Something that gets me mad every time I think about it is the fact that men will get turned on by the simple fact of two women being on a date. For the straights reading this, let me give you an example. Over the summer I was going out with a girl who I was falling for fast. I was so excited to have someone to flirt with in the corner of a party for the first time in forever, so of course I brought her to my friend’s birthday. Tequila was passed around and by all circumstances we were acting as two people drunk on a date would act. So naturally we were making out on the couch. Now if this was a hetero couple no one would bat an eye. Maybe someone would tell us to get a room. But because one of PornHub’s top search phrases is lesbians, we were instead stared at by a sleazy NYU business student who asked “can I join in?”. And of course, in finance bro fashion he proceeded to flirt with my date. Why can’t men understand that not everything is about them? I don’t kiss girls as a way to turn men on, I do it because I’m fucking gay.
