@mira whats the take

[mira@ak.kumis.industries]

@swagpuppy420 the og take is a bi girl proclaiming that she is doing the most revolutionary thing in existence by deciding to not sleep with men anymore (for about 6 months at the time of writing lol) and saying that the choice to be a lesbian (aka "fully committing to the bit") is like peak feminism

and the reaction is ooga booga i was born this way and there is nothing political about that the only thing political is people not leaving me alone about it, but also we should be nice to men (don't ask me how this became part of the discourse, i do not understand because there wasn't even " misandry" allegations from what i saw)

@mira @swagpuppy420

its 2026 and people are boasting about their political lesbianism??

[mira@ak.kumis.industries]

@letsbekind2 @swagpuppy420 its not even political lesbianism it was just cringe ass shit, like political lesbianism has at least some amount of political content to it but this was just a bisexual who feels really weird about liking men coping in a very lesbophobic way

@mira@kumis.industries @swagpuppy420@little.tinypuppy.dog @letsbekind2@transfeminine.art "I'm not sleeping with men" is only ~1/3rd of what political lesbianism is about... Backlash feminism has rendered people just illiterate
