all lesbians are valid

It’s the end of lesbian visiblity week, so here’s some more lesbian ghosts✨

[Image ID: A piece of paper split up into eight small boxes. On the first row on the left there’s one smiling ghost in front of the lesbian flag, and on the right of the first row there’s two ghosts floating next to each other smiling at each other in front of the lesbian flag. On the second row to the left there’s a lesbian flag with an aromantic heart in front and then a smiling ghost in front of both, and on the right of the second row there’s an asexual flag with a lesbian heart to represent romantic orientation and a smiling ghost in front of it all. In the third row on the left there’s a smiling ghost in front of the lesboy flag, and on the right of the third row there’s a smiling ghost in front of the bi lesbian flag. On the fourth and bottom row there’s a smiling ghost holding a transgender flag hovering in front of the lesbian flag. And to the right of the fourth row there’s the words “all lesbians are valid” in black crayon. END ID]

(is that okay for the image id?)

You don’t support all Non-binary Lesbians if you don’t support Lesboys/Lesbois/Lesbian men.

Multigender men exist.

Genderfluid men exist.

I wanna use this post as a case study in gender essentialism and TERF rhetoric in lesbianism. And I am going to be making assumptions about OP's beliefs and feelings based on this post and their tags.

[Screenshot of a tumblr post and it's tags. OP's url is not shown:

"I'm a man who identifies as a lesbian" got it you're a fucking predator goodbye.

#men canNOT be lesbians what's not clicking #and the fact that anyone could identify as such or actively support someone identifying as such is fucking sickening #as if men trying to force themselves on lesbians and people trying to force men into our attraction isn't bad enough #now we have people actualy identifying as such??? you are chronically online mf #and no this post does not apply to he/him genderfluid or transmasc lesbians who do not identify as men #but it you identify as a MAN and yet also identify as a lesbian then literally block me #and it's a punch to the face if i ever encounter one of y'all motherfuckers in real life #stop invading lesbian spaces #lesbophobia #anti-lesboys #anti-male lesbians #this is just like the bi lesbian bull #men are not involved in lesbianism what's not fucking clicking #men dni #non-lesbians dni #terfs dni]

So, the core problem this person has with male lesbians is, it seems, that "male lesbians" are inherently predatory and "male lesbian" means forcing female lesbians to be attracted to men. They seem to equate "male lesbian" with "(cis) heterosexual man trying to assault or "fix" lesbian women."

Now, this is in contrast with the people who actually, in good faith (not as a joke) identify as male lesbians/lesboys. These people are commonly

Trans men who have transitioned but still identify as lesbians and are still active in the lesbian community, which has been a thing for decades- despite OP saying it's "chronically online". I would really love to see the reaction if you, in real life, punched an older lesbian trans man for existing in his community with his lesbian wife. Do you think people would be on your side?

Other trans* people who identify as lesbians while also being male in some way (for example, being multigender). I know the OP tries to carve out space for genderfluid/transmasc lesbians, but they still do so in a way that makes it clear that the only trans* people "allowed" to be lesbians are the ones who never actually identify as MEN. Just as a fun reminder to all us weird transes that we gotta make sure we never find ourselves too close to that line, or else we have to give up the labels we care for because The Cises have made it law.

These kinds of people have been identifying as lesbians for decades. Trans male lesbians have been well-documented. Male lesbians frequently find happy relationships with other lesbians who are aware of their gender identity. When you see someone calling themself a "male lesbian" or "lesboy", as an actual identity, it's much more likely they are a trans* person with a complex identity, and not a cishet guy making a stupid joke.

And yet, the OP of this post conflates male lesbians/lesboys with this idea of predatory straight men invading the community, not just through violence but through lies and deception. Men are "predators" who are "invading lesbian spaces" to "force themselves on lesbians" and "force lesbians to be attracted to men." Where have we heard this before?

If you took this post, and removed the comments on genderfluid and transmasc people, and the "terfs dni" at the very end, this would be EXTREMELY easy to read as a terf complaining about trans women who are lesbians. Obviously this person does not identify as a terf, and on some level cares about making that clear. Yet they have the same line of thinking: men cannot be lesbians, because men being lesbians is inherently harmful in itself. Men being lesbians inherently means men assaulting lesbians, no matter the actual person behind the label. Because OP is not thinking about male lesbians as people who are identifying that way out a genuine feeling of connection with the label and a desire for community... they must be doing it for nefarious reasons, because that's what males do.

And this person could hypothetically be a crypto-TERF, but I really don't think they are. I think this is a person who genuinely does not like TERFs, and wants to support trans women. They don't want to be a harmful person to people that they are supposed to support.

Yet, they are. Being a TERF or hating trans women, in progressive queer spaces, is a social faux pas, but hating men isn't. So for radical feminist ideology to take root, all it has to do is change "men" from "people assigned male at birth" to "anyone who identifies as a man", and then suddenly you have people who "hate TERFs" who agree wholeheartedly with TERF rhetoric. Because while they might be able to recognize that viewing trans women as predators in lesbian spaces is Wrong, they- and we as queer people in general- have not acknowledged as much how hatred of men is a foundational part of TERF transmisogyny.

So people will freely regurgitate TERF beliefs- men are inherently predatory and dangerous, and this is why men can't be lesbians, because allowing men in women's spaces puts them all in danger, so women must isolate themselves from men and any man who tries to enter a woman's space is a predator- but because they insist that they don't mean "trans women" when they say "men", they feel it's completely unrelated to radical feminism.

Also, notice the hatred to bi lesbians as well! It's almost like radical feminists don't like them very much either, for the same reason (lesbian spaces must be pure!!!!!)

hello mogai radinclus community!!

im making this post in order to get some answers to my questions! im currently doing research about various topics, and today im going to start with: good faith identities and contradictory labels!!

so my question is; What do you consider to be good faith identities and contradictory labels?

im genuinely only making this post because i cant find ANY resources about them, so i'll probably make my own definition resource rentry, so i need a lot of opinions :3 if you are going to reblog and answer, please be specific with your answer!! please and thank you!! and also, you can talk about your own experiences with complex gender/orientation/etc as well !!

For example, I personally consider good faith identities the following:

Good faith identities and Contradictory Labels can include:

Mspec Monos such as Mspec Lesbians/Gays/Bis/Straights (but not limited to them)

Sapphileans, Gaybians

queerhets, cisqueers (including straightbians/straightvincians, etc)

afab transfem and amab transmasc (of any sex)

Lesboys/Lesbois

Turigirls/Veldigirls

and many more!!

perhaps you can add non-lesbian butches/futches/femmes and non-gay bears/twinks/otters/etc ??

tag list for reach & boost! you are more than free to ignore!! i will only tag those who are openly pro good faith and contradictory labels!!

-> @genderstarbucks @neopronouns @haunted-thing @caeliangel @sage-writes-n-coins-mogai (i cant find anyone else DAMN)

even if you're not tagged and you're seeing this, feel free to reblog and respond!!

i could've never guessed tagging people would be so stressing

I think all infighting in any sort of minority community should explode into a billion pieces. Like.. you guys are supposed to be buddies. The LGBTQ+ community? Why are people IN IT trying to split it up?? That's exactly what the people who hate us WANT us to do, because it'll make it easier to kill us. Who fucking cares if someone's a boy and also a lesbian??? Who cares if someone doesn't feel romantic attraction?? We're supposed to be in this together??? Straights all hate us can we at least bond over that

and like. ND people? like systems?? Does it really matter if someone's system didn't start from a traumatic event? You're still being oppressed by ableists, guys. Fighting won't really help you... And no, someone else's systems lack of a trauma won't affect your own trauma-inducing event. Can we all pretty please work together so we can all stop being hated and wronged minorities? That'd be really cool in my opinion

We're in this together, whether we want to be or not . Hate isn't necessary . It'll only hurt us all in the end; even if these two examples don't seem like there's much overlap, if the government succeeds in ridding one, the government will rid so many others .

just work together and get along, for fucks sake . There's no reasonable explanation for why we shouldn't.
