Rules…
I would not. A man is the reason I have permanent brain injury, ptsd, and permanent loss of some fine motor. I know women can be cruel too, but I don’t think the extent of the damage would be the same if such a thing were to occur. (I deleted a whole paragraph after this blaming myself for my motivation at the time and making bad choices. Still a bit ashamed than any of it happened.)
Tl;dr “no”
I'm bi, but I've only really been with women since I'm pretty much invisible to men. So I'd choose to just be a lesbian so I wouldn't have to worry about how men perceive me.
probably not, tbh; this question reminds me a little of political lesbianism within second wave feminism
You mean what we called LUGs when I was in school?
I've never heard of the term "LUG", but I am vaguely familiar with the idea that some women feel free to have sex or relationships with women until they graduate and then intend to marry a man.
However, this is very different from political lesbianism, which is basically when a small group of extremist feminists suggested that men are inherently bad, all penetrative sex is inherently violence against women, and as a result heterosexual relationships are immoral and all women should be ethical lesbians (i.e. choose to only be in relationships with women for moral & political reasons).
This is of course not how human sexuality works, and political lesbianism failed. These ideas were connected to separatist movements in second wave feminism, the ideas of women forming their own separate, utopian society away from men and so on.
