the thing that fucks you up with compulsory heterosexuality tho is that you confuse literally everything with attraction. a guy made me laugh? I must be attracted to him. a guy made me feel uncomfortable, scared, sad? it’s gotta be because I’m attracted to him
it was only when I started acknowledging and legitimising my attraction to women that I realised how absolutely fake my attraction to men was
everything we feel for a man is labeled attraction, and it starts when we’re very young. make friends with a boy in first grade? aww, you must have a crush!
