Invisible lesbian syndrome

i don't see how that's a problem.....

why do you want people to know with those subtle things?
or rather, why do you want to fit in certain stereotypic fashion?

 

Wear a rainbow wristband or something. But don't try to fit a stereotype just for the hell of it. If its important for people to know, then tell them.

 

Wear something rainbow like a bracelet or necklace

 

IIi completely know what you mean. I want people (okay, other gays) to know I'm gay so that they recognize me as a possibility. It sucks when you feel unnoticed. I think you should just be who you are and then somebody will come along and be the lucky gal who knows. You could try wearing a rainbow bracelet if you want, too.

 

Ditto. I kind of wish there was a surefire way for other gay/queer women to know that I'm also like them besides wearing rainbow-colored articles of clothing, although that is a pretty neat idea that I might try out soon! It does make one wonder, though. Like for example, I keep thinking how kickass it would be if all gay girls had a nice "secret perfume" that only other gay girls could smell. :lol: Or if all gay girls had a small, invisible neon sign floating above their head that only other gay girls could see. The neon letter "L" for lesbian, "B" for bi, "P" for pansexual, "O" for other. Might be a little annoying after a while to have other people coming up to you all day, but hey, it beats not meeting anybody at all, right? (I hope...) :lol:

 

I don't know how to let people know either. I am the girliest lipstick lesbian you'll ever know lol! And Everyone seems really shocked when they find out I'm gay. I agree with other people are saying. Maybe try the rainbow gear.

 

Or you could go all in and wear a rainbow hoodie to school every day...

 

No that's cool, like in video games you walk up to someone and the sign pops up.

 

From your description, if I were to see you in public and know nothing about you, I would assume you were gay. But yeah, definitely wear a rainbow bracelet, belt, necklace, or something. :icon_wink

 

Huh???
What do lesbians look like???

Anyways... Rainbow paraphernalia.
It's somewhat annoying sometimes, but it's the most obvious way.

That said, I have a "Say 'NO' to homophobia" rainbow bracelet and some people still are "Oh, so you support??"... which I reply "I am"... and they're like O______O
You'd think it'll be obvious. *sigh*
I'm tomboy-ish... but I guess most people think I'm a tomboy and not a tomboy lesbian.
It definitely depends on the gaydar of the person, so something obvious definitely helps.

 

Made me want one of those too! It really sucks to be inflicted with the ILS. A secret sign would be great, rainbows are a little obvious, lol! But nice, though, and should look good with band Tshirts and such. I usually wear very classy clothing (in style, not prize, lol), so it might stick out more on me, but I`d do it

With classy I meant pure black, no accessories other than what matches my shoes, never more than two colors, etc. I don`t mean that T shirts and other things are somehow less nice or anything, which some people sometimes misunderstand and say I seem to have a superiority attitude. But where I come from, classy means simply "simple" "not a lot of colors" "matching", etc..

 

That sounds cute! I'd make one on a black band with the symbols carved into a pair of silver coloured pieces of metal, then slip on maybe some beads or charms to make it look nice. =)

 

I had that problem too. I mean I didn't want to look like a stereotype, but it would make it so much easier if you could just know if someone was bi or gay. It would save me the pain of falling for straight girls all the damn time haha.

 

That's never happened to me, I'm too awkward to flirt, but I can imagine that being embarrassing!
