New York Post declared that dressing like a lesbian is fashion’s newest trend. Attached to the tweet was a recent article published by the news outlet, in which it declared that womenswear is “leaning toward the stereotypical lesbian look”.
The article published by The Post referenced an essay written by queer author Jill Gutowitz for Harper’s Bazaar. In the poignant excerpt from her new book, Girls Can Kiss Now, Gutowitz reflects on how the mainstreaming of lesbian fashion has validated her own queer identity, while also making her feel resentful that for so long lesbians were unable to appear visibly androgynous.
The article was an insightful tribute to fashion and identity. However, the Post’s aggregation of the essay has sparked backlash for reducing the queer experience into a trend for straight women to adopt. “‘Dressing like a lesbian’ is the sexy and ‘powerful’ new fashion trend,” the tweet read.
Since being shared Tuesday, the social media post has received more than 2,000 replies and more than 7,000 quote tweets.
