Raw Thoughts: Gay/Lesbian Confusion???
Ni Hao!
Ok here we go, (Note: This blog is uncut, unedited. So you will see my entire thought process play out until I reach my final conclusion. No revisions except for spelling and grammar. ) Welcome to the first edition of…
Raw Thoughts
I’ll start by saying your personal preferences are your choice and yours alone. I am not here to judge anyone. However, I do have one little I guess pet peeve so to speak when it comes to gay/lesbians and its mostly with the girls that I see this.
So the point of being gay is to have two people of the same sex. Guy and Guy. Girl and Girl. 2 men or 2 women. Right? Then tell me why I often see lesbian couples in which you have the “girl” and the “guy/girl” or the girl that looks like a guy. If you’re a lesbian you like girls. If there’s a need for masculinity then you obviously like men too. So should I think of these couples as bi-sexual individuals? Folks, you’re confusing me!
And Dudes,
This sissy stuff needs to stop! That to me kills the entire definition of gay. Maybe I’m linking Masculinity/Femininity and Sex to tightly together. Because if I think gay, then I think a guy that is attracted to Men. This also to me constitutes attraction to masculinity NOT femininity. Right?? If you’re attracted to femininity then you like females.
Someone explain this to me…
Ok I’ll take another wack at it..
So a Lesbian female is attracted to females therefore she possess masculine traits. Ok this can explain the want to look male. So what’s the excuse for the girly lesbian?
Same thing with the guys, Gay man likes men and possess feminine traits so this can explain acting like a girl, but…… well ok maybe the guys get it because you often see both men acting feminine.
Yea um ladies I think it would make more sense if both parties looked like men. The girl/guy girl look is killing me. One of yall lying!
Well again this by far is not an attack on the Gay/Lesbian Community. I’m just trying to understand. Often times topics are so sensitive that people are afraid to talk about them, but without gaining understanding of each other how can we get alone. This goes for anything, Race, Creed, Religion, Sex.

Interesting topic!! If I may add my own thoughts on the matter: I think that the relative levels of masculinity or femininity is just like another facet of a person and that their partner responds to that. In any couple – straight or gay – there’s always a more feminine partner to counterbalance the more masculine partner. The difference in masculinity/femininity is just like the difference in who’s messier, who’s louder, who’s wilder, who’s more responsible… Whatever trait we look at between a couple, one partner will be more of certain things than the other. The combination of masculinity or femininity, as well as the rest of the person’s personality, is what made them right for their partner. In same-sex couples, I think we just notice it more because we ‘expect’ them to be ‘the same’ because they are both the same sex. Just my two cents…
Thanks for your comment… I agree with you in that their is a balance between masculinity and femininity. However, when it comes to same-sex couples for this need to still be present baffles me. I understand it and disagree with it at the same time… lol
