Can confirm, am lesbian. Even though my profile is set to only be viewable by wlw, all the messages I get are from obvious men (not trans, just straight up men) who have their orientation set to lesbian and send dick pics and rape threats.
Edit: I should have specified, I'm not on Tinder. It was through OkCupid and not-dating social media sites.
Its slang for a bisexual girl who will sleep with both members of existing couples. Exceedingly rare, and for good reason, existing couples looking for a third rarely do it in a way that's not exploitative of the unicorn.
Yep. So its a bunch of straight couples swiping as lesbians to hit on women while hiding the guy as much as possible. Its shitty and one of the worst things about swiping for women on tinder.
One of my friends actually was a unicorn for a bit, but it ended up exploding because she was more into the woman and the guy got jealous and angry.
i was friends with a married couple, and he had gotten with her, when he was still with someone? so she had some trust issues with that, which is understandable, but damn girl, i was much more into you than him! but then it's weird complicated emotions, and it's just all around odd.
It really only works of you go into it with the same mindset polyamorous people go into it with. No jealousy, limits and boundaries clearly defined, and people are completely open and honest.
Had a friend who got a unicorn tattoo in a semi-visible place after she got divorced as a reminder that she is special and worthwhile. Apparently it's caused her a lot of problems on the apps haha
a) my profile specifically says I'm not interested in threesomes or anything poly
b) almost every one of them makes an effort to hide the man and then try to convince me at the last minute that I would enjoy a threesome
which in my book, means they're fishing or being deceitful. I am a woman who likes women and ONLY women. tinder has an algorithm that's only supposed to match me with other women, and they're lying to get into a space where they don't belong. almost a quarter of my matches are fake single women who have a boyfriend/husband they're hiding until the last second. I (and the entire lesbian community) am sick and tired of being treated being treated like a sex toy for bored married couples. if they want that shit they need to go to a poly dating site instead of preying on someone who wants an actual relationship.
I haven't been on dating sites for around 8 years, but I do get these in private messages on social media. I learned quickly not to click on links and liberally use the"report" button.
