    There’s a weird thing with “conquest”, pulling the ladies, and being somewhat deviant that’s tied to manliness and straightness for some reason.

        Lesbians being well known as universally well adjusted women at the pinnacle of mental health? No weird paleolithic-brain shit going on at all? Nice.

            No, that’s accurate. But laugh implies derision and sense of superiority…over the thing you were responding to…

            I was pointing out lesbians are humans too and not magically immune to stupid relationship things and behaviors. It should be pretty non-controversial but I guess I was wrong.

              I mean we are superior for other reasons. But no. The same internalized misogyny still applies. That’s why I wrote laughs in lesbian as if conquest is just a straight man thing.

              Your sarcasm about us being the pinnacle of mental health is why you got the downvotes. It’s an allusion to gay = crazy, which ya know, with us being in the DSM until more recently is offensive.
