Can we please take labels off of everything? I guess not.
says the heterosexual who never had to worry about labelling their sexuality, never had to think about their sexuality, never had their sexuality denied to them on a mass scale, was never forced to cover up their sexuality, is never discriminated against based on their sexuality, never felt alone in their sexuality, etc etc etc
no i will not cover up the sexualities of myself and my fellow lesbians. we have the label of lesbian. we label ourselves as lesbian because we choose to, because that is our sexuality and that label is, for many of us, something that has been denied to us or questioned in the past. and we will label ourselves (and other characters that are – u know – confirmed to be lesbians) as that no matter how much society wants us not to and tries to pretend we don’t exist. because we do fucking exist. and we’re not confused, and we’re not transient, we’re fucking gay.
