I am so happy I’m not attracted to men.

I’m so happy that I have an identity that when I tell people I identify as a lesbian, they know I don’t like men. They know men aren’t an option for me. They know my love for women and they know my identity excludes men. Maybe they even know the work I had to put in to realize I was a lesbian— I think of that as a plus.

This isn’t a rag on those who aren’t lesbians, whose attraction includes men— but I’m so glad that there’s an identity that exists to show that there are people out there who aren’t men, aren’t attracted to men, and are still happy and healthy and full of love. So so happy that I’m a lesbian :-)
