People who identify as bi lesbians are not being lesbo or biphobic. They are identifying themselves in what feels right.

People feel like they need these identifiers because y& #39;all IMMEDIATELY associate bi with male attraction and guess what?
Lesbian doesn& #39;t include nonbinary people if it makes them uncomfortable.

I& #39;m nonbinary, someone saying that their lesbian and they can like me is, to me, insinuating that I am a women/women lite. That makes me uncomfortable as fuck.
You don& #39;t get to decide what& #39;s okay for people.

This "lesbian has always included nonbinary people" is so gross and so invalidating to me, because I am not a woman, and saying that lesbians include me makes me feel like you& #39;re saying I am.
So all you anti-bi lesbians are invalidating several identities. Someone& #39;s good intentions, personal identity is not made to invalidate yours.

I& #39;m so sick of this conflict. Bi lesbians were a definition and a thing until the 70s, when white feminists decided it was lesbophobic.
Here& #39;s a great thread by @captaintransma on some definitions and reasons for bi lesbian discourse. https://twitter.com/captaintransma/status/1265155074780655616?s=19">https://twitter.com/captaintr...
So can y& #39;all please stop invalidating identities and gatekeeping?

I& #39;m like *this* close to cutting mutuals with people and ruining several group chats and friend groups for myself.
