      There’s an interesting conversation that could be had about reclaiming slurs and who can use slurs and when they can be used.

      I’d argue men talking about lesbians might wanna refrain from using a slur against women though lol

          Fair. Could be internalized misogyny that’s talking.

          The meme is funnier without the sexism.

            And I think it’s great as-is, and I’m a woman.

                You’re right, but it really depends on a few factors, such as who’s saying it, what type of person they are, if they’re addressing a particular person or a class of people, and so on.

                Anyway, I’m out, there is shit to do in the land of grass and trees.
