Gender Wars playing cards by Nina Paley
In her own words: "Based-as-fuck TERF HOST" of Heterodorx.com "...that badass chick with a web comic who's a free software activist" Car Exclusionary Radical Bicyclist. Recovering heterosexual. Preferred pronouns: English.
I do not stand to profit in any way from sales. I simply saw this and found it amusing, in the sense that you have to have humor to deal with this clown situation.
You don’t get to erase me just because you don’t like that I won’t touch you. Take your homophobia elsewhere.
Why does "lesbian" being a p*rn category mean it's ok for bisexual women to have two words for themselves? Isn't "bi" also a category? So should it be ok for heterosexual women to call themselves bi because they are also attracted to men?
The OP says the term is useless because of p*rn so I guess they're ok with two types of marginalized women being degraded.

Yup, those two things have no logical correlation to one another. I’m guessing though he is saying that the word lesbian gets used in porn to refer to women who aren’t lesbians so why should it matter if the term is co-opted further? Lesbians are already being shit on so what’s a little more?
But the issue isn’t about bisexual women having two words, it’s the calling for the colonization of lesbianism by bisexuals, effectively leaving no word solely for lesbians….

That's what I meant since if the word lesbian can be used by women that are attracted to men also it makes the word mean bisexual as well because lesbians by default can't share any word that includes attraction to men. Sorry could've been more clear on that. I type too fast for my own good.
I guess I'll call them woke-bisexuals making up words like omni or polysexual, call themselves queer even homosexual because they're SSA too so it's fine, and use the word 'gay' as an umbrella term but I have yet to see them use 'straight' in a similar manner. Which why not? They do it with gay men and lesbians, why not also with heterosexuals? It comes across like they have more respect for straight people or they view heterosexuality as concrete and real but homosexuality is more of a concept to them. At least be consistent with colonizing sexual orientations.
Men and women who date TIMs also claim to be lesbians
The left has made the word ‘lesbian’ meaningless
The right just thinks they are women who hate men.
Assailed on all sides
As if real lesbians haven’t been through enough
Hmmm well... If those are our multiple choices, then I guess it's sayonara to "trans women", who now get to be tr💥nnys and sh🌚males again 🤷🏾♀️
(BTW mostly off-topic but i'm realizing that TIFs are so overlooked/ignored that i don't even think anyone has bothered to invent a slur for them? Wow....)

Works for me, along with the other t- word I don’t even think rates as a slur (didn’t they make it up themselves from “trans loon”?)
Ironic that it’s the name of a town in Scotland. Wonder if Sturgeon &co will make the town change its name so as not to offend TIMs?
Ahah i do remember seeing that there's a town called tr00n.
Btw—if you're typing comments into a Disqus interface (or other such thing, with automated censoring of certain words) and you want to type a banned word with the letter 'o' anywhere in it, you can switch to a Greek or Russian Keyboard and just type one or more of the identical-looking 'o' character—which, apparently, registers as an altogether different entity. The resulting word made of mashed-up Roman and Greek/Cyrillic letters won't be caught by any censoring filters, and if you copypaste it into google you'll get zero search hits lol.
Thanks, but I’m only mentioning these creeps here, I don’t use any other sites where they enter the conversation at all, mercifully.
Ahah yeah. I think Disqus comments even auto-mod words like "asshole" though

I've seen the straight/bi TIFs be called fujoshis since they often are. There's also "po*ners" which I think is newish
FYI, TIMs invented the tr..ny slur. It wasn't a slur originally.
If we're going to start defining our language, or culture with porn as the jumping off point, then may the planet just get hit by a gamma ray burst and be done with it already.
That's such a weird argument. I guess we should just adapt our language to porn categories?
Thanks for your input Jake
It’s really ok to just say you’re bi lol. There’s basically no spaces outside ovarit where lesbians have exclusive access to anyway. Like what are you hoping to accomplish by making lesbian an umbrella term
Ikr. I just can’t stand the inaccuracy of it.
This stupid movement is all about taking words with actual definitions and meanings and just ...ruining them, just mangling language until it loses its meaning.
I’m bi, why would I want to call myself something I’m not?
If it becomes an "umbrella term" then male rapists think they could try to slip under that umbrella
Ohp, there it is! As if they need more help with that
