I came across this recently and thought it was a super interesting and thorough examination of "the closet" or "coming out" of it.

๐Ÿซค Yeah... "I don't want to be out. I just want to be"

Lol, I gave up on that shit when I realised how pointless it was, I'm not having sex anyway.

Aww sorry to hear that. Maybe you can wear a pin or necklace with something that may go unnoticed by straights but recognizable to lesbians?

Does that work? I've heard people explain it as "I need to use a keyboard", or at most call it their "working fingers", independently of their orientation.

Sick = good or sick = bad?

[โ€“] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.fmhy.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sick = very good, rad as hell even

That was not my initial reading, but then I saw the username and figure this was more likely!
