Lesbian Stereotypes

The video is apparently working only sometimes so if you wanna watch it I posted it again and here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIoU_gHv9yM

I thought I would help clear up some misleading and untrue stereotypes that gays and lesbians have been labeled with!
1.My favorite color is not the rainbow! If I wear a pink floyd shirt it's because I like Pink Floyd.
2.Yes, my hair is SHORT... BUT I DON'T want to be a boy!
3.Yes, I played with GiJOES as a kid because GIJOES are more durable than barbies.
4.Yes, I am a tom-boy. I dress for comfort.
5.No, there isn't a handbook that we all carry around and no we are not secretly trying to convert you.
6. If you become confused...it's because you aren't sure what you want. Not because I brainwashed you and no, Ellen does not teach a class on how to be gay!
7. Yes, I do wear polos but um...I also wear dresses!
8. Yes, I wear sports bras...especially when I play sports...but I also wear regular bras.
9. Yes, I do play softball BUT not all lesbians play softball and because I play softball that doesn't make me a butch!
10. No, I don't carry a knife on me!
11. No, I can't beat you at pool and I don't have a motorcycle. Nor do I hang out in bars! But I am 20!
12. Yes, I am muscular! Because I play sports not because I want to look like a man!
13. Yes, I do SHAVE! I'm not trying to grow a chia pet
14. Yes, I have gay friends, but I have more straight friends than gay ones.
15. And yes, I do watch L-WORD! But, I also watch Alias and Weeds...and Sex in the City
16. NO, I don't have any STDS. NOR do I sleep around!
17. NO, I can't work on your automobile and when I get a flat I call my Dad.
18. NO, I don't own flannel or plaid!
19. And no I'm not trying to recruit you...sorry
20. I'm not trying to earn special patches for a gay vest or something. There is no reward. This isn't Mary Kay!
21. No, I don't hate men! I actually prefer to have guy friends. When guys treat you like their sister or brother it's all good...but when girls treat you like their sister it's all drama!
22. Yes, my voice is low...But it's not because I am trying to be butch
23. No, I don't desire to work in construction! NOR do I want to drive trucks...
24. Yes, I was in the military! BUT newsflash, that's not the best way to pick up chicks!
25. Yes, I wear mens boxers BECAUSE they are comfortable...straight girls wear mens boxers too!
26. Yes, I love listening to Tegan and Sara BUT not all lesbians like them!
27. Yes, I drink bitch beer...
28. No, I have never been to a strip club!
29. Yes, I do watch Ellen BUT, I also watch Oprah!
30. See, I told you I wore dresses.
31. Yes, I am wearing clothes.
32. I don't consider myself butch or femme. I consider myself casually in between.
33. No, I am not a vegetarian and no, I don't like tofu. Um...it's kinda gross to me!
34. And no I don't own berkenstocks nor do I plan to...I own doc Martins.
35. I think girls in uniform are HOT!
36. I don't have any rainbow tattoos BUT I do have tattoos...Made in China (on my foot)
37. AND no I can't dance!

I have short hair because it's just easier to wash. It used to be long, but I'm too lazy to wash it... Plus, I personally think short hair looks better on me.

Love this! Love you for doing it! Everyone should watch this!

[Angel21996]

Youre hot, and I completely agree with you.

[TheBobtheperv]

no offence , but i don't think your the best poster child for going against lesbian stereotypes, infact this video almost promotes them.

[SophisticatedLunatic]

I've got shorter hair than you - I am almost bald.

I have always been a tomboy - but I hate sports and prefer musicals and ballet.

I don't hate men - I find them, in a way, much more misunderstood sex than women (at least nowadays). I have a huge guy sympathy.

And... am I a lesbian? I have no idea. I like feminity, but the feminity can as well be in a guy. Confused? Me too...

YouTube sucks so hard. "No, we're not secretly trying to convert you."
