So what do I do? Do I ask to post more trans shit? Do I have any right to ask people I don’t even know to include me? Thank you for your time! A: It feels like the most popular voices in online lesbian culture either don’t know any trans women in real life, or are afraid to include trans women in their material.

But it feels like there’s never a reference to coming out as a trans lesbian, or any of the problems that we face, or the joys that we also have as trans lesbians. There will be these super relatable memes about dating as a lesbian, coming out, all that. But I just don’t see trans women included in that kind of thing. Many meme accounts and other such will share beautiful art and artists depicting lesbian intimacy, even including non-binary people. I spend a lot of time on lesbian instagram and tiktok, and while there’s tons for me to relate to, it feels conspicuous how little trans women’s bodies are shown or mentioned in the lesbian memespace.

Hi :) My name is, and I’m a trans woman.
