Dani describing comphet is so deeply personal to me

I feel like something that I've never been talked to about is the mourning process gone through as lesbians let go of traditional heterosexual lifestyles. We were taught as kids to look forward to a relationship with a man and having a husband and doing all thr things that we're taught to believe is great. And on top of that society carries this belief that men are needed by women so that women are cared for and provided for by a man and also that a man would bring security in our lives.

Obviously that isn't an okay standard but I think one of the biggest troubles or grief I've felt attached to compulsory heterosexuality is this idea that I won't have a man to protect me. I think it's an especially hard pill for me to swallow and maybe others too is because I and many other lesbians didn't have a great relationship with my father. Having a male figure isn't needed but it does make me feel sad that I'll never be able to have a relationship with a man where I'm cherished and loved and protected and cared for. I think that's one of the reasons I struggle with comphet so much and why I didn't realize I might be a lesbian until recently within these past 2 years

Happy pride month here’s a list of my finest moments as yr friendly neighborhood lesbian flight attendant

When a guy at the hotel bar whom i thought was being nice and genuinely wanted to talk abt superheroes suggestively asked what my room number was and i, in shock, replied “gay”

When a man on the plane grabbed my necklace (a musketball, roughly the circumference of a quarter) and loudly asked “is that a ball gag?” And i, in shock, replied “no im gay”

When a ramper gave his number to the gate agent and told her to give it to me and i said “oh no tell him im gay” and she laughed and said “yea i get that” and i said “no i really am gay” bc heaven forbid she think im straight lol and she said “yea me too”

When a 12yo boy confessed to me that he was nervous abt coming out to his dad as trans so i had a 2 hr long conversation w him and gave him 20 bags of pretzels

When a butch lesbian asked if i was local and i said “no im just here for the night” and she said “oh, what kind of a night do you want it to be? 😘”

When i told the other FA (straight woman, 40s) i was gay and she immediately launched into an emotional story about the sapphic love affair she had at an away camp when she was 18

When my captain told me he was in a ldr and i said “oh me too” and he said “yeah, my partner’s a man tho” and i said “oh mine’s a woman” and he had a look of surprised gay elation

When the whole crew went out for drinks and realized all but one of us were lgbt and we all turned to the (straight) captain and he looked like this: 😬

When a butch ramp agent found out i was gay and gave me her number and i said “oh im taken” and she said “that’s fine i just need more gay friends”

When i came out to my (straight) captain and he said “but……you don’t wear pants…”

When i (drunk) and my first officer (drunk) started gushing abt how much we love our girlfriends and our captain (not drunk) said “you two should have a double wedding” so we spent the rest of the night planning one and made a joint wedding registry on amazon

My friend's bi, so I feel like she should get me saying, "I'm less afraid of the relationship part with a girl, and more of the people around us and how they'll react", but she just gives me a weird look, like she feels like I'm being dramatic or something. Like yeah, we live in a pretty liberal country where a majority are for LGBT+ equality, but that doesn't mean people don't have prejudices or that we won't get assaulted, one way or another. Like, that's my biggest fear right now, alongside coming out to the less understanding people in my life. Maybe it's rude to say, but I feel like since she's never had a proper crush on a girl or wanted a relationship with a girl only, instead of boys too, then she doesn't really get how I feel. Like, I only want girls, and that's terrifying, 'cause anything I do in a relationship is then turned into a political statement, and I don' t want that. I want to just be with a girl, like it's the easiest and most common thing in the world.

Practicing drawing eyebrows, it's pretty neat. A bit proud of the lone one, looks more realistic than the other two. Basically, I'm improving, slowly but surely 😊

When you’re a lesbian and your first kiss is a stage kiss with a gay boy. Tragic.

She Kissed Me First is out on Amazon now. Mason Riley is a college counselor in great need of physical touch. The woman of her dreams passes her office window every day but all Mason can muster is a long and secret stare. When Mason’s best friend finds Mason’s perfect woman on a dating app Mason’s world must decidedly change. But how can an anti social bookworm who has had very little in the way of love accept that a beautiful woman is actually interested in her?

Useless (cute) wlw story

Okay, so I’d never been kissed before. And we were at her house and we were holding hands and her mom was being all watchy-watchy in the kitchen because homophobia is a real thing but I didn’t really care because I was at my girlfriend’s hOUSE. And her brother left the room and her mom went outside and she was walking towards me and I was confused, thinking “why is she getting so close?” because we’ve hugged before and we’ve nudged each other and we’ve held hands but her face was so close to mine and then her mouth was on the place right under my nose, above my upper lip, and I was confUSED. And then she pulled away and said, “you didn’t move!” 

So suddenly I understood that she had tried to kiss me, and like the idiot that I am, I was so shocked that I lost my balance and stumbled over all the moving boxes and pretty much fell, all while she looked at me in mild horror. And before I could even process what had happened fully, never mind try to plant one on her in reassurance, her brother came back into the room.

Luckily, I got her back later while she was washing dishes. And it was pretty great.

the first time she kisses you, she smells like springtime. she rolls down the hill beside you, laughing as small wildflowers tangle in her hair. you are enamored, as you’ve always been. the familiar curve of her back; you’ve laid across her at every sleepover. the slight expanse of her shoulders; you’ve rubbed sunscreen across them for countless summers, always secretly longing for more. you never realized that she’s been longing too.

I'm kind of, like, done with the "I call everyone dude, it's not gendered" thing. Like, no shade, I just really don't feel like doing it anymore. It still feels gendered. Like, I wouldn't call a woman in a ball gown dude, but I could do it to her husband. So idk, I think I'm gonna cut down on it. Make my language just generally even less gendered, and use dude with close friends.
