Meghan Loves Lesbians (???) with Meghan Rienks

[@tori5598]

she's confused but she's got the spirit

[@lufarias13]

you guys should seriously consider featuring Alayna Joy!!!

[@ihatemickiegee]

especially now!

[@silversalem4331]

No hate to meghan, she's really funny and is obviously trying to relate with her heart in the right place... but I really wanna see the footage of jack & amy talking about this convo after meghan hung up oop lol

[@jasminexbishop]

i know this show is supposed to have straight guests and that was originally the whole entire point, but i just love the episodes with elle/alexis/rebecca/cammie SO much more. this one had so many awkward pauses and idk why meghan felt the need to prove how much she just ~loves gay people~ like they’re entertainment for her

[@itsgivingbougie]

jasmine bishop she genuinely does and is an active ally. If you knew her, you’d know. Take a look at her twitter if you want an idea of what she’s like and what she believes in.

[@jasminexbishop]

Anthony i have actually known of meghan for quite a while and actively watched her on clever, but she can be perceived quite badly in this podcast & needs to learn how to phrase her support in a way that doesn’t feel condescending or fetishised.

[@liviameridi9482]

I agree, I had a look at her Twitter after the podcast and she really seems keen to be an ally, she just needs to educate herself a bit more about queer culture and reflect about what she says

[@asdfhun]

I believe the akward pauses had nothing to do with her, it was because they were in three different locations, could barely see eachother on a tiny screen, they've probably never met in person, so it's obvious they have a different dynamic than with their long time friends. Also they had to deal with the skype/zoom lag too (count how many times Amy and Jack starts to speak at the same time). And not to thow him under the bus, but almost all the akward pauses were induced by Jack, he started to say something (so Amy didn't) then he stopped. In a group conversation you don't take a big breath and raise the mic to your mouth (signalling to everyone else that you have something to say), when you actually don't know what to say/how to continue, resulting an akward silence.

[@khaidarbekezhanov4735]

Invite chris klemens or Andrew lowe!!!!!

[@ayydubs987]

amy & chris don't follow each other on their socials anymore :/

[@ayydubs987]

Haleigh right... i have no clue what happened but i noticed it right after they stopped living together 🤭

[@jodyclaudine5106]

I hate it when possible future podcast guests are ruled out coz of tea that happened

[@lauren3449]

Haleigh amy used to live with chris and andrew. I dont think theres any deep tea, if youve ever lived with anyone, it can just cause a deep rooted hatred of the way people act. I think they will get over it in a few years. Amy said there was no hard feelings, she was just meant to live alone. I think it was because they were too messy, and chris made it all smell like weed 24/7 (which is rude). Just roommate tea.

[@badkarma3828]

In my opinion there were no bad intensions here but the whole ~"i wish i was gay", "my boyfriend would love that"~ was so cringy to me. Keep in mind that we don't all come from such accepting places (like LA) so it's kinda awkward and ignorant when srtaight ppl talk like that

[@helenagomes9963]

amy u look so gorgeus on this episode!! Literally glowing

[@liviameridi9482]

I find lots of people finding her attractive (and I think she is) so I wonder why she always says she 's alone and nobody wants her

[@Andrew-jx1wz]

I think this seems awkward because of the distance so it's hard to tell when to talk. But other than that, this is hilarious AF! Love it

[@alexrae0305]

i feel like i could feel y'all cringing through the screen at some points lmfaooo

[@alexrae0305]

straight people saying they wish they were gay and/or they're obsessed w gay ppl has me like 🤢🤢🤢

[@liviameridi9482]

This episode has inspired me to write a list of things I don't like hearing people say about or to gay people: -"I love gay people": sure, gay people are one entity, all the same and we do not have individual identities whatsover. -"I wished I was gay" 11:10 : ........... ........... .......... STRAIGHT PRIVILEDGEEEEEEE!!!! -"I feel bad for you, miserable gay person, because I have power on you when I kiss you" 11:37 : if you are a girl and (used to) like kissing girls, spare your pity as you are not so 100% straight m'am -"my boyfriend would love it if I fell for a girl" 12:01 : it's so cool when people sexualize lesbians and invalidate our relationships so we can steal all the girls we want

[@hellaur62]

i wrote a similar list and i dmed her and she apologized (its on her twitter) but still dont know how i feel about it since she still said those things and said a few of them before

[@liviameridi9482]

I am sure she meant no harm at all, but it s good to point these things out to her and to the people that are involuntarily harming the lgbtq+ community

[@madtingz2288]

I let all of it pass until she said her boyfriend would love it if she got a girl... oh hell no get rid of him, I hate how the sexualisation of lesbians is still allowed like that.

[@liviameridi9482]

@@madtingz2288 yeah! I was shocked! as if lesbian relationships were not real relationships but just game shows for the enjoyment of straight guys

[@hellaur62]

Goodlies exactly and i mentioned that in my dm cause she said it before on her own podcast but she didnt address it,,, maybe cause there were alot of points idk

[@SebzDevYT]

OMG!!!! YAAASSSSS. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ALL MY LIFE!!!!!!!

[@nikalive1]

Meghan posted an apology and explanation on her Twitter for all of those who may be cringing lol

[@KaylieJane]

I do not see it on her twitter

[@nikalive1]

Kay twitter.com/meghanrienks/status/1262800068676947969?s=21

[@nikalive1]

Kay - it’s from a couple days ago!

[@myapope1480]

I actually reallyyy loved this episode and didnt find it cringe at all? could be because i have been watching her since forever but i love meghans energy!

[@sg5732]

Same I watch her channel so it's just all 3 of my girlies together. But I get how she might come off if someone doesn't know of her.

[@itsgivingbougie]

She’s also such a crazy strong ally for all minorities. She’s always raising her voice for us.

[@hellaur62]

ive been watching her since 2016 and its still shitty the way she talked about us? like its not about the energy at all its what shes saying

[@myapope1480]

Heidi - yeah but also what she was saying was definitely encouraged by jack and amy

[@liviameridi9482]

To me it seems Amy and Jack just laugh nervously in disbelief at what she says... Notice jack's reactions 11:47 12:03

[@elliottluke6020]

Yikes really didn’t expect her to be that weird about gay ppl

[@hellaur62]

right??

[@elliottluke6020]

Heidi - it’s a little gross tbh

[@Mikaylap713]

It’s not that deep guys. Obviously these ppl are best friends or anything so they’re trying really hard to connect and yeah it can come off awkward or cringy sometimes. It’s not all Meghan or the hosts, this literally happens to everyone.

[@Mikaylap713]

Aren’t***

[@manon1688]

Having a beer while watching their podcast : best time of the day

[@wavydezy]

amy needs to watch the L word and make a reaction series on it because i need to know how she feels about tina.. and jenny

[@manon1688]

she's really pretty (am I talking about Amy, Meghan or Jack? You'll never know)

[@spamacct2547]

xoxo gossip girl

[@jorad4396]

Love Meghan and love the audio quality !

[@jazzyjane6508]

My heart jumped when I saw Meghan on the timeline. I love her so much . I know people are saying that the energy is off but that’s because you don’t really know her . Meghan is raw and authentic . She’s just being herself and you can see that she really wants to be friends with Amy and jack .

[@user-le5xu5je3s]

the way she speaks reminds me of shoshanna from girls.. like calm down lmfao.

[@thecassyscorner]

THIS TITLE LMAO YALL ARE ALL MY FAVOURITES

[@noellecandler7258]

I loved this episode! I feel like y'all vibed 👀

[@jackstorer2850]

Actually lived for Meghan this episode iconic ❤️❤️

[@someoneelse7629]

I'm even worse, I'm a totally straight middleaged man, and I follow all the LA-lesbians, and some others too (Rose&Rosie, Paige&Holly and Karin&Skyler (I know K&S live in LA, but they thont collaborate with the others) I do not sexualise them at all (so you don't need to comment that) They are just a fun bunch, and there is always something going on (either drama or something fun)

[@crisp854]

this is so wholesome. you are a very welcome ally!

[@denizalgazi]

It's called being a lesbro (or lesmo if you are a gay male). Used to be called d¥ke daddies! Show your real lesbro cred by attending The Dinah as VIP with your entourage of girlie girls!

[@thecassyscorner]

I AM SO EXCITED TO LISTEN TO THIS

[@Ryujenini]

I feel like I'm the only one that actually likes Meghan

[@loganbaker7784]

I loooove Meghan

[@theyJC]

It would be weird if there wasn’t some awkward vibes with a leo and two water signs lol also these virtual recordings just generally have more awkward pauses and what not but definitely makes it feel more cringey

[@kelseyontheinternet]

Moon Pisces club!!! Whoop whooooop!! 🙌🏻✨🌙

[@freesponges5645]

I always love every episode of dating straight and enjoy meeting the different guests they have. But the way she kept cutting them both off was straight up rude

[@celina5774]

You are wonderful people💗

[@GeneralRania]

I love her. I'm going to subscribe to her.

[@jimenatorres6046]

Amy and Jack, the word you were both looking for for women who are drag queens is either hyper queens or bio queens, though the latter isn't used by everyone because some feel it excludes trans and non-binary people :) I'm actually a woman who does drag, and I honestly just like the term "drag queen", because theres no difference between us and our cis male counterparts 🙈 Drag has evolved so much and it's disappointing to see shows like drag race only represent one type of queen when local drag scenes are filled with talent across the gender spectrum ☺️ If youre still confused on what a hyperqueen or female drag queen looks like in drag, and what exactly we do, you're more than welcome to check out my IG, @hermenathekween 💜

[@kaylahajdasz2725]

AMY! HOW HAVEN’T YOU SEEN THE L WORD!!! 😂😂🥵 must watch! (The OG)

[@dirtyangel9437]

Lol this episode was funny af

[@MarvinTheMusicMan]

"Dinglehopper" should be in the dictionary 🤣🤣

[@TheBubbleRed]

Yeah..this was a bit off but it was a nice listen!

[@33cupcakecutie]

Some moments of what Meghan was saying made me cringe

[@liviameridi9482]

yeah .... I m sure it's not like that but she sounded like gay people are her fetish

[@madtingz2288]

@@liviameridi9482 I'm sure she doesn't mean any harm with it but it does seem that way

[@ryla157]

honestly I didn’t think it was cringe. I’ve met people way worse so🤔 she just seems like someome who supports the community

[@liviameridi9482]

@@ryla157 yeah of course she is not homophobic nor anything, and her intentions are obviously good, but I feel she was not realising exactly the more subtle implications of what she was saying sometimes...like involuntarily stereotyping/fetishizing gay people, indirectly denying the marginalization oppressing us worldwide (by saying she wished she was gay), sexualizing lesbians, and showing that kind of pity that might rather reinforce power unbalances....these kinds of attitudes towards marginalized communities are quite tricky usually, and I feel it is always important to point them out in order to help our allies support us in the best way possible

[@ryla157]

Livia Meridi I can see where you’re coming from now, thanks for explaining

[@ismaelharouna6806]

Jack it was more like a pamphlet amy is just roastin

[@courtneydorothyjane2265]

You should have Dan Owen on the podcast to read your Zodiacs!

[@mcs3119]

Ohhh that was cringy af

[@vendinillab6134]

People need to stop complaining about it being awkward. We’re use to them having there friends on! It’s obviously going to be different when it’s not a close friend...

[@ayydubs987]

i think people also forget that they're on the phone & not in person...? there's a little bit of a lag

[@33cupcakecutie]

The number of likes on this comment is the number of times Meghan says "for sure"

[@vendinillab6134]

Wow this crossover was so unexpected but so needed!!!

[@danihircock7335]

this should be a gay podcast

[@hannahdowling6408]

I feel like she was trying wayyy to hard to not be offensive

[@sg5732]

Well someone was still offended and she apologized (genuinely) on twitter. I do think she was very adamant about clarifying things when something was mentioned that could seem problematic/a behaviour from when she was in high school that has been unlearned. But someone could still take it differently.

[@Kimchi__pussyyy]

straight people tend to do that alot lolololololol

[@jdoitt96]

this girl gives me a headache

[@jacobaeden]

the baby party is funny tho because it's sex not gender

[@muchgum9637]

get on shannon!!!!

[@samcruz9521]

Please have the lovely Rebecca Black again please you beautiful people ❤

[@eb4304]

Been watching dating straight since the beginning (most of them at least twice) but god this is the worst guest ever Sorry jack and Amy luv u

[@aJxxw]

LOL i viibe with this chick, meghan seems so cool. I'm a leo as well. xD
