lotesseHomophobia? Sucks.
How is it that sweet, intelligent girls who make no secret of liking sex can be such bigots? How can someone who attends one of the most rigorous colleges in the States be so stupid? How can someone who is being taught to question everything be so blindly and cruelly dogmatic?
When you get drunk more nights than you don't and are cheating on your boyfriend with several people and sleeping over with an upperclassman every night you are in no position to take offence at the bisexuality of someone who has always been willing to listen to you and has never treated you with anything but kindness. BIsexuality. Not lesbianism. And Jesus fucking Christ, just because I think girls are pretty does not mean I'm going to jump the bones of every female thing I see. No, I'm not like you in that way, although you seem resolutely oriented towards the men. More the pity for them. You know I've had sex with boys. You know that I just got kissed by a boy. YOU are the one who keeps staring at MY breasts. Glass windows, honey?
Would explain a lot, wouldn't it?
God, who'd have thought that my first personal brush with homophobia would happen at a liberal arts college and not in my uber-conservative hometown?
