Eat shit, 6-year-old

You're asking this in a community that's specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.

After reading the caption I had to look at the picture several times to convince myself it was not, in fact, Ben Shapiro in a garfield costume

I agree, and you're right: I'm being somewhat reductive about it. Yes, lots of people are going to struggle with finding a partner no matter what, and many will struggle to find a partner who isn't straight in the environments where they live.

Read my advice as: if you're worried about this AND if you have a choice, you can improve your odds by dating people who are less homophobic. Honestly, if you think someone has any degree of homophobia, don't fuck them. That goes for men or women. And sometimes you'll get it wrong; that's okay, keep trying.

The title's message is not supported by the 2019 study.

They found lower levels of agreement with the statements around attraction to mlm, but not zero. Just less than straight men. Unless you thought women held no homophobia at all, this isn't even remotely surprising. It's barely interesting. Meanwhile women who rated lower on homophobia preferred bi men.

So date bi women. Or date gay men who, according to the survey, do not have the same biphobic prejudice.

why not just let lose of this crippling desire to align ourselves with some historical identity

Fair enough. Counterpoint: It doesn't freaking matter what word we use. No matter what the word is, the right will attempt to poison it and stir hatred of it and assign meanings to it that aren't real. Look at what happened to "woke". It will keep happening, because the modern right is Fascism, and poisoning language is a fascist tactic that goes back to the very beginning. You call yourself an Anarchist; where on Earth do you live that nobody has negative associations with "Anarchist".

Use whatever word you want, just use it consistently. Don't expect it to stay free of propaganda, because they do that to our words on purpose.

I zoomed in on the notes. I couldn't make it out completely, but here's what I saw:

  1. No close-ups of Barbie's feet
  2. No close-ups of Ken's feet
  3. Barbie always wearing shoes even in long shots

I think it's very much like regular ice cream, but a flavor an octopus would eat.

Crab, maybe.

Pretty rare to see a swastika that's drawn well enough to do this
