Isn’t that just homophobia? Why would the queer community be bad at calling that out

lesbophobia includes equating all lesbians to “mean radfem biphobic terfs”, pushing corrective rape rhetoric with the lesbians can sleep with men and the sexuality is fluid bs, and calling lesbians male centered for ever talking about our annoyance with men btw

Given your other comment, I’m surprised you can’t see where I’m coming from. Initially it was just a guess based on how that OP couldn’t stand getting called out

Oh don’t worry, I’m sure someone else will come along and get into it with you later. I’m about to be busy, so here’s just a couple highlights; No one is equating all lesbians to TERFs (if you’re being called a terf, there’s maybe a reason) “Sexuality is (rather, “can be”) fluid” is both true and NOT “collective rape rhetoric”

1. people have started using lesbian radfem and terf interchangeably or assume all lesbians are biphobic, I have seen this first hand so u cant tell me its nobody 😭 2. Alot of multisexual people do push the “sexuality is fluid” notion that wether they realize it or not does contribute to rape rhetoric as it also pushes that lesbians can potentially find the right man we are mostly agreeing idk why u coming at me with such a negative attitude

its better so say “sexuality can be fluid” bc for lesbians it is not and if they find a man somewhere in life they were never lesbian

I don’t see hardly anyone saying any of this other than the biphobia and that’s specifically calling out the lesbians that are biphobic

Lesbophobia is a specific form of homophobia that is specific to lesbians. Like an example would be d¥ke breaking

Sexuality is fluid is a definitive statement that is apart of rape culture. Sexuality CAN be fluid. It is NOT inherently fluid. It implies a lesbian can find the “right man” at any time, invalidating us.

Because i will never wake up and “find the right man”. My sexuality is static and always has and will be. Implying otherwise is rape culture and the type of shit some 1950s homophobe would say. That my lesbianism is “just a phase” and not a static identity and existence.

Lesbophobia IS homophobia by definition and it’s especially redundant when all of the examples aren’t specific to lesbians. And to say that the queer community has trouble calling it out is false. If you have any proof to the contrary then I’m all ears.

misogyny IS sexism, but while men do sometimes face things like gender-based price gauging, we still use it as an example for misogyny because it disproportionately impacts women. would love to hear how #5's example of "dÿke breaking" isn't disproportionately impacting lesbians?

D¥ke breaking. The fact that when you look lesbian up on reddit all that comes up is porn. The over sexualization of lesbian relationships.

DŸke breaking also applies to bi women, and is a form of corrective r@pe which isn’t exclusive to lesbians. Those other two apply to everyone else too.

D¥ke breaking doesn’t happen to bi women bc for d¥ke breaking to occur the person can’t be attracted to men.

D breaking is exclusive to lesbians and to suggest it isn’t is really insidious. D breaking exists because those women do not experience ANY attraction to men. Corrective rape would be the term. Not d*ke breaking.
