someone in a group chat said sapphic basically means lesbian-lite and that pan people using it is confusing.
i'm pan. i date women a lot. sapphic feels like home on days i need community language. am i stepping on something.

you're fine. sapphic is the umbrella on purpose. bi and pan folks who are into women use it constantly.

thank you. the "confusing" comment stuck in my teeth all day.

anyone policing pan sapphics usually wants lesbian-only spaces and won't say that out loud. you didn't invent a problem.

i'm bi and sapphic. both labels do different jobs. orientation vs community umbrella.

if someone is confused they can ask one question. they don't get to revoke your words.

keeping both. deleting that group chat maybe.
