Are my shorts too short for a lesbian woman?

[Anonymous]

All my shorts are this length

My lesbian peers have been pressuring me for a while now, absolutely insisting that I wear longer shorts that "at least fully cover my kneecaps or longer because shorts above the knee are just too feminine for a lesbian woman."

And like... just wow. I never thought I'd see the day where my shorts were considered "too short." I've been wearing shorts this length my whole life, and they were always considered "very long women's shorts." Among-st my straight female peers they still are, actually. However, among-st my lesbian peers they are definitely noticeably shorter, as their shorts all go below their knees while mine go above.

Yes, they are indeed too short for a lesbian woman.

No, they are not too short for a lesbian woman.

You do whatever you want.

Your lesbo friends remind me of this scene in South Park in which Stan joins the Goth Kids. Listen to what the Goth Kid says about what you have to do to be a Goth.

All lesbians are butch? didn't known that, sounds funny.

[Asker]

Well a lot are, but not necessarily all lesbians, haha.

In general though lesbian women do feel more comfortable expressing their masculine side than straight women though. They're already breaking one norm by not being straight, so why not go even further and explore their masculine side further too?

I think the same applies to gay men being more comfortable expressing their feminine side than straight men.

[Berethor]

Yea it make sense, why not breaking the norm twice as a lesbian.

[Asker]

Pretty much, haha. It's also why a lot of lesbians wear their hair short, dye their hair, have tattoos, having piercings, etc... since they've already broken one social norm, it becomes easier to break more and more.

[Berethor]

Yea, then you agree that short shorts are not for lesbian women?

[Asker]

Well not necessarily. Lesbian women may be more open to wearing long shorts, but that doesn't mean they can't wear short shorts. Same goes for short hair, colorful hair, tattoos, piercings, etc. Lesbians are more open to that stuff, but that doesn't mean they can't have long hair, natural colored hair, no tattoos, no piercings, etc.

In general like any other group of people lesbians can do whatever they want, they just tend to experiment more than straight women. But there's more than one way to be a lesbian.

Michael the Goth: if you want to be one of the non-conformists, all you have to do is dress just like us, listen to the same music we do."

[Asker]

Lmfao... I'm normally an uncultured swine who doesn't know anything about anything, but I TOTALLY got that immediately because I just LOVE South Park! And the Goth Kids in general were absolutely hilarious characters!

[Berethor]

Good to hear, anyway yea you can wear whatever you want I think. :)

I wasn't given the lesbian dress code when I started dating a girl, is it available as an e-book from Amazon? 🙂

[Asker]

Haha. I like you. Pointing out the ridiculousness of stupid arbitrary rules people make for themselves in a witty satirical manner. People are often so keen on making sure they and others fit into neat little boxes and basically just become walking stereotypes of whatever group or label they want to be a part of. 😓

Like it's really simple... are you attracted to women, and you yourself identify as a woman... then you're a lesbian... that's it... lol. 😅

[DarkWinterNights]

I don’t understand what’s happening here. When did lesbians become turn of the century Puritan Catholics?

[Anonymous]

WTF? Your lesbian peers are stupid. Why would you listen to someone tell you how to dress, lesbian or straight or whatever? Fuck them and wear what you like.

[007kingifrit]

sounds like you're in a cult, those aren't friends

[HouseMoat]

Dress how you want. Don't let "others" control you

[wiltingrosepetal]

They're the perfect length

[wiltingrosepetal]

Also, being a girl in red should be the perfect indicator that you listen to girl in red

[Asker]

Thanks, haha. Hearing that makes me happy. I'm biased, but I think they're the perfect length too, lol. Any shorter would be too short, any longer would be too long.

They're short enough to show some skin and make me feel cooler, but also long enough to keep my upper legs from being sunburned and to have decent sized pockets. :)

And ah... I don't really keep up with anything, so I actually didn't know who you were talking about before Googling, but I'm glad I have a music recommendation to listen to now. She does seem interesting. ^_^

[wiltingrosepetal]

Girl in Red is pretty much the emperor of lesbians lmao, so 'do you listen to girl in red' is a way of asking if you're gay.
Her straightest lyrics include:
'You stupid bitch, can't you see, the perfect one for you is me' and 'oh Hannah, I wanna kiss you until I lose my breath'.

She's a queen

[Asker]

Ah... that's good to know, haha. Thanks. From those lyrics alone I can tell she's awesome and indeed a queen.

Not gonna lie, I'm extremely out of touch in general and most likely wouldn't know that on my own, lol. Hell, most of the time I don't even feel like I belong on this planet. Like I'm literally just an alien pretending to be human. 😅😂

[RedInnocent68]

No. Lesbian or not. That’s ridiculous.

[jahaims]

Short length and sexual preferences aren't related

[Wise4myage]

No, don't be silly.

[Asker]

Thanks, haha. In this case it would be my lesbian peers who are silly. :)

[Wise4myage]

Your welcome.

It's old school
Let it make sense
