#lesbian pride flag talk

[vellichorom]

yes i will call thierry a woman. yes you may also. he is whatever you want him to be

#twinkie talks #TSP blogging #i've spent almost 3 years thinking about his gender i still don't know what it is. i've always liked cis or trans man narrator.... #but idc YOU decide #someday i'm going to make my own fandom content & just post thierry over a ton of pride flags & confuse everyone to hell #THE ONLY THING I'M SURE OF IS THAT HE'S GOT HE / HIM PRONOUNS & HE LIKES MEN #( rosemary & your self insert count as men ) #i've seen people refer to him as just butch or butch lesbian & i really love that idea #someone said he's genderqueer once god bless #fuck it make that man a lesboy let's go

are they. are they wearing a pride flag. what.

what.

#i talk a lot <3 #crown prince sells medicine #cpsm #someone who knows more about flags do you recognize this #it looks... a lot like the omni flag but the blues are wrong and there's two extra colors but like??? #and it looks a lot more like the omni lesbian flag but that's like. a really obscure one. #was it a coincidence???? why does i look so much like a pride flag????? am i making something out of nothing???

like we are on our nine billionth positivity post for cis men with beards and masculine trans men and feminine lesbians and bi people in m/f relationships and nb people who are comfortable passing as their agab etc.... do we need more? is straight people not being able to tell you're gay/trans really the biggest issue facing lgbt people right now?

there seems to be this undiminishable reservoir of care and sympathy for the very idea of having ur queerness slighted in any context. meanwhile people who never get the choice whether or not to hide it are routinely dehumanised, othered, and ignored. if the issues facing these groups do get discussed it's almost never with much concern for their feelings. invalidation and erasure may be one of the issues facing lgbt people and it deserves attention too but I really don't think you can claim at this point that it isn't getting its fair share already.

for what it's worth, even your hypothetical most flaming butch lesbian/fem gay man/androgynous nb person etc still meets people who assume they're cishet, who even actively refuse to acknowledge that they're not. the false equivalence between erasure and overt prejudice alleged exclusively by those who largely experience only the former is in fact erasing the reality of people who experience both

#I'm always thinking abt that one buzfeed article called like queer women share their struggles or smth #one was a butch lesbian talking abt how carefully she has to plan journeys #bc late night toilet stops or seedy motels are life and death for her #then there was a bi woman w a husband n kids #talking abt how one time she had to take her pride flag off her lawn (picket fence implied lol) #like... ofc that's sad I feel sad for her #but the lack of proportion is kind of on the nose lol #I don't have the right words but like something very fetishistic abt the gaze of other lgbt ppl towards 'visibly' lgbt people #and I use those terms loosely bc ppl r visible and invisible in different contexts #but if you've reached the stage of fantasising abt hypothetical microaggressions or straight up hate crimes that could happen to u #then u have gone too far #I just think a lot of the time it's more abt the fact that YOU don't feel 'valid' enough in yourself #ao you convince yourself other lgbt people existing or talking abt our issues is the problem #like if ur a bi girl n having a cishet bf makes u feel so lonely and insecure and 'not gay enough' at what point is that ur responsibility #to either accept urself or to be in relationships that make u feel better about urself #and not my responsibility to say ur having gay sex with jakey or wjayever

With pride month coming up, I'd like to remind people to pay attention to when the lesbian flag is excluded from designs or posts or merch drops or whatever. I personally don't reblog pride sets that don't include it, and while you're free to do whatever, please just pay attention.

We have our own flag and we have the right to not just be bunched under the rainbow flag as any other identity with their own flag does. The community flag is trans, nonbinary, and gnc inclusive and was personally voted on by. Well. The community. It's also so pretty? Don't ignore her.

Lesbophobia on this site has been. Atrocious lately and lesbians need all the outside support we can get, even if it's small things like ignoring those who ignore us! Please support lesbians this pride month!!! 🧡💛🤍🩷❤️

#lesbian #lesbophobia #pride month #i know this is a silly thing but even though the flag was established in 2018(?) i STILL see people exclude it #lesbians are struggling to find home in the community right now #i am in so many different lesbian groups and talk to so many lesbians and #nearly everyone #lesbians of all ages races and gender identities #has faced some form of extreme homophobia/lesbophobia from WITHIN the community the past several months #and it hurts my heart to see my sisters and siblings so unwelcomed #so please... just pay a little more attention and listen to lesbians #thank you and have a good day :> #-ur local femme

[diligently-metastasizing]

This may be a hot take, but online flag and label discourse doesn't actually help the community. If anything it just takes attention away from actual queer issues and exemplifies yt queer privilege.

#this includes those posts talking about how to treat lgbtq people online too #I appreciate the sentiment #but I think we should worry more about the epidemic of violence black transgender individuals are facing #idk #lgbtqia #pride month #queer #flag discourse #label discourse #actually queer #gay #trans #lesbian #bi #pan #xenogender

[spiribia]

apparently they recently changed the name of the middle top row coloration. i wonder why

#talks #LMFAOOOOO. it's the nonbinary flag on purpose by the way. they have an ultra rare pride series #i have a lesbian psittacosaurus that i didnt realize was lesbian

More pride flag edits! I might have posted some of these before, I haven’t gotten around to sorting them properly yet, as there are ~300 to go through and put in folders and such. Feel free to use these for whatever!

#kinda laughin at that one pan flag cause for me it is displaying as just yellow #pansexual #bisexual #lesbian #nonbinary #transgender #I know the lesbian flag has some controversy but tbh I just use the flag people tell me to. #that one was made for one of my irl friends and she wanted that flag used #don’t yell at me if I’m wrong about which flag has controversy man I’m just a dumbass #pride flag edits #gay #accidentally deleted that tag shhh we don’t talk about it #from the drafts #shh this draft was made in like 2020 I don’t want to talk about it…

happy pride! my workplace being so welcoming to queer people is definitely one of the biggest surprises of the entire year, and i, as a closeted person working to come out of their shell, am having the weirdest whiplash ever

#memes talks #misc. #when i mean welcoming i mean #they made pride merch and are doing a float for this year's pride #and also there are visibly queer people at work #like rainbow glasses or like. The Butch Lesbian Look #some people have rainbow flags on their desks #people have their pronouns on so many applications #it's so WEIRD #in a good way mind you

pride month is great for art becuase i have soo many ideas and a whole month to draw them! this doesn’t mean i will draw them but the amount of time i have to think about it is nice

#skye's ramblings #i will take any excuse to talk abt my hcs. and one thing abt me is i love to draw my little guys covered in pride flags <3 #i drew 3 t/pn character hcs last year but didnt post em because. idk <3 but 2/3 dont align w my current hcs now so its fine <3 its fine #however gilda still is undeniably a lesbian. i am glad so much of tublr is in agreement abt this <3 #definitely want to draw my hcs for the main 5 kids at the very least <3 maybe some raydon n giIdayshe. somethig centered on my lesbian hcs #maybe some ships i dont think abt much but still really like. uhhh transgenderism. emma n ray genderfuck besties. t4t illness. gp hcs?? #see soo many of these. my plans <3 but motivation is a lot more. finicky in summer. the only one im guaranteeing is th first one <3 #i'll probably do that hc doodle ask game that goes around every june too. look at my little guys flags boy #in not-art news i hope i can go to pride this year <3 my friends n i have wanted to go together since 2019. this is my year i can feelit #we were always stopped by something. the world-ending pandemic was a pretty big one #anywayay i love june i love. colors and stripes

every day i have to see people stick that toothpaste gay flag on leo im about to start a union

#STOPPPP STOP USING THE TOOTHPASTE FLAG STOP USING THE LESBIAN FLAG RECOLOR #leo would NEVERRRRR. NEVER!!!! #there is no world where he wouldnt just adore the rainbow pride flag and im talking the full 7 stripe vers too #he would never buy into that wE nEeD oUr oWn fLag discourse he loves the rainbow flag i know this #pride month comes around and he just gets rainbow Everything to dress up in

[labyrynth]

imma be honest this whole toothpaste flag nonsense feels a whole lot like mark hamill going “aww, everyone has a musical theme EXCEPT for luke…i want a theme too!!” and then everyone else going “mark. you have a theme. luke is the main character, mark. the MAIN THEME is your theme.”

*points at gilbert baker flag* it’s right there

#ranting in tags bc that’s just how we do things here #like the other flags exist bc the rainbow flag is the GAY flag #we were called the GAY COMMUNITY for a very very long time #it was called GAY RIGHTS #and since SOME of y’all are still harping about that ‘bbbut queer is a slur!!!! wehh!!’ bullshit #the cishets don’t feel comfortable calling us the queer community #so instead they just stumble over however many letters of the alphabet soup they can remember #like i’m not really a fan of the lesbiaj flag either for a few reasons #one of which is the amount of politicking around it & how frequently lesbians apparently have no issue throwing another group under the bus #every fucking year some well meaning creator does a pride lineup & without fail someone gets mad that they didn’t use the ‘right’ flag #saying lik​e ‘oh so you could include the AsExUaL flag but not lesbian flag iteration 4.02VersionB? just say you’re lesbophobic u lesbophobe #like ok bro so 1) why don’t you send them a picture of the flag you’re talking about #2) would you even buy it if they DID have it?? #3) are you willing to source materials?? the problem with both the sunset and toothpaste flags is that their palettes are near monochrome #and with certain things it can be difficult finding enough materials that are simultaneously different enough that they look distinct #while still looking similar enough that they actually MATCH #especially if you’re trying to do the 7 stripe versions #4) did they ACTUALLY not include that flag or did they just not include the version that YOU wanted #see: used lipstick or labrys flag instead of sunset #speaking of which i ALREADY saw some poor schmuck getting yelled at for not including th toothpaste flag (they used the regular rainbow one) #like can you fucking chill #one of the other reasons i dislike both flags is the fact that they’re both for same sex attraction. again that flag already exists. #‘same sex attraction (no girls allowed)’ is really not as progressive as some of y’all seem to think #bc the whole point of having to establish female dominated areas is BECAUSE every other space is INHERENTLY male dominated #but on the other hand some lesbians act like being lesbian means they’re not gay #idk maybe it’s just the radfems being weird about it #and then there seems to be a weird trend of automatically labeling every gay woman a Lesbian (as compared to little L lesbian) #and basically assigning them a new flag that is supposedly more ‘inclusive’ than the lipstick lesbian flag #except it’s just the lipstick lesbian flag recolored and the ‘butch’ elements have more in common with the BEAR flag than any butch flag #if u wanna represent ur subculture fine. ‘gay man’ & ‘gay woman’ alone are not subcultures tho. anyway i hit tag limit so i guess i’m done.

the urge to buy a button maker and sell plural and queer flag buttons which rarely get anything physical made for them

#im mainly talking abt the aurora lesbian flag and plural pride stuff which isnt traumagenic #there are some plural buttons but its not enough u hear
