Lesbianism and Sabrina Carpenter

So for a while now I've been questioning whether I identify as bisexual or lesbian. For now, I have decided that lesbian is the label I am most comfortable with. That being said, I have been with significantly more men than with women and it's scary to -lose isn't the right term- but give up that option. It's scary because that option was there and it was easy. Even if I'm not everyone's type (and I'm not) it was fairly easy to get men to want me, pursue me, and tell me things that (mostly) made me feel good about myself. It's not easy to give up that kind of validation, especially since it's something I have craved for so much of my life. Moving away from that in real life is somewhat difficult, even if I know it's the right choice for me.

This brings me to Sabrina Carpenter. I've only listened to about four of her songs but every single one of them fulfills the need I feel for male validation through the sheer confidence she exudes. The first verse of Espresso after the chorus is so good.

"I can't relate to desperation My 'give a fucks' are on vacation And I got this one boy And he won't stop calling When they act this way I know I got 'em"

Do I want a man to be paying me attention? Not particularly. But I love how I feel when I sing that with her. I don't know. It's very helpful to feel that validation vicariously while shifting into this new way of thinking about myself. Anyway, thanks Sabrina.

Because it's just like. Darcy did everything Lizzy ever told him to, yknow? He asked how she thought people should kindle affection and she said dancing, so then he asked her to dance. She asked what he qualifies as an accomplished woman, he looked at her and the book she was reading, and said a well read woman. She said he should talk while they're dancing, so he asked about her and her sisters going to Merryton. She told him he should practice talking to people he's not already familiar with, so he came over and visited her the very next day. You know??? Do you see???? He has been shouting from the very start that he cares for her, in his own way, just as Jane shouted her love to Bingley, in her own way. And then when she was visiting Rosings and Lady Catherine de Bourgh, his own aunt, was being obnoxious and rude to her, he felt the shame of having undesirable connections just as she had in the beginning. Do you see it!!!! Mr Darcy has been ardently in love with her from the very beginning, and he's been missing the parallels between their lives the whole time!!! He's so pathetic and sopping wet it hurts!!!
