You should have just been home in bed

Look here. If you are teenage lesbians, travelling home on the Frankston-line train at 12:30am Sunday morning, here are a few tips;

- If you insist on canoodling for the benefit of the country bumpkins in the next carriage, please try to refrain from putting your hands down each other's pants and rubbing your groins. Some people just want to get home, not watch a full blown peep show.

- Ok, so I know that the country bumpkins were quite rude to stare; given that they had probably never seen lesbians before, let alone teenage ones, you can hardly blame them. However, you were probably within your rights to be pissed off that they kept staring at you when you were originally minding your own business. And when they indicated their disapproval, you were probably well within your rights to wave at them, and exclaim "And they vote!!"

- However, given that you were all 'equal rights for teenage lesbians', I don't think the following was appropriate:

1. When the two Japanese guys got off the train, you obnoxiously waved and spoke in made up Japanese to them. They couldn't have cared less about your PDA. Teenage lesbians are so 1999 to them. So, apart from being quite rude, and somewhat racist, you then had the temerity to turn around to their friends, who were staring incredulously at you, and start talking your ridiculous langauge to them.

2. When the obviously homeless guy boarded the train with all of worldly possesions in a basket on the back of his bicycle, this was not a cue for you to start sniggering and exclaiming loudly that smelly people should not be allowed to board public transport. Imagine the uproar should people start calling for the ban on teenage lesbians on PT. I'm sure you'd put those smart mouths to use should that ever happen.


Now,don't get me wrong; I'm a big fan of lesbians. I'm a big fan of teenage ones. I'd sign a petition to let you ride on trains anyday. However, I think you have to learn that if you're going to get riled because society discriminates or judges you for your sexuality, then you really shouldn't be judging other people. Just because you are part of a 'glamourous' minority, doesn't give you the right to judge other social minorities for who they are.

And luvvies, you weren't glamourous.
