I’m a feminine lesbian and I’ve always been told “you don’t look like a lesbian”. So, when I saw the most beautiful woman walk into this party I was at, I approached her. Granted this was after having some drinks and my confidence peaked. Totally thought I was out of her league. Now, she’s my wife 😊 together for 8 years and married for 3.

On the subject of Twilight having no-premarital-sex-except-it's-vampires, the author is literally a mormon and has lots of purity culture stuff in her book so Ashley was 100% right. They even additionally have the actual no-premarital-sex because Edward is "old fashioned" and "wants to do things right".

As someone who grew up extremely poor, I get Mak’s stance on it feeling wrong to spend money, even if you have it. It’s been a multi-year long process and I’m still figuring my own issues out but life is SO much better now that I’m learning how to actually spend money in a healthy way. Like Ashley said, there’s lot of equations and budgeting tools to help figure out what’s reasonable to spend. But budgeting joy for yourself is so so important too

Life is NOW, and it’s trusting yourself & trusting that money is always there & always will be replaced & abundance is in MY control, & a lot hasn’t changed except for my mindset; it’s the trust in myself and love & value I put into myself & my time on earth.

The whole conversation with Mak about moving felt like such a family conversation. I recently moved to somewhere much nicer, and although it's way more expensive, it's worth it. I wouldn't underestimate the impact that quality of life and having important experiences has on future income.

Mak's situation is so relevant to me. My job is remote and let's me live anywhere in the US, so I just moved to a much higher cost of living area to be around my friends who accept me in all my queerness. And it hurts that in 2 or 3 years I could afford a nice house by my family and here it will be forever. But this podcast reminded me that I moved because I'm much happier around friends and people that accept me.

Happy for u!!! I also tune into Ashley's other podcast and there is a "we're having gay sex" discord so it could be a good online queer community in the meantime. It often comes up ab how to find irl ppl and I think researching any possible queer activities in ur location (bars, etc)..and also just kinda going out and doing what you like to do you may run into like minded ppl and maybe some of them might also be queer. Also biphobia is a bitch but if it happens to come up take it as a sign to not fw whoever has those wrong views. Don't let fear/anxiety ab running into biphobia keep u from living ur best life in ur truth tho 🙏🏽

Maybe something that would help Mak would be a middle-ground? Maybe say, "I'm going to move out there by a certain date" but set a goal of how much to put into savings/investments by then. That way Mak can move out there and have the desired lifestyle and experiences but within a financial plan/space they feel comfortable with.

Love this. Without getting sappy, the queer imposter sydrome ended for me when I stopped trying to inhabit identities which would "make me gay enough" but felt wrong (e.g.: not true to who I really was, and thus causing this loop of "why am I not gay enough to make this work???") and returned home to my own identity which was Gay Enough all along.

I might just take mine out after hearing Alayna's pov. Looking at other comments I also never stopped to think that maybe it wasn't pleasant and people were just not confident enough to tell me so. 💜 Much love to you all!!

I mean to be fair it’s really rude/uncomfortable socially to tell another person what to do with their body. Your body your choice. So I wouldn’t be surprised if maybe it was unpleasant but never expressed. I personally wouldn’t even allow it down there & I really don’t like oral piercings even for kissing (I’ve tried that & that was enough )

Dear Mak - usually when I'm having that much resistance to something that I REALLY want, it's my ego blocking me. It's fear and anxiety for a big life change - but a really big nice house in Springfield, doesn't matter if it's empty when all your friends and loved ones are in a different city. You can ALWAYS make more money. You're 23 - you're going to regret not doing the things you really wanted to do when you get older, and will end up resenting whatever kept you there. I'm team Move Mak to LA! Life your life, my friend, you only get one!

Mak talking about her aesthetic attraction to a dude makes me feel so much better, like okay, I'm not the only one. I've heard people frame aesthetic attraction as "look at this landscape painting, you might like it but you don't want to have sex with it", which is TOTALLY not an accurate description of the kind of attraction I have towards certain men. Like, I definitely don't like the way they look in the same way I might light a landscape lol. But have sex with them? Still absolutely not.

for me, a big part of my queer imposter syndrome was feeling like i was somehow wrong about my sexuality, or lying to myself. one of the things that helped me get over that was realizing that i couldnt be wrong about my own feelings. it sounds obvious, but part of me was convinced that i somehow had tricked myself into being gay, i guess, and so being able to validate all my own feelings was ultimately what helped me get over the imposter syndrome the most. also, like alayna said, finding a good queer community that will validate you helps a ton in being able to validate yourself and be comfortable in your own queerness

I have had a tongue ring for 14 years. I have engaged many times in oral. I have a very long tongue so the ring has never been a hinder. I can do all the normal moves. I have found it to be helpful if someone is extra sensitive to use it on the outer lips and push in with it. I have also used it when people are not super sensitive and want something a little rougher.

My first girlfriend ever had one and she was inexperienced with lesbian sex until we got together. It was not a fun experience for me to have the piercing down there, it did get caught all the time so it was painful. It never occured to any of us to take it out just for the night. My current girlfriend also has a piercing but she would always take it out in order to up her game and not limit her movements. I guess kissing can be very arousing with one of the two having a tongue piercing or using it while stimulating other area's of the female body. But other than that I highly prefer a tongue without a piece of metal attached to it!

Ive always been saddened by the part of the lesbian community thats so small minded and conservative because for me, it was a safe place to be myself before i knew who myself was:) Tho i dont identify as a lesbian anymore, theres still a part of me that feels tied to the community becuase (tho i identify as straight) i dont feel as tho i belong in the straight community. Im a man with a vagina who loves my partner with a vagina, it feels more in line with my sexual experiences. So again, thank you for your support of the entire spectrum of queerness, in sexuality and gender:)

I loved it so much and had it for 5 ish years but it got to a point where I was worried about the damage I was doing to my teeth from accidentally biting it. It just wasn't worth it to keep it in long term.

I felt less like an imposter when I figured out what type of presentation felt like me. In the beginning, I was conflicted about the "feminine" things I like, like makeup and having longer hair, and felt I was obligated to present more masculine if I wanted people to take me coming out as non-binary seriously. With my features and figure, it's extremely unlikely that people will call me anything other than she/her no matter how I dress, so I stopped worrying about it. It doesn't matter if I don't "look" non-binary- whatever that means- it doesn't change the fact that I am.

@Makingemi: I'm in my 40s and I just started having regrets over not going to places a few years ago. It's not really an issue of money: once I reached a certain age, I just no longer had the same amount of time and energy to travel and live elsewhere as before. There's a whole lot of places I wanted to explore in more detail than just a quick tour; I might still get to see some of them, but others are forever out of my reach. Finances are important, sure; but if you feel that L.A. might make you happy, that it might be a good and self-affirming place to spend some of your life at, I advise you to go do it while you can, because our ability to experience many facets of life constantly diminishes with age. On another note, I doubt this is the case, but wouldn't it be hilarious if the whole "tongue piercings are good for oral sex" idea turned out to all come from that one throwaway line in Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, which the entire lesbian world took far too seriously?

I feel like Mak has reasons to go to LA, but I did the save up thing and I’m now moving to the place I want to be and bought the house I love because of waiting… and now I’m going to be on a tight budget but it’s worth it because I have the house. I’m only 24 though so I’m probably in a similar mindset to Mak because of that. I feel like the icks were turn offs and genuine reasons to be put off people. A major ick of mine is the way some women interact with/strokes my dog, I can’t put my finger on it but it’s always somehow so specific😂 also thank you for the vegan ice cream ❤

I posted this on the WHGS video, but honestly I never even knew tongue rings were considered gay culture. When I got mine 20 years ago, it was definitely a straight thing. In fact, it was seen as something where if you had it, you definitely have sex with guys. A lot of girls in my school who were more opening sleeping with guys had them, so it almost became this idea where if you got one, you'd fit in with the older 'cool girls'. I still have mine, but I mostly use it as a fidget tool for my ADHD, so even though I am in a long term straight relationship, I don't keep it for that reason, I keep it for me. I will say guys definitely enjoyed it, however mine is more 'lesbian placed' as Alayna said previously, so maybe my experience isn't the normal. Because it's not towards the back, it's not constantly hitting the more sensitive part, I have more control.

For me when I was struggling w my sexuality the biggest fear, to answer Alaynas question, was that I would actually just be straight. Not to do with other peoples perceptions at all. I think being horrified at the idea of being straight & not wanting to be straight should have let me know I’m not but there were a lot of things I ignored or dismissed & gaslighted within myself lol

I had a tongue piercing but never gave oral while I had it. The stereotype I always heard was that tongue piercings made blowjobs specifically better, not oral sex as a whole Edit: also I just got to the end where you explicitly affirm trans lesbians and honestly you guys my heart

Ok so, I have received from people with tongue piercings. I like it, but not straight away. It is more for when you want someone to... up the anti? Like sometimes you just want your clit to be hammered? It's a sometimes treat. A tool in a wide array of movements and techniques. Sometimes it's too much/direct... sometimes it is PERFECT. To be fair, this is just my experience. I've been with people who have been too sensitive for digits, and others who needed very direct contact to feel anything at all. Probably all about communicating? What are other people's experiences?

So my partner was a pricer and did a lot of clit pircings and also for other expirience they saied that the larger the clit, the nore carefull and softer you have to be. That made total sens to me cuz the larger survace would also have a lot more nervendings.

My pro -tip for the day : how to get the most out of every episode: I always listen to the pod driving or going on my day. After that-I go and watch the same episode on yt as soon as I find the time to watch you all interact-and that aways is like seing/hearing it anew. 😊

I just wanna say that as a bi woman who is engaged to a trans woman and "suffered" for so many years with my conservative family that you have to find the right people that walks beside you. Me and my gf recently moved to another state and all of our friends here are queer. Now, we literally have our chosen family that trully respect us, help us when we need and trully love us. This is the best of life we are living now. (and that talks a little about Mak situation about moving from our parents city, because we've been so happy and true to ourselves --despite money being a really thing). All of that just to say that I'm really glad I can watch your videos, undestand a little bit more about myself in this process and be happy with it. ((((and also i'm sorry about my bad english haha i don't know if i've made myself clear))))
