A. The shirt itself goes very hard.
B. Usually I roll my eyes when people talk about the whole “Alpha/Beta Energy” BS, but this actually has me rethinking that entire POV. Sometimes just being brave enough to be yourself, whether it’s in the deep south or anywhere else, takes a lot of balls. ❤️
Imagine an overweight middle aged man wearing a shirt that says “moustache rides: $5”.
Yea, not exactly alpha, huh?
Right, but this isn’t that.
This is a pack of lesbians in the deep south, not giving a fuck about what anyone thinks, even as the country is being driven towards civil war by uptight fundamentalists who hate freedom.
They’re out to have a good time and enjoy themselves instead of looking to everyone else to see how they can judge them and insert themselves into everyone else’s business. Looks like an easy going group of freedom loving Americans with a good sense of humor.
Context matters, so pretty fucking alpha in my book 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I mean, that was my takeaway. If everyone knows and accepts that you like pussy, then wearing a shirt that says “I ❤️ pussy” is just kinda skeevy, if not wildly inappropriate. If you’re in a place where people either deny your sexual orientation exists or don’t want your orientation to exist, then you’re a badass for being explicit about what you like, and I’m comfortable with light applause.
They’re in the French Quarter. She could be looking off camera and smirking at somebody yelling in a megaphone while telling her she’s going to burn in hell, or a middle aged guy in a mustache rides t-shirt raising his cup to her bc he admires the game. Coin toss.
Fair. Weirdly, I’ve been one of those dudes with the megaphone lol.

Why would you assume she was gay, if it wasn’t obvious from the shirt?
Edit: possible i misread, and we’re actually agreeing. Didn’t realize you weren’t the person being responded to.
Couple of them have a certain stereotype outlook. As a gay I have an eye for that.
Well, in case you were being serious, the point i was responding to was the ‘if it’s obvious to everyone that she’s gay, then wearing a shirt with a shirt boating about it is somehow a little cringe’.
My point was both that just because someone looks stereotypically gay doesn’t mean they are, so it’s fair to wear a shirt proudly admitting it, even if it is a little over the top. The earlier comment about it being similar to sometimes Uncle wearing a shirt offering ‘mustache rides’ is completely off the mark since that is more of a crude case of a man trying to either boat about his manliness, or defect implications that he’s gay.
These shirts are basically leaning into the ‘f-you, this is who i am’, unless they were specifically wearing them to a lesbian meet up hoping to impress other girls with the words on their shirt. If that were the case then it would match almost exactly to the mustache rides example.
No worries.
Do lesbians travel in packs? I typed it into Google and for the first time in a while, it did not return an AI result. The most common mention of more than one lesbian congregating is in a “group.” I’ll ask my lesbian friends if there is preferred nomenclature for a gathering.
You: Has lesbian friends, and yet doesn’t know the answer already by observation.
Instead you asked a search engine that you were expecting an AI answer from.
There is a LOT going on here.
As a WLW, I believe the technical term for a group of lesbians is “roommates.”

Nice! My comment was a joke, but it didn’t land as such. I’m still going to ask my friends what they prefer, but after a few drinks, because it is a joke query to begin with.
‘Lesbians wearing shirts about sex during Pride month are just like straight dudes wearing shirts about sex any time’ is incredibly kneejerk and poorly reasoned, you can do better than this.
Gotta disagree with you in this particular case. Living here I see a lot of novelty sex shirts 24/7/365. Constant parties and groups of bachelor or bachelorettes. I usually don’t think twice about it.
I have to give points for:
A. Originality. I’ve seen ‘I <3 milfs’ a million times before, but can’t recall ever seeing this one. I imagine if Kenny Powers opened up a novelty T-shirts store in Daytona Beach, he would sell this shirt and attempt to trademark it.
B. Unexpectedness. When I first saw this, I was scrolling through several other pictures and hit this one. It was like rounding a corner and being taken by complete surprise. The randomness of the shirt combined with the person wearing it, and the look on her face, elicited a genuine “Guffaw,” followed by me simply holding up my phone in response to the group of people I was with asking “What?”
It simply would have been too difficult to convey the complexity of the image into words, and all 6 people had a similar speechless reaction.
C. Rather than simply making a statement, it encourages one to really stop and think.
It sounds like you’re in agreement with the comment above yours.
The comment seems to be saying they could do better? I sincerely believe this is one of the best novelty t-shirts I have ever seen. I guess I’m maybe looking at this from a different POV?
Idk if you’ve heard of Krewe du Vieux Carré? Usually just called Krewe du Vieux, or sometimes just affectionately called Krude. It’s a Mardi gras Krewe that has a parade every year through the FQ. The point is supposed to be over the top adult humor, and that vibe has always been extended to the quarter in general, especially other neighborhood parades and celebrations.
I would shake my head at someone wearing something like this to the zoo or even an uptown parade, but in context this is like wearing a satirical costume.
The FQ during a parade or festival is one place where you would see a guy in a mustache rides shirt and nobody would judge/think twice bc there’s a hundred other dudes in mustache rides shirts or other crude outfits. Fewer women, but it happens occasionally if they are with a bachelorette party. I’ve seen gay dudes wearing crude shirts, but I cannot recall ever seeing a lesbian in a shirt that somehow openly conveys sexuality and captures the same level of crude. Honestly believe this is kind of a masterpiece and would like to grab drinks with this person bc they look like they would be fun AF to hang out with.
Because that (Hypothetical.) man probably actually thinks like that. This is just a group of women being funny.
You don’t have to like it.
Don’t yuck their yum & harsh their mellow, shamer.
