It's this fear that you feel when you do something that has been in the Forbidden Category your whole life. I remember on my first date with a girl, I was so awkward and shaky because I kept feeling like I was breaking a rule. Of course, it's just the internalized homophobia from my mom always saying that being gay is "disgusting" and "shameful to god", but it definitely trips you up for a while.

Here is a relevant quote “Love at first sight doesn't exist. Love takes time, and love takes work. At the very least you have to know the other person.”

constantly stuck between 'am i actually a lesbian with daddy issues and compulsory heterosexuality' and 'am i bisexual with lots of internal biphobia' and 'am i actually straight and cannot differentiate platonic, sexual and romantic attraction' and 'am i actually straight and think being bi or struggling with my sexuality creates a good personal narrative in the coming of age movie of my life' lmao

it gets back to the reason of why going to college in one life? just as there are so many ways to better yourself. still there are people who will love you, no matter what you choose to do in your life.
Ngl this comment made me feel so much better about me just going away for college and non stop studying just to graduate and not going out cos I don’t like to, but somehow I feel guilty for not going out and feeling like I’m missing out on the experience and realizing that it’s such a just a small part of my life and better things are ahead.

My favorite quote on self care is this one: “I'm going to let you in on a little secret: every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it; don't wait for it; just let it happen. It could be a new shirt in a men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black, coffee.” You don’t need to take the time to enjoy your time :) and it’s ok to not be ok
i know im randomly asking but does any of you know a method to get back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can offer me.
Ashley’s story about her sexuality is exactly what I’ve been feeling like lately. I like guys more than girls but I still like girls and because of that I feel like a fake bisexual person and like I’m just trying to get someone’s attention.
I struggled with that exact thing for soooo long! You can prefer one more than the other and still be bi! Very few bi people are an exact 50/50 split! Worrying that you're just faking it is part of the bisexual struggle 😞
I.....it's a bit different like when people ask what your sexualitie I just say that I am not sure cause I can totally imagine my self dating a girl but also a guy 😂 but then comes a tricky part the reason why don't call myself bi I am not romantically interested like I like anime guys ahm ahm(yes I do have high standards) and even girls but hey we never know what happens in the future 😂
dude im literally a FULL lesbian and im still so homophobic like i know it doesn’t make sense but my guts tell me i shouldn’t like girls and i feel shame but like seriously thank you internal homophobia
Natalia is a loser I‘m bi, and this is so relatable... I reaaaally looove girls but somehow every time I hooked up/ made out with a girl it felt kinda shameful :(
Im aro ace and I feel kinda wrong about it. Im just not comfortable with calling myself anything else though. I feel ashamed of it and like i have no reason to?? :(
@@peiithos I see a lot of homophobic/transphobic/lgbtq phobic comments on twitter and stuff and sometimes the things people say sort of stick in my head, even though I know there's nothing wrong with being lgbtq....
girl, with all the love and support in the world I tell you this: go to therapy. I know its a controversial thing to say and it can sound bad but it's not!!! I've been going for years now and it's a great place to reflect and learn new perspectives. you'll probably stop blaming the apartments then haha
This thread is awesome, and I just want to add that even if you don’t think therapy is for you, or that your problems aren’t big enough, it’s not true! Therapy is beneficial for EVERYONE!
as a bi woman i struggled for many years with internalized biphobia, but i can finally say i now accept myself fully. peace and acceptance are possible
I need Ashley to create a “sex and the city” coming of maturity & self-realization from the the view-point of a 22 y/o Asian-American women, kinda movie. I NEED this type of relatable dramatic-comedy in my life!
A beautiful yet immensely dangerous phenomenon; not only because of the fans showing up at their house and stuff, but because it might in a way become a substitute for forming "real" reciprocal relationships. But on a lonely night, I'll be dammed if I don't feel like I do have a friend behind a screen. It's odd.
You have an intelligent way of expressing things, especially psychological states. You're also really witty. And there's a great energy to your videos and they're stimulating and I love your honesty and humility and courage.
When I came out to my parents as bi, I KNEW they would be absolutely fine with it. I was certain I had nothing to be scared of, but when I finally decided to do it, and I gathered them into a room without anyone else, I couldn't even get out 4 words before I started crying. I was so lucky that their response was, "honey, that's awesome!" instead of literally anything else, but I was shaking. Internalized homophobia is so real.
@@wingsofescape I'm really sorry that happened. I hope it helps to know that there are people who are very kind and accepting no matter what you throw at them, and I'm sure you will meet some in time. Also, Dutch girls sound real pretty and I'm a little jealous I cant fall for one, too.
YES! It was only my mother at the time and I considered my sexuality in conversation with her (she had assumed I was a lesbian, I then identified as bi for a short time before finding out about pansexuality, which is a label I've used for years now), but for *years* (and even currently, if I'm honest) I would constantly think to myself that the only reason I thought I was bi or then pan was because I wanted to be trendy or quirky, despite the fact that my mother was supportive and I grew up in a (somewhat) inclusive household/area. I never had to come out to my father (he was in prison whilst I was questioning, and my mother had told him herself), and I avoid coming out to extended family members to this day, despite the fact that I have LGBT+ family friends that they are perfectly supportive of, because I feel sick to my stomach at the thought. I'm so glad internalised homophobia is getting talked about in more conversations, because the only reason I realised it wasn't so widely known was because one of my best friends (one of the only straight people in my friendship group) laughed when I mentioned it because she didn't think it existed.
This might sound weird but I'm 17 and becoming an adult literally terrifies me but watching you handle being an adult makes it a little bit less terrifying so thank you so much for that
I'm 18 and trying to get into college and all that being _independent_ terrifies me but -im sorry but its true- seeing ppl actually feel that too kinda ease me :)
I have seen your comments on two of my fav RUclipsr’s videos now what is going on?????? Are you everywhere? I can’t imagine my three favorite RUclipsrs actually have the time to watch the other’s videos????
I came out to my parents as bi last weekend and they immediately ordered me pride month crocs :) Edit: They just came in and I'm currently wearing them as I type 😊😊. 10/10 recommend they are adorable and comfy lol
As a bi girl let me tell you it’s so valid to not be 50/50 most people aren’t. It’s also valid to only be sexually attracted to women and not romantically attracted. You. Are. Valid.
My ex said to me : everyone want to find the right person but no one wants to be the right person and that's something that stuck with me for life And here's something I read : for a relationship to work both people need to work on it not just you or your partner that should work both of you need to work on your really together
This girl doesn't know how much she helped 17-year-old me, even I didn't realize it at the time. But she was an older-sister figure when I was living abroad with no friends and apart from my family. Watching her videos always felt like a cozy chat with an old friend, her perspective on things like sexuality(especially the shame that comes with being socialized as a woman), self-image, relationships, just anything, they really helped me connect with myself and my own thoughts and beginning to form a perception of who I am as a person. I'm very thankful for the time she spent on youtube, even if she decides that it isn't the medium for her anymore, because the footprint that she left is enough. Watching her old videos after a long time feels like a warm hug. Thank you, Ashley
Ashley talking about her sexuality and questioning it made me feel so like seen ??? Idk her experiences and the timid nature of it all just resonates with me.
Highkey esp if you only realize like after the 20 yr old Mark it already feels like it’s “too late” to explore it or like you’re faking otherwise you would’ve done something sooner
Considering all the hate going on all over the internet, seeing a bunch of humans sharing kind messages to other humans through this comment section it's impressively uplifting
My therapist once said something to me that has really stuck with me and something you need to hear ashley: "happiness doesn't come from a place, you won't find it by moving away." So take what you will from that :) Things will get better for you mentally, Ashley! Please don't beat yourself up. Be kind to yourself! It's okay not to be okay
I personally disagree. I'm someone who's happiness depends on where I live because my mental health is pretty good for the most part. So if I'm in a city environment where there aren't many plants or nature then I'm more likely to be upset and impatient with people. I really need the peace of nature and have "the boons" farmland, hiking trails go be very close to where I live. Also where I lived in the city had too many republicans so I didn't feel like I belonged lol.
Having a kink doesn’t mean you aren’t a feminist. Feminism is not about all women living and thinking one way. It’s the freedom of choice. To choose for yourself how you want to be and live. Traditional or modern, stay at home mom or career gal, vanilla or kinky. It’s for you to decide. Not men, not society, and not other women. One way of thinking is not superior to another.
And then there‘s me: Sixteen years old, experiencing a global pandemic, living in a quite big city and I still haven‘t had my first date, kiss or boyfriend/girlfriend 🧚🏻♂️
DW about it, you gotta wait for the right person. You don't wanna lose ur first kiss to someone you don't really like or get too emotionally attached to someone who doesn't care abt u
It's gonna come very naturally dude, don't you worry. I didn't have my first kiss and relationship until I was 17, which was kinda weird, I felt kinda inexperienced but at the end was a great decision. Try to wait for someone who you're naturally drawn to, who really works well with you. The first kiss can suck tho, you should keep that in mind, tongues are awkward, but you'll learn to do it better with time.
Look it really isn't that big of a thing. I had my first kiss with 19. you really do not need to worry about it. I get that you might feel pressured bc i certainly did at age 16.
Aw that's still soooo young, it seems like it isn't but you'll be glaad it took awhile for you to be able to think properly before entering a relationship with someone else (being with yourself at that age is already too much to handle usually haha). I got my very first kiss, sex, relationship with my now husband at 20 and at the time I thought it would never ever happen and out of no damn where when I wasn't looking for it at all.. it did. I still wish I could go back and tell my past to chill the heck out ;}
“I feel like I'm an imposter” girl if that ain’t the biggest sexuality mOoD Edit: wow didn't expect this many likes. Thank you for sharing in the replies, glad we all have each other to lean on. If you read this and are struggling, take this moment to relax for a few minutes. You don't have everything figured out right now and thats ok 🏳️🌈💕
Sarcastic Squareflake LEGIT! honestly Ashley and all the comments here are making me feel less lonely with this sexuality crisis were That voice in my head says “You’re not gay enough”
"She was a sad girl who derived her entire personality from (500) Days of Summer" if you come at me any harder you might as well just pUNCH me in the face
That's a huge bisexual mood tbh, but just remember that you're totally allowed to be confused and conflicted and not super certain when it comes to your sexuality because people change and grow and you're definitely not just "doing it because its trendy" because that's not something you do by accident you know? Anyway, you're valid x
@@IvyBellwether this is exactly what I needed to hear. It's always a worry that if I say I am then I can't change my mind later or I'm fake and just 'wanted to be trendy'. :)
It’s completely normal to get intrusive thoughts but try to calm yourself down when you get them. It comes from internalized biphobia it’s an insecurity and we all have them it’s nothing to be ashamed of even if it’s not really pleasant. We were raised to think any love that isn’t heteronormative is wrong and/or invalid and it takes work to deconstruct all that in our brains. Love who you love as freely as you can and remember that you’re enough. And that goes to everyone we’re all enough, love is love❤️
@@IvyBellwether i love this! i'm straight but lately i've been wondering what if and questioning myself, but i'm scared i'd receive judgement if i ended up "staying straight" if that makes sense...
I've been trying to discover my sexuality if I'm bi or not. It's cos I like the idea of going on a date with a woman and all that cute shit but I cannot imagine myself getting turn on by woman like I'm more turn on by men than women. idkkk plss help
@@caveofmine9889 there's no pressure to figure it out! I went from 'if my soulmate was a woman I guess I wouldn't hate that' to 'i think I'd like to hold this girl's hand' to 'YES WOMEN ARE PRETTY MEN ARE PRETTY GIVE ME EVERYONE' over like three or four years. It might go in the same direction for you, or in the opposite one, but just relax and see what happens!
girl i have the exact same thing with bisexuality. its like im ashamed even though i see no problem being bi. idk man im just so confused bc calling myself straight doesnt feel right but calling myself bi feels like im an imposter or that im just doing it for male attention or bc its cool to be bi now (thats kinda a stretch but yea) anyway i think we should just now worry about labels and just feel love for whoever we want, dont stress it bby
Yess same!! It’s so “cool” to be bi now and I don’t wanna be perceived as fake. I’ve been out as bi to only a few friends for the past 13 years but I just so happened to meet a guy and fell in love with him and I’m still with him so I never got to see what the other side is really like aside from kissing one girl who I didn’t even like, she was just the only other bi chick in my small town😂 2 of my single girlfriends are come out as bi within the past 6 months and I’ve known them my whole life and I genuinely don’t trust them, I think they are just lonely and scared they’re gonna end up alone and a lot of our friends are gay and they think pride is cool and trendy. It honestly pisses me off. But I really feel like I struggle the most with coming out because I’m in a long term hetero relationship and I may never date again so I will never experience what it’s like to be with a women (which is fine, I’m ok with sacrificing that for a true life partner) and because I didn’t suffer for it, my gay friends were bullied as kids and I wasn’t because everyone thought I was straight so I don’t fee like part of the community.
Gray Girl on the Water yes exactly I feel like I don’t really belong in the community because I never really had that experience also my straight friends also talk about how they are so “so gay” and “so woke” but are really the “don’t get a crush on me type” but ofc in their eyes I’m straight.
she seems like the exact type of friend i can easily have a conversation with thats kind of awkward but is really comfortable which is the absolute best
Ashley saying "I hooked up with a girl and that was... cool" felt so much like my best friend telling me about the girl she has a crush on, it made my heart hurt. Keep being awesome
As a bisexual, I’m here to say something! You can have preferences! It doesn’t have to be 50/50! You can especially feel like an imposter if you’ve never dated the same gender, y’know. Bisexual is not gay or straight. It’s 100% bisexual! Your valid no matter what! Happy Pride Month!
Exactly! And it's also fine if it changes! Some weeks I can't get enough of women and some weeks I prefer men, everything is alright and there's no box you have to fit in!!
me: ashley is a taurus ashley: *has 40 million plants, a youtube dedicated to fashion and therapy, desperately wanted to be toph when she was a kid* me: ashley is Definitely a taurus
Whenever I see Ashley getting nervous/uncertain on camera for being honest, I just wanna lead her head to my shoulder, rub her back and tell her it's gonna be okay. You'll be okay, Ash. Know that even though I'm just one person, at least you know there will always be this one person who supports you. Edit: Oh my, i am surprised by the responses to this comment, thank you. Just wanna say that even though life is uncertain, we lived through what we thought were the hardest days of our lives and we're still here. Know that whatever it is you're going through is only temporary and will pass. I hope you all are warm and are enjoying the fruits of summer (or whichever season you encounter this message).
Ashley: makes points about sexuality, fast fashion, missing the structure of college Me: *aggressively snapping in mutual understanding and solidarity*
There’s this saying in the Bah’ai Faith that goes “wherever you go, there you are.” And what that means is that we live our entire lives inside our heads, and that wherever you go, you’re you. There you are. And this can be positive and negative and anything in between. Changing your environment can help. But the only way out is through sometimes. We have to face our issues head on, without fear or trepidation, and solve them within ourselves before we can find peace. And we do that with community, with understanding, with care for our fellow human beings and for something bigger and more important outside of ourselves. And ourselves as well. We deserve love. And to love anyone else, it starts there. You can’t give someone else a life saving breathing device on a plane until you can give yourself that. You’re lovely. You’re worthy of love. And once you understand that, you can help the most people.
Oooh ooh with regard to bisexuality- look up the term “comp het” short for compulsory heterosexuality. It’s basically about how a lot of people are just more inclined to say they’re straight because they feel like it’s what’s expected of them or what they should be. I only even heard the term on a contrapoints video about it which is cool
from what i know, comphet or compulsory heterosexuality is actually an exclusive term for gay and lesbians. for bisexuals its internalized homophobia. :)

Ashley’s story about her sexuality is exactly what I’ve been feeling like lately. I like guys more than girls but I still like girls and because of that I feel like a fake bisexual person and like I’m just trying to get someone’s attention.
Same here, I'm never gay enough, and then when I try to be I feel like I'm lying, so I try to be more honest with myself but it never feels right
you ARE VALID
I struggled with that exact thing for soooo long! You can prefer one more than the other and still be bi! Very few bi people are an exact 50/50 split! Worrying that you're just faking it is part of the bisexual struggle 😞
I.....it's a bit different like when people ask what your sexualitie I just say that I am not sure cause I can totally imagine my self dating a girl but also a guy 😂 but then comes a tricky part the reason why don't call myself bi I am not romantically interested like I like anime guys ahm ahm(yes I do have high standards) and even girls but hey we never know what happens in the future 😂
You guys are all VALID!!! I rly hope you know that
dude im literally a FULL lesbian and im still so homophobic like i know it doesn’t make sense but my guts tell me i shouldn’t like girls and i feel shame but like seriously thank you internal homophobia
same :/
Natalia is a loser I‘m bi, and this is so relatable... I reaaaally looove girls but somehow every time I hooked up/ made out with a girl it felt kinda shameful :(
samee.... sometimes I feel so great that I'm gay and then I feel all weird and feel like I'm wrong for liking girls....
Im aro ace and I feel kinda wrong about it. Im just not comfortable with calling myself anything else though. I feel ashamed of it and like i have no reason to?? :(
@@peiithos I see a lot of homophobic/transphobic/lgbtq phobic comments on twitter and stuff and sometimes the things people say sort of stick in my head, even though I know there's nothing wrong with being lgbtq....

@Saira Iqbal I'm a floor..

floor gang aooh
girl, with all the love and support in the world I tell you this: go to therapy. I know its a controversial thing to say and it can sound bad but it's not!!! I've been going for years now and it's a great place to reflect and learn new perspectives. you'll probably stop blaming the apartments then haha
A severely underrated comment! I need this to be megaphoned to the world
Yes! I started going a few months ago and it was short term but it was SO helpful and I'm so glad I did it
yes yes :ooo investing in yourself is the best investment you could make aye
my mother has always said that us humans could use therapy at some point in our lives. it helps a lot. i’ve been considering going back
This thread is awesome, and I just want to add that even if you don’t think therapy is for you, or that your problems aren’t big enough, it’s not true! Therapy is beneficial for EVERYONE!
I love how ashley goes in depth with all her answers. She doesn’t give a simple response and makes every question so interesting 💕
And that is making her so much better from those many money-oriented youtubers that just do it for the sake of getting a coin
as a bi woman i struggled for many years with internalized biphobia, but i can finally say i now accept myself fully.
peace and acceptance are possible
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like this about their sexuality . Also tik tok did the same thing to me that’s crazy
literally same and also tiktok made me question everything
SAME! her whole story felt like listening to myself trying to explain myself to myself.
Im glad someone Else relates to this to:)
sameee!
Theresa same?? and i like it?? i’m confused??
I need Ashley to create a “sex and the city” coming of maturity & self-realization from the the view-point of a 22 y/o Asian-American women, kinda movie. I NEED this type of relatable dramatic-comedy in my life!
HECK YEAH
I APPROVE
Sex and the city sis
She is American but she is half Burmese and half British...no American is fully American except for natives
!!!!!!!!!!
anybody else feel they’d be best friends with Ashley in real life
A beautiful yet immensely dangerous phenomenon; not only because of the fans showing up at their house and stuff, but because it might in a way become a substitute for forming "real" reciprocal relationships. But on a lonely night, I'll be dammed if I don't feel like I do have a friend behind a screen. It's odd.
yes, met her once but since she has moved to nyc I fully want to run into her one day and just become besties with her.
Yessss, was a really heartbreaking moment realising, I’m not :(
Ahaha some of these conversations feel so deep and close, more than I've ever had in real life even, I feel
Yesss Ashley lets be friends!!! Me you and kelly stamps can all hang out ^__^ I wish lol
You have an intelligent way of expressing things, especially psychological states. You're also really witty. And there's a great energy to your videos and they're stimulating and I love your honesty and humility and courage.
Perfectly said!
When I came out to my parents as bi, I KNEW they would be absolutely fine with it. I was certain I had nothing to be scared of, but when I finally decided to do it, and I gathered them into a room without anyone else, I couldn't even get out 4 words before I started crying. I was so lucky that their response was, "honey, that's awesome!" instead of literally anything else, but I was shaking. Internalized homophobia is so real.
So happy it went well for you! When I came out to my mum she made fun of me for falling for a Dutch girl than for falling for a woman 😂
@@wingsofescape I'm really sorry that happened. I hope it helps to know that there are people who are very kind and accepting no matter what you throw at them, and I'm sure you will meet some in time. Also, Dutch girls sound real pretty and I'm a little jealous I cant fall for one, too.
@@wingsofescape damn whats wrong with us dutch girls lmao
YES! It was only my mother at the time and I considered my sexuality in conversation with her (she had assumed I was a lesbian, I then identified as bi for a short time before finding out about pansexuality, which is a label I've used for years now), but for *years* (and even currently, if I'm honest) I would constantly think to myself that the only reason I thought I was bi or then pan was because I wanted to be trendy or quirky, despite the fact that my mother was supportive and I grew up in a (somewhat) inclusive household/area.
I never had to come out to my father (he was in prison whilst I was questioning, and my mother had told him herself), and I avoid coming out to extended family members to this day, despite the fact that I have LGBT+ family friends that they are perfectly supportive of, because I feel sick to my stomach at the thought. I'm so glad internalised homophobia is getting talked about in more conversations, because the only reason I realised it wasn't so widely known was because one of my best friends (one of the only straight people in my friendship group) laughed when I mentioned it because she didn't think it existed.
@@sasx4706 I mean aside from that one person's mother, I think you're safe. I'll vouch for you, at least.
This might sound weird but I'm 17 and becoming an adult literally terrifies me but watching you handle being an adult makes it a little bit less terrifying so thank you so much for that
As a 19 yo, the fear is real. And watching Ahsley has helped me feel more comfortable when I moved away from home.
i’m your age and i feel the same way
Me too
I'm 18 and trying to get into college and all that being _independent_ terrifies me but -im sorry but its true- seeing ppl actually feel that too kinda ease me :)

I feel this!!! like i'll be like oo damn she's hot aND has a cool personality but i can't tell if i'm in love or im just super jealous ?????
easy. can you imagine yourself dating them? can you imagine yourself having sex with them? if no then it’s just envy and idolisation

to all the bi girls with a preference for guys, you are loved and valid!

Okay, just make me cry while scrolling through RUclips comments why don’t you ♥️

Thank youu 💓💓
It's so nice to feel validated for once instead of being accused of being "fake bi" or straight or just confused ;-;
As a bi girl let me tell you it’s so valid to not be 50/50 most people aren’t. It’s also valid to only be sexually attracted to women and not romantically attracted. You. Are. Valid.
But wait can you still be bi if you are inly sexually attracted to women and less romantically attracted??
@@javiera2634 of course.
thank you; that's exactly what I think I am and I felt like such a fraud

I didn’t know that was ‘allowed’. I have dreams about women but I’m interested in guys and it’s so confusing!

Felt that
Literally omg, I live with 3 people and yet as soon as I'm alone I start talking to myself
This girl doesn't know how much she helped 17-year-old me, even I didn't realize it at the time. But she was an older-sister figure when I was living abroad with no friends and apart from my family. Watching her videos always felt like a cozy chat with an old friend, her perspective on things like sexuality(especially the shame that comes with being socialized as a woman), self-image, relationships, just anything, they really helped me connect with myself and my own thoughts and beginning to form a perception of who I am as a person. I'm very thankful for the time she spent on youtube, even if she decides that it isn't the medium for her anymore, because the footprint that she left is enough. Watching her old videos after a long time feels like a warm hug. Thank you, Ashley
Ashley talking about her sexuality and questioning it made me feel so like seen ??? Idk her experiences and the timid nature of it all just resonates with me.
I know right!?
BIG MOOD. It was so oddly therapeutic to hear her voice so many things that I also feel but am too scared to talk about with people who know me.
I feel the same way
this is exactly how I feel!
Highkey esp if you only realize like after the 20 yr old Mark it already feels like it’s “too late” to explore it or like you’re faking otherwise you would’ve done something sooner
Considering all the hate going on all over the internet, seeing a bunch of humans sharing kind messages to other humans through this comment section it's impressively uplifting
I know! it makes my heart feel so full.
Well then, SCREW YOU!! Hahaha....just kidding!! I thought your comment was very uplifting!! :-)
Yes
My therapist once said something to me that has really stuck with me and something you need to hear ashley: "happiness doesn't come from a place, you won't find it by moving away." So take what you will from that :)
Things will get better for you mentally, Ashley! Please don't beat yourself up. Be kind to yourself! It's okay not to be okay
I personally disagree. I'm someone who's happiness depends on where I live because my mental health is pretty good for the most part. So if I'm in a city environment where there aren't many plants or nature then I'm more likely to be upset and impatient with people. I really need the peace of nature and have "the boons" farmland, hiking trails go be very close to where I live. Also where I lived in the city had too many republicans so I didn't feel like I belonged lol.
I really liked that quote :) it’s like the grass is always greener on the other side situation

Having a kink doesn’t mean you aren’t a feminist. Feminism is not about all women living and thinking one way. It’s the freedom of choice. To choose for yourself how you want to be and live. Traditional or modern, stay at home mom or career gal, vanilla or kinky. It’s for you to decide. Not men, not society, and not other women. One way of thinking is not superior to another.
Thank you for the clarification!! 💯💯💯 agree

And then there‘s me: Sixteen years old, experiencing a global pandemic, living in a quite big city and I still haven‘t had my first date, kiss or boyfriend/girlfriend 🧚🏻♂️
Same! Some how I've been through a pandemic, but not a single relationship lol
DW about it, you gotta wait for the right person. You don't wanna lose ur first kiss to someone you don't really like or get too emotionally attached to someone who doesn't care abt u
It's gonna come very naturally dude, don't you worry. I didn't have my first kiss and relationship until I was 17, which was kinda weird, I felt kinda inexperienced but at the end was a great decision. Try to wait for someone who you're naturally drawn to, who really works well with you. The first kiss can suck tho, you should keep that in mind, tongues are awkward, but you'll learn to do it better with time.
Look it really isn't that big of a thing. I had my first kiss with 19. you really do not need to worry about it. I get that you might feel pressured bc i certainly did at age 16.
Aw that's still soooo young, it seems like it isn't but you'll be glaad it took awhile for you to be able to think properly before entering a relationship with someone else (being with yourself at that age is already too much to handle usually haha).
I got my very first kiss, sex, relationship with my now husband at 20 and at the time I thought it would never ever happen and out of no damn where when I wasn't looking for it at all.. it did.
I still wish I could go back and tell my past to chill the heck out ;}

Sarcastic Squareflake LEGIT! honestly Ashley and all the comments here are making me feel less lonely with this sexuality crisis were That voice in my head says “You’re not gay enough”
bi culture is having sexuality imposter syndrome 70% of the time :/
Same. Like I’ve liked girls before but at the same time when I look at women I can’t tell if I like or wanna be them so I feel so fake sometimes
i thought it was just me man-
bhahahah ME, I thought I was like 15% girls and 85% men and now I'm like 70% girls and 30% boys 😃
i’m so happy she talked abt her sexuality,, let’s me know that i’m not the only bi girl figuring it out rn
you're not alone *💕*
dude same
you definitely are not alone 💜
lmao me rn, at first I was positive I was gay, and then I was sure I was straight, and now I’m just confused
we should make a club for "bi girls trying to figure it out" because i would join in a second

the sparkly “vintage” text when you were talking about 2019 SENT ME
oh my gosh a bestdressed clothing line, i can’t even imagine how incredible that would be
i actually think I'm bi but sometimes my mind just goes like "you only think that bc it's 'trendy' nowadays" and idk how to handle this thought
That's a huge bisexual mood tbh, but just remember that you're totally allowed to be confused and conflicted and not super certain when it comes to your sexuality because people change and grow and you're definitely not just "doing it because its trendy" because that's not something you do by accident you know? Anyway, you're valid x
@@IvyBellwether this is exactly what I needed to hear. It's always a worry that if I say I am then I can't change my mind later or I'm fake and just 'wanted to be trendy'. :)
It’s completely normal to get intrusive thoughts but try to calm yourself down when you get them. It comes from internalized biphobia it’s an insecurity and we all have them it’s nothing to be ashamed of even if it’s not really pleasant. We were raised to think any love that isn’t heteronormative is wrong and/or invalid and it takes work to deconstruct all that in our brains. Love who you love as freely as you can and remember that you’re enough. And that goes to everyone we’re all enough, love is love❤️
a hickey from the universe Hijakced this reply thread to say I love your user name
@@IvyBellwether i love this! i'm straight but lately i've been wondering what if and questioning myself, but i'm scared i'd receive judgement if i ended up "staying straight" if that makes sense...
you are so brave to talk about your journey with questioning your sexuality while still questioning
Bisexuals can like men more than women and are still bisexual (hope this tip helps.)
Leianna Lutes exactly even if someone likes men 90% and woman 10% they are still bi and if they like woman 90% and men 10% they are still bi
Rose k yess !!!!! exactly
Yes!! Having a preference is totally valid and a very common thing with bisexual people, you're still bi either way!!
I've been trying to discover my sexuality if I'm bi or not. It's cos I like the idea of going on a date with a woman and all that cute shit but I cannot imagine myself getting turn on by woman like I'm more turn on by men than women. idkkk plss help
@@caveofmine9889 there's no pressure to figure it out! I went from 'if my soulmate was a woman I guess I wouldn't hate that' to 'i think I'd like to hold this girl's hand' to 'YES WOMEN ARE PRETTY MEN ARE PRETTY GIVE ME EVERYONE' over like three or four years. It might go in the same direction for you, or in the opposite one, but just relax and see what happens!
Ashley isn't self centered, she is expressing her feelings. Like a one-way thearpy session.
Why is knowing that “adults” and accomplished people also struggle with knowing their sexuality so freeing? I don’t know but I am crying :)

the part where you talk about bisexuality made me feel so safe and accepted ily so much ashley
I felt the same way, watching her videos is like a "safe space" for me :)
girl i have the exact same thing with bisexuality. its like im ashamed even though i see no problem being bi. idk man im just so confused bc calling myself straight doesnt feel right but calling myself bi feels like im an imposter or that im just doing it for male attention or bc its cool to be bi now (thats kinda a stretch but yea) anyway i think we should just now worry about labels and just feel love for whoever we want, dont stress it bby
THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT INTO WORDS OMG
C_ JPV wait I’m so happy people relate and I’m not alone!
Yess same!! It’s so “cool” to be bi now and I don’t wanna be perceived as fake. I’ve been out as bi to only a few friends for the past 13 years but I just so happened to meet a guy and fell in love with him and I’m still with him so I never got to see what the other side is really like aside from kissing one girl who I didn’t even like, she was just the only other bi chick in my small town😂 2 of my single girlfriends are come out as bi within the past 6 months and I’ve known them my whole life and I genuinely don’t trust them, I think they are just lonely and scared they’re gonna end up alone and a lot of our friends are gay and they think pride is cool and trendy. It honestly pisses me off. But I really feel like I struggle the most with coming out because I’m in a long term hetero relationship and I may never date again so I will never experience what it’s like to be with a women (which is fine, I’m ok with sacrificing that for a true life partner) and because I didn’t suffer for it, my gay friends were bullied as kids and I wasn’t because everyone thought I was straight so I don’t fee like part of the community.
i had to read through this twice because it describes my feelings so perfectly (also you flawless bitch,, kaz is indeed emo)
Gray Girl on the Water yes exactly I feel like I don’t really belong in the community because I never really had that experience also my straight friends also talk about how they are so “so gay” and “so woke” but are really the “don’t get a crush on me type” but ofc in their eyes I’m straight.
she seems like the exact type of friend i can easily have a conversation with thats kind of awkward but is really comfortable which is the absolute best
i feel the same! i'd love to have a friend like her
I miss Ashley so much but i understand that it became toxic for her but hopefully she returns back soon thriving!!🥺🥺❤️❤️
Ashley saying "I hooked up with a girl and that was... cool" felt so much like my best friend telling me about the girl she has a crush on, it made my heart hurt. Keep being awesome
As a bisexual, I’m here to say something!
You can have preferences! It doesn’t have to be 50/50!
You can especially feel like an imposter if you’ve never dated the same gender, y’know.
Bisexual is not gay or straight. It’s 100% bisexual!
Your valid no matter what! Happy Pride Month!
Exactly! And it's also fine if it changes! Some weeks I can't get enough of women and some weeks I prefer men, everything is alright and there's no box you have to fit in!!

There’s this saying in the Bah’ai Faith that goes “wherever you go, there you are.” And what that means is that we live our entire lives inside our heads, and that wherever you go, you’re you. There you are. And this can be positive and negative and anything in between. Changing your environment can help. But the only way out is through sometimes. We have to face our issues head on, without fear or trepidation, and solve them within ourselves before we can find peace. And we do that with community, with understanding, with care for our fellow human beings and for something bigger and more important outside of ourselves. And ourselves as well. We deserve love. And to love anyone else, it starts there. You can’t give someone else a life saving breathing device on a plane until you can give yourself that. You’re lovely. You’re worthy of love. And once you understand that, you can help the most people.
that's a wise comment

Oooh ooh with regard to bisexuality- look up the term “comp het” short for compulsory heterosexuality. It’s basically about how a lot of people are just more inclined to say they’re straight because they feel like it’s what’s expected of them or what they should be. I only even heard the term on a contrapoints video about it which is cool
Wow thanks for this comment, I’m going to actually search into this 😅✨
this is so me, thank you for commenting this I will search it up :)
from what i know, comphet or compulsory heterosexuality is actually an exclusive term for gay and lesbians. for bisexuals its internalized homophobia. :)
