What does it mean to be a lesbian? What does it mean to be a lesbian that has sex with men?
What does it mean to police the boundaries of the sexual orientation of others?
In her latest video "Lesbians Explain: Sleeping With Men," vlogger Arielle Scarcella interviews several women that identify as lesbian -- but that also enjoy having casual sex with men.
Offering explanations such as, "I've sort of perfected the art of compartmentalizing sex from feelings," "I don't know enough lesbians who are willing to have casual sex," and "This isn't really something that I tell my lesbian friends -- I tell my queer friends because they get it," these women engage in an important discussion about what it means to embody a sense of fluidity in your sexual identit, and to live outside of solidified identity categories in terms of sexual orientation.
Be sure to watch the video all the way to the end -- Scarcella herself makes an appearance to ask viewers their perspectives on the opinions and identity labels of these three women. Check out the clip above and join the discussion!
