We don’t think this ended up being instance of escalation by other people, and I also don’t think other people’s escalation would justify the accusations you add forth about lesbian erasure and lesbophobia in specific. Laura R. ended up being diplomatic. Queer Woman wasn’t aggressive.
They simply disagreed with you. Searching on the commentary makes me personally using the summary that you will be the only who escalated the tone with this conversation. In very first remark you write “All females are bisexual by default?” which hit me as reasonably hyperbolic. You have got extrapolated the possibly erroneous recognition of the one homosexual character to signify the list’s authors think each queer women can be bisexual by default. That’s super defensive and unnecessary. And yes, it is obnoxious to choose this battle during bi exposure week also to allow it to be truly a battle. You may be the main one who may have both accused Autostraddle along with other commenters of lesbian erasure/lesbophobia AND assumed that they’re accusing you of biphobia in change, but whom called you biphobic? Offered your reviews about bi fandoms people that are attacking we wonder if perhaps you’ve carried within the power off their fandom fights right into a context where it does not use.
We don’t assume that a lesbian wouldn’t are having issues with bi erasure because We myself have always been a lesbian who may have a issue with bi erasure. But if you can point to comments you’ve made here in which you object to bi erasure as aggressively and dramatically as this alleged case of lesbian erasure because you point the finger at bisexuals by singling out their fandoms for bad behaviour, that makes me wonder.
you are invited to show me personally wrong by giving screenshots of the time whenever state, someone utilized вЂlesbian’ to spell it out Evan Rachel Wood’s fashion feeling and also you had been this indignant and protective about bi erasure.
We along with other those who called out of the addition of Waverly with this list ended up being literally called shitty by the individual you describe as diplomatic, that has been the point whenever I stopped being good. Funny how you’re OK with this but need as any proof from me an evidence of my good will, expecting I’ll spend hours looking for and making screenshots of my words and upload it to some server just so you would say it doesn’t matter anyway because you don’t see it. In the same way being called that is“shitty “diplomatic behavior” in this alt truth.
And that’s exactly just just what angers me personally the essential concerning this situation. Gaslighting and standards that are double. Calling away detailing as bisexual the type who’s very likely homosexual that way either just like name calling is diplomatic) and we shouldn’t have any problem because “who’s harmed by that” as she even used the word to describe herself is an attack on bisexual people now (that’s why I mentioned insinuation of biphobia by the way, but of course I bet you didn’t see it. Then your description this this article might be harmful because lesbian exposure is with in really state that is bad of contributes to accusation that speaking about lesbians is hi jacking bi exposure week. You actually don’t see any issue for the reason that?
And another of the very disingenuous arguments, we you will need to forbid bi fans from seeing Wav as bi because a write-up on a famous site concentrated at queer ladies is simply the identical to a viewpoint of a fan! Except it is perhaps maybe not. When individuals see it they’ll get the feeling so it’s already formal. Which often can lead to huge strain on the article writers and showrunners to stick to that even if it is maybe not whatever they planned, or they’ll face the fan wrath. And that’s really shitty.
Because of enough time you’re taking to argue that it isn’t a grudge carried over from a bi/lesbian fandom war but actually a basic argument from an individual who is reasonable to all the, i believe it is significantly more than fair for me personally to inquire of one to straight straight back that claim up. You don’t require a screenshot, simply copy/paste something it’s from accusatory you’ve written re:bisexual erasure and link to the article.
