I know that it’s an awful and homophobic slur but it made me feel weirdly validated to be called a slur that’s usually only used on women (lesbians). I don’t know, it’s weird. Part of me is upset that they called me a homophobic slur but a part of me is also euphoric for being referred to, even indirectly as a woman. Does anyone else relate to this experience?
(By the way I’m a transfem lesbian.)
A few months I was walking, possibly jaywalking, and someone shouted “BITCH!” out of their car window as they passed me. That was probably the only time I’ve ever passed for cis.
