If you don’t kiss the homies on the mouth are you even friends?
Gives me KenM vibes
GOOD point

Apparently op hasn’t heard the phrase best friend applied to a partner
Edit: apparently an enraging lighthearted joke.
Edit2: also apparently this thread believes kissing on the mouth in a photo doesn’t mean we all know the relationship type. And also friends never give their organs. That can only ever happen between people who have sex. So we know that the headline was worded this way based on the fact that giving a kidney is an act of love that is definitely easily confined to a phrase that simply means two people sleep together. /s
It would have been easy to see the headline as awkward but also probably not mal intended or even ignorant. But nope, not allowed on the Internet.
It’s one of those “to you it’s a joke you just thought of, to them it’s another reminder that people often don’t accept them, either intentionally or unintentionally”
There are genuinely people who it would never cross their mind that two women without husbands living together long term means they might be married to each other or at least a couple. Some people will actively try and dismiss the fact that they’re together and introduce them as friends. And others might just assume “roommates/friends” and ignore obvious “they’re together” signs just because they don’t get exposed to non-cis relationships often, not through malice or conscious effort.
I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to a friend’s parents introduce a girlfriend as “this is Xs good friend Y” only to have X correct “GIRLfriend. We’re together.” angrily.
There’s a time and a place for all jokes, in my opinion. This just isn’t it, I think. Just hits a sore spot.
To me the image shows that they know they’re more than “friends”.
I deserved that. I’m a terrible human.
Me too. I try to rein in my slightly sadistic contrarian everyday urges unlike my mother. It’s some kind of genetic thing
I mean, I was joking, originally and in that last comment too
Of course, it’s all jokes. I am joking also. For the most part. It’s 75% a joke
Gotcha
