"she runs away from a hookup because the woman looks too much like her horse" was a sentence i was not mentally or physically prepared to hear today

Just imagining a anthropomorphic horse girl now.
I read the title as "the big book of lesbian horror stories" and I got a whole 14 minutes into the video before I even questioned why there were so many horses and so few horrors.
I've had similar experiences due to my goo brain reading comprehension, so I feel that shit.
I mean, aren't horses a form of horror when you think about it
some people are terrified of horses so I guess it makes sense
i also read it like that and did not realise until reading this comment, after watching the entire video
This made me laugh out loud harder than I care to admit
lesbian girl and horse girl is a venn diagram I tragically wasn't aware of
As both I can attest there are more of us than you’d expect lmao
I was friends with a lot of horse girls when I was a kid (wasn't one myself tho), it definitely checks out.
it's almost a circle lmao
As someone who’s both I can tell you there are so many gays in the horse world

U-hauuul•*☆🏳️🌈
literally one of my closest and longest friendships started in the 3rd grade bc he was like "were best friends now" after knowing me for one day
and it's been like 12 years now so basically yeah lmaooo
when i was a camp counselor i had two six year olds who had never met decide within two hours that they were best friends and insisted on sharing a bed all week. I practically forced their parents to exchange contacts so the girls could stay best friends.
the proletariat uprising was not a theme I was expecting to be so consistent in a collection of lesbian horse girl stories, but, in retrospect, I should have
It's makes a lot of sense looking at the Era. Bad times
the secretariat uprising
I'vs never seen a character go from "How can we truly be free if we are enslaved by the chains of capitalism?
" to "How could I ever have thought, that devoting my life to the class struggle would satisfy me, when all I ever wanted was a career in the pictures?" without being judged for either. :)

I thought of the jojo stand cheap trick and honestly both makes me laugh
@@Cthulhuhues well, you see, the biggest secret all bisexuals keep is that we all have stands. Just don't tell anybody, alright.
You actually made me laugh out loud.
@@Cthulhuhuesbisexual trick,
Stand ability: cheap trick but two are in play at the same time, same rules as og cheap trick but both hosts have to stay within a 500m radius of eachother otherwise they'll die.
The tricks to defeating it is tricking it into making eye contact with the other host's cheap trick, causing them to collide and kill themselves, or locating and killing/incapacitating the stand user, or, in extremely dire circumstances, killing the hosts is a viable strategy.
Currently slowly reading part 4, haven't got to the cheap trick part yet so kinda guessed the rules of it😂
"you can can tomatoes, but you can't can the revolution" is the tagline of my upcoming book
i hope this line becomes a popular thing to say amongst anarchists

It's pretty fucking brilliant.
As a bisexual former weird horse girl, i am intensely interested in the connection between lesbians and horses 👀
As a lesbian who used to do horse back riding, same
As a sapphic who is still riding horses same
Strong lesbian here. I can only interact with honse.
As a sapphicly bisexual enby [clarification: I realised I was bi and incorporated it into my identity back when I thought I was a cis girl, plus I like presenting feminine, so I still vibe with the identity of sapphic even though I’m technically not a woman] who’s been doing horse riding for 6 years, same
Same
I thought the title was Lesbian HORROR Stories. I got so fucking confused as to why there were so many horses.
The Big Book of Lesbian Horror Stories honestly sounds like the book for me
I would seriously read that.
As someone who's afraid of horses, this was a horror anthology for me
@@BurningBlackScarlet horses are fucking terrifying
Horses are always a prelude to disaster.
Not knowing immediately whether to expect that the protagonists of this book would be lesbians who have horses or horses who are lesbians might be a sign that I’ve been watching too much anime…
No such thing.
Never such thing
I thought it might be a mix but was really hoping for lesbian horses.
I would totally read a book about lesbian horses
"horses who are lesbians" ah yes, my little pony
I’m literally obsessed with the fact that they give the horse cocaine and that the girl does every drug. This is the most 2000s, maybe ever!
yeah no if the gays™️ were socially accepted in 2005 my school would ABSOLUTELY have used that story to make us afraid of drugs

"Is she in the lesbian Illuminati?" is my favorite question.
Omg I once made a joke to my straight friend about how my ex gf "broke lesbian code" and he was genuinely concerned that lesbians are a cult
I read in a Women in Art History book that women who were artists often depicted horses as a sort of kinship. That the restrain depicted on the horses was meant to mirror society's restrain of their own natural abilities.
That's interesting, makes me wonder about the horse girl every class had in school

A forelock is the part of a horses mane that hangs on their forehead between their ears.
A fetlock is the little tuft of hair on a horse’s ankle.

“we get to read one whirlwind paragraph from the pov of the horse on cocaine” is not a sentence i was expecting to hear
I was never a horse girl but I’m absolutely obsessed with the concept of a Jewish horse that teaches scripture. It would have made prep for my bat mitzvah infinitely more interesting
It’s a shame the horse wasn’t granted smicha. Where in the Talmud does it say neigh to horse rabbis? Justice for Rav Apple 😔✊🐴
I’m so glad it’s apparently a common lesbian experience to be so insistent on ‘not being like the other girls’ when you’re a kid. because as it turns out, my ‘not like other girls’ phase was in fact just young me being confused af as a butch lesbian who had no idea what a lesbian even was 😭
Checks out tho with society pushing allocishetnormativity as the only acceptable way to be "a girl", anyone who doesn't fit there is technically "not a girl" so we go through a phase where we try to reclaim that identity. Growing up in the 2000s it's baffling how there was an expectation to think about "the dream man you're gonna marry in your beautiful dress".
@@ArturGlass.C and the pushback for taking note of the fact that you're different, and everyone knows it and so they all ostracize you by saying that you're being a narcissist for observing facts... I mean, I ultimately turned out not to be a girl, but even real girls who happen to be autistic (or queer, or even just a bullying victim) are really hurt by the "girls supporting girls! Female friendship, because all girls are good and can do no wrong!" stuff
@@ArturGlass.C in my late 20s I realized I was a femme who likes other femmes, but before then, my not like other girls phase revolved around horses, Emily the Stange and Tim Burton movies. I still love the movies, but I get the criticism of him too

Weirdly though, pansexuality originally meant attraction to everything including plants and animals (Freud was fucked up) so you aren't wrong actually
This book really took the "lesbian relationships move fast" stereotype to a whole new level.

Honestly if I wrote a collection of lgbt stories like this set in different time periods I'd confusingly have the characters use different old-timey terminology in every single story. Uranians here, Third Sex there, Inverts in that one, Urnings in this, etc.
Please let me know if it gets done as that is my kind of nerdification. Don't forget the omi-palones.
Honestly, I'm intersex and Bi and don't know as a writer who wants to write a mlm couple if I should since terms change every decade not going to lie.
@@mykaruest3620 You mean you don't want to have the story feel dated?
If that's the case I see a few possible solutions:
-Set it in a specific time period and just use the terms of that time period, then it feels dated but only because it's supposed to be
-Avoid terms and labels altogether (and probably in service to that don't include queerphobia as a major thing in text), just depict the relationship (for an example of how to do this look at Yuri On Ice or Call Me By Your Name)
-Set it in a futuristic or fantasy world where the terms are different or not present at all, as a bonus to this strategy is the chance to explore how terms shape perceptions in the first place and what is seen as queer or not in different societies
@@eoincampbell1584 i love the last idea
@@mykaruest3620 Write anyway! Tbh, the stuff that makes any story fail to age well is rooted in bigotry. E.g., the thinly-veiled reference to Lisa Vogel (TERF extraordinaire) in the final horse lesbian story flew in 2002 but not today, several years after MichFest closed because people were no longer willing to ignore its 40-year commitment to TERFdom.
Your story is worth telling. If you feel terms or technology need adjustment to fit your chosen time period, that can be fixed in editing.

Jokes aside, I appreciate you acknowledging the pulp fiction ending trend of “homosexuality is bad” because that’s the only way gay content could get published. I’ve seen a shocking amount of young people not understanding that it wasn’t that long ago when all gay people were fearful of their lives. Gay relationships in the media were only “accepted” fairly well in the 90s in the US, and it’s been less than 10 years since gay marriage has been legalized. Really less than 10 years since LGBT people became more loved than reviled. I think a lot of people don’t realize that it wasn’t that long ago that there was no good queer media representation. Queer pulp fiction is honestly the best that queer people could get for a long time.

yes, "Woman identifying woman" is really terfy. you should quickly notice the implied replacement of either of those instances of "woman" with, well, "man" as description of other existing groups. but yeah that and the bi nonsense is definitely the main parts that really date this book.

@@ArturGlass.C it's sort of like saying "Instead of man identifying as a woman, I'm a woman who identifies as a woman, a real one." That's the only reason someone would say that, I'm pretty sure.
I was gonna comment about my first proper gf being such a horse girl (a goth one at that) and something something lesbians and horses.

In the early 2000s, there was a HUGE fad of sapphic pulp novel imitations. It was one of the genres where we could just have fun for fun’s sake. Sapphic media was really pretty limited, but we got some truly delightful media from that era, like the Incredibly True Story of Two Girls In Love, But I’m a Cheerleader, and comics like Dykes to Watch Out For (which is where the Bechdel test came from).
I’m now realizing there are adults who weren’t born yet when this happened, and I’ve never felt older in my life.
(I’m also old enough that I think it’s necessary to note that I’m trans, not a cis guy who was just really into early 2000s lesbian culture.)
I thought the title was a mispelling of "lesbian horror stories."
Nope it says "Horse," and I don't know what else I was expecting
Just want say, as an old fart to all the kids, that's a Grateful Dead shirt. Lots of people complimenting it but no one seems to know what is. It's a pretty appropriate shirt for the horse on drugs chapter lol
Holy shit it is I didn't notice!
"What to you know about horses?!" is a great pickup line.
I know barely anything about horses, but it would still work.
When you claimed that the old woman was the chick from Satan Was A Lesbian I deadass thought you were serious and briefly wondered how they got the rights to the character since there's no way that book is in the public domain yet.
If the publisher doesn't exist anymore, then no one will defend the copyright tbh
Are horse girls a more or less marginalized and oppressed group than tall girls?
horse girls are more oppressed than tall girls for sure
The L Word taught me that true lesbians don't want horses, they want pet monkeys. I'm terrified of monkeys. Thank you for giving me hope as I was an avid pony pals reader at a young age and was obsessed with horses.
Not so much anymore, as I am terribly allergic.
@person person 🦍aye brother
Dude, old pulp fiction stories are wild sometimes. Most of them are basically ok but every now and then you get one that just drops some white supremacy on you as casually as starting a story with "once upon a time..." As though a reader living when the story was written would be expected to respond to the key conflict with "Ah, yes! Of course the Atlantean mummy-wizard is working to bring down civilization so that the brown & yellow races can take over - that makes perfect sense!"
And yes. That was an actual story I listened to on RUclips. I can't remember the title but that was indeed the central conflict. Oh, and there was a "magic potion" the villain was basically analogous to opium, and most of the story was set in an opium den. I'm positive there was anti-semitism sprinkled in too and I just didn't know what to listen for so I missed it.
