I know this might sound like a strange question, but I’d like to talk about it. I recently joined a lesbian Discord server. After chatting for a while, I shared that I’m married to a man due to cultural and religious reasons. I was married at 16, and it wasn’t really my choice, so I didn’t have any prior experience with men or women. People in the server seemed to expect me to say that I hate my husband or find sex with him disgusting, but I don’t. My primary and only attraction is to women, but I can still enjoy sex with a man on a physical level. My first experience with a woman happened after I was already married, and it was actually facilitated by my husband, who is supportive and helps me connect with women discreetly since I live in a very conservative country. After I shared this, many people in the server reacted negatively and called me a “fake lesbian” or bisexual, which honestly hurt.

    I tend to do that when someone goes for the worst possible interpretation so they can assume ignorance.

    Frankly you walked in sounding like the kind of people who were mean to OP on discord.

      No, you deliberately gave OP incorrect information and now are pitching a fit because someone corrected you.

        I mentioned ace because there was experiential overlap. But obviously OP isn’t ace. They’re into women FFS.

        You can assume whatever you like. I’ve clarified my meaning.

            How are you reading my mind, and still so wrong about what I “deliberately” meant to say?

            I started off agreeing with you, and I still do. Rudely, but still.

              What?

              Seriously, what do you except here? You gave wrong information got corrected and are still bawling.

                I expect you to stop attributing malice where none existed.

                An maybe admit that “not how that works” isn’t the tactful way to point out a problem.
