#TBT: 10 Amazing Lesbian Pop Culture Moments

Because life is hard and you deserve to smile.

Happy Thursday, queer babes. Is it me, or does everyone seem extra insane and annoying as of late? It kind of seems like the very fabric of our humanity is unraveling.

So clearly, the only way to deal with whatever planet is in retrograde (something has to be) is to round up the 10 gayest pop culture moments. Because we love being gay. And we love pop culture. And I love you, dear lesbians. Please destress and enjoy.

10. Madonna kissing Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera at the 2003 VMAs

I’ve never felt more nostalgic for the early 2000s than I do right now. My 10-year-old gay ass LIVED FOR THIS MOMENT. And then Missy Elliot making an appearance right after the kiss makes it even gayer. The kiss happens at 3:40 but you should really watch the whole thing and scream-sing “Like A Virgin.” I’d also be such a slut for Madonna in menswear.

9. Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl”

Okay I know this song is all types of problematic but it is a f*cking BANGER pop song. And when I was a half-closeted baby dyke high school freshman, it felt sort of heartening to hear. And have you ever seen what happens when this song is dropped at a gay party? Everyone loses their shit in the best way.
