Notes:

Somebody's been spamming the submissions post with old secrets, apparently (for what actual purpose, I'm not sure). Just give me a heads up and I'll take the repeats down.

Someone once explained it to me like this -

1. By taking the girl out of sex and having it be two men, lesbian writers are creating a total escapism fantasy because there is no woman for them to project themselves on to or identify with physically. Being lesbians, male/female sex isn't something they enjoy participating in and reading or writing male/female sex may not be attractive to them because they might instinctively identify with the woman, but that doesn't mean they dislike all penetrative sex.

2. We're conditioned to believe that only women want to talk about their feelings and that men don't. So writing a male/male relationship allows women to explore the idea of men sharing their feelings where they're not being coaxed to by a woman. Because the idea that our gender should get used to not being allowed to share our feelings with men isn't a pleasant one. This applies to all women, not just lesbians, because we (nearly) all have men in our lives who we wish would communicate with us about personal issues more clearly.

3. Penetrative sex involves the woman being penetrated (ignoring pegging here for the sake of argument). We're both conditioned to believe our role in life is to have children, yet informed that we shouldn't be openly sexual because it's not ~ladylike (slut shaming, basically). While this is something we (women) are informed is our lot in life, for men they're conditioned to believe they should be the ones penetrating during sex (meaning the images we're bombarded with of sex are nearly entirely heterosexual). So seeing a man being in the 'submissive' position in bed allows women to explore their expected role from a different perspective.

I've had a few of what you said explained to me before, I think it's interesting, but I still don't "get it" in a way. I mean intellectually I do, but a part of me is still confused.

I think it's because a woman being in a fantasy never bothers me because it's a fantasy. Just because they are female it doesn't mean they are anything like me or that I have to project my issues upon them.

I also do not fit into my proper gender role nor do I really believe in the bullshit women get fed to them on a daily basis.

But as I said I don't have to get it, it's not harming me if a few lesbians want to write some slash.
