are breeds of goth suitable for warmer climes but you have to be very careful when looking for one and you cannot assume that your goth is one of them if you don’t know for sure what they are

[thievesguilding]

even the warm-climate breeds still usually do better in their native locale’s winter temperatures though, and shouldn’t be left outside in the summer unattended or, at the bare minimum, they should be given plentiful shade, cold water, and appropriate music to keep them calm

[corvidobligation]

Honestly, if you want something less fragile than a goth, you should be considering something like a punk anyway. There’s no need to expose goths to the heat, IMHO. Admittedly there’s differences you need to do research on, but punks are very rewarding. And for God’s sake, if anyone tells you ANY emo can handle the heat, run. They don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about.

[thievesguilding]

goths aren’t fragile though? they’re not heat-tolerant but they’re extremely hardy in dark and stormy weather, metal concerts, and dramatic emotional episodes. just because they aren’t well-suited to one weather pattern doesn’t mean they can’t be extremely hardy and rewarding to keep under conditions they’re better suited to.

[wetwareproblem]

Forget the climate thing, there’s a more important husbandry issue here: WHO THE FUCK PUT THEM OUT IN THE DAYTIME? Direct sunlight is extremely harmful to goths! THey should never be outdoors before twilight! Do your damn research, people.

[thievesguilding]

you’re missing a key point though

goths need the opportunity to complain about sunlight, it’s vital to their wellbeing; as long as their time in it is carefully controlled and they’re given sufficient sunscreen and shade, it can be amazing and 100% necessary enrichment

[wetwareproblem]

Look at that picture. Look at it. Please tell me where the shade is, because I don’t see any. I see two goths wilting in direct sunlight. Just look at how flat their hair is! This is not even remotely acceptable care.

when wlw say that butches are over-represented in terms of lesbians in media, they more often than not are exposing their discomfort with and subsequent desire to distance themselves from actual butch lesbians.

I can’t think of one mainstream tv show currently on air featuring an actual butch - we are actually really hurting for genuine portrayals of lesbians, butch and otherwise. So when I hear (usually young, usually gender conforming) wlw say these things, my heart hurts because it’s clearly an effort to say “you can be lesbian without being a big bad butch that the world warned me not to become!” and “I’m much more comfortable with my identity being associated with gender conforming women.” And I really urge anyone who’s thinking that way introspect about their internalized lesbophobia.

Butches make me proud to be a lesbian and seeing them on screen or just out living their lives makes me so happy.

[thesireofsorrow]

honestly I’ve transcended into a whole other plane of existence just by being a lesbian
