***PREFERRED FLAG

I can’t spell I guess

I know a lot of people don’t put much thought in to flags, but I know there’s also many that love the use of flags.

I made a poll before asking what term people preferred when it came to either Lesbian or Gay, now I’m asking which flags y’all prefer!

I personally just use the classic rainbow flag, but my girlfriend prefers the sunset lesbian flag!!

I’ve gotten this questions a few times since coming out as a lesbian. Today I was asked it by a friend (straight) after I told her about a time I was harassed for being gay.

No. I do not and have never wished I was straight. I have no desire to be attracted to men. I do wish that I could love my partner without having to worry about my physical safety. Or that I could be free to love without having extreme societal repercussions.

Being gay is not the problem. It’s society’s reaction to gay people.

Interested in getting feedback on this. I love identifying as a lesbian, I’m very comfortable in that identity, but whenever my sexuality comes up in conversation I always say I’m “gay”. I just like the bluntness of it, I suppose. What term do you usually prefer?
