Yeah, this.


I’m a queer woman who stopped trying to get dates at gay bars because of Katy Perry and straight women.


See, I’d found this girl I liked at a gay bar. She was cute, she was funny, I bought her a drink, we danced, I kissed her, I asked for her phone number–


–and she said “what, you think I’m some kind of fag?”


Katy Perry normalized the whole “kissing girls ‘just to try it’” thing, and I got harassed in what was supposed to be my safe space as a result.


And to make matters worse?


When I first talked about it here on Tumblr many years ago, I was accused by a bunch of straight girls of being predatory because I felt it wasn’t fair of her to do this. Note that my problem wasn’t with her not giving me her phone number–it was with suddenly being called a fag in a place where that kind of language isn’t okay.


So yeah, fuck straight people in queer spaces who decided to come there for their own entertainment rather than to be good allies to the community.

we arent a fucking zoo for straight people to gawk at
