I find it both hilarious and concerning how many (lesbian) woman fail the Bechdel test.

I was a part of an all people-of-color improv group for a little while, and somehow we always ended up talking about white people.

One day I had to ask, "Hey can we stop complaining about white people and maybe do some jokes celebrating us and our experiences instead?"

Any particular reason? Believe it or not, my cishet friends and I don’t sit around talking about queer people doing things we assume to be markers of queerness

Yeah, that checks out. Sounds exhausting.

u/BiDude1219 16h ago

i mean that doesn't mean it's okay to generalize every cishet person as a bigot. most bigots may be cishet but it doesn't go the other way.

still you're making it sound like yall complain about cishet people for bigotry, when imo it's better to just complain about bigots in general. don't wanna feed the "us vs them" position.

u/DrainianDream 16h ago

I don't think venting about a recent encounter with bigotry to your friends is at all generalizing and it's really weird to tone police those conversations when you aren't even there to know what exactly is being said

u/BiDude1219 16h ago

it's different to do that than to say "cis people suck because i had a bad encounter with one (1) of them" and i'm just asking which one they're talking about because i see a lotta people on reddit doing that generalization.

or maybe interacting with 4tran has made me paranoid

no the fuck i'm not, i'm literally a trans woman myself, i just don't think hating on an entire demographic is justified just because a bunch of assholes belong to said demographic. it only fuels pointless gender war bullshit that harms everyone involved.

u/DrainianDream 15h ago

Okay, but you are generalizing by assuming trans people venting about a specific bigoted incident they JUST experienced must mean they're hating on cishet people as a whole.
