A fun post on search terms

Just for fun, here is a little post on the search terms that people use to land on my blog.

WordPress allows me to download a database of all the search terms that caused searchers to land here. In 2017, the top 10 most common search terms were:

Purplesagefem
peak trans
purple sage feminist
danielle muscato
purple sage fem
yourporn
mtf vagina
i want a vagina
mtf pussy
what is it like to have a vagina

I really enjoy being a destination for people who type “peak trans,” but I could really do without the constant porn searches and searches for MtF genitalia.

In porn-related searches, people often ask how girls get recruited for porn. That’s because of my posts on the documentary Hot Girls Wanted where I wrote about recruitment. There are also lots of searches for “lesbian” porn, searches for rape, (including searches for specific types of people being raped), and random strings of words for genitals. Some of these search terms for specific genitals are really gross and objectifying toward people who have medically transitioned. Many of the porn searches are horrifying, unprintable, and make me want to burn down the whole world. Porn searches are always full of misspelled words, which makes me wonder if people are typing with one hand. Either that, or people are just dumb. People are gross and dumb. Anyway, I’ve gotten bored of the porn searches, and I don’t wish to dwell on them. Here are some other interesting tidbits.

Interestingly, there are always people searching to find information about lesbians and periods, often wondering whether we even get them.

do lesbians got periods
does lesbians have a period
lesbians dont need periods
how to get periods for lesbian
lesbians talking about there periods
lesbian have periods like girls
what pills lesbians use in order to stop going for periods
do butch lesbians go on their periods
do gay girls have mensuration
if am a lesbian how do i stop menstruation
what stops menstruation permanent if u r lesbian

People have other curiosities about lesbians, like where we hang out and what our sex was like in specific decades:

do lesbians hang out in public restrooms?
how do lesbians grow beards
1960s beehive lesbians
1930s lesbiansex
lesb sex 1960

Some people search for guidance after reaching “peak trans”:

why the fuck do i have to play your pronoun game
danielle muscato is not a woman
genderbread nonsense
trans activists are erasing women
i am a terf

Some people search my name plus another search term, apparently wanting my opinion on something. (I’ll take that as a compliment, thanks!)

purplesage gender
purple sage clothing
cis privilege purple sage

Some people search for radical feminism (yeah!):

giving up porn radical feminism
woman identified woman
woman identified woman concept
woman-identified woman definition
sexualization of women capitalism
mra sad pathetic losers

Some people are just bizarre:

chew your clit off transgender
women peeing her pants legos
floating lesbians sex
male and female having lesbian sex
transvestite dog walking porn

This person probably isn’t seeing much “virgina” in real life:

visible and understandable image of a virgina

Gosh, these are fun. I’m particularly curious about “floating lesbians sex”. Does this person want to see lesbians having sex while floating? In air, or in water? Hmmm….

If I had to name the most interesting thing about my (non-porn-related) search terms though, it’s that lots of people seem to be unsure of whether lesbians have normal female bodies. Yes, we do! We have periods like other women. Aside from the fact that we are attracted to women, everything about us is typical.

    • From Gloria Steinem’s essay, “If Men Could Menstruate:”

      “Men would convince women that intercourse was more pleasurable at “that time of the month.” Lesbians would be said to fear blood and therefore life itself – though probably only because they needed a good menstruating man.

      “Of course, male intellectuals would offer the most moral and logical arguments. How could a woman master any discipline that demanded a sense of time, space, mathematics, or measurement, for instance, without that in-built gift for measuring the cycles of the moon and planets – and thus for measuring anything at all? In the rarefied fields of philosophy and religion, could women compensate for missing the rhythm of the universe? Or for their lack of symbolic death-and-resurrection every month?

      “Liberal males in every field would try to be kind: the fact that “these people” have no gift for measuring life or connecting to the universe, the liberals would explain, should be punishment enough.”

  1. 😂😂😂 There is no doubt in my mind that transvestite dog walking porn is a thing. 😵🤢

    I really like the idea of someone sitting at their computer and typing in “I am a terf” in the search box. 😊

    As for lesbians and menstruation, I prefer to think that the person typing that was told lesbians don’t menstruate and thought “Come on, that’s bullshit right?” And that’s why they searched it. 😌

  2. Well, I did quit having my periods because they are rather annoying, but that’s not the ‘natural way’ which incidentally is why I made that decision. I wouldn’t have stopped having something without having it in the first place.

    But seriously, why would I hang out in a restroom? I much prefer more comfortable surroundings.

  3. That’s an awesome catalogue of some of the weirder parts of the internet. I have to say if I got a query ‘do lesbians hang out in public restrooms’ and especially if it was to my face, I couldn’t help myself, I’d be ‘oh yes, busted! That’s where we mix our menstrual blood with our armpit hair to create spells that ensure the lesbian mafia (TM) continue our world domination. If you should happen to stumble across us when we are weaving our magic through the elemental levels of the universe, you should leave that public restroom immediately. Especially if you have small children. So glad we sorted that one out – have a good evening 🙂 ‘

    I’ve actually had someone ask me the ‘can a man and a woman have lesbian sex’ (no trans questions involved) and I was like ‘oh yes, when the man’s died and been reincarnated as a female cockroach or whatever, then he can totally have lesbian sex with female cockroaches – hope this helps!’ This was a man asking and it turned out he didn’t want to die for the lesbian sexy times. What a loss…

      • I have a cookbook from the 70s that has ‘spells / recipes’ back to the Malleus Maleficarum (hammer of the witches – evil religious shit from 1487 justifying burning witches) (which I read and those 70s witches and their cookbook were spot on) and it specifically expects ‘freshly plucked armpit hairs’ 🙂

        Rather hilariously, (it must be a monk / religious thing) there’s no expectation that the menstrual blood needs to be fresh (eewwww) 🙂

        Must have slipped through radar… they were probably too busy burning witches 😦

  4. I really needed to have a good laugh today. Thanks for sharing. Some people really are quite bizarre…..transvestite dog walking porn? I wonder what else their search pulled up? On the other hand best not go there. Ugh!

  5. Some of those search terms are really bizarre! I’ve had my fair share of weird and creepy ones too, many coming from my post “Historical fiction and body hair.” Do these people bother reading the preview text on the page of search results before clicking? If they had, they’d see the post or blog in question is anything but a porn site!

    I loved the pronoun game search term. I’m sure we’ve all asked that question over and over again in recent years.

  6. This is the first post of yours I’ve read (so far…!). I searched ‘gender’, interested to find blogs which might chime with my own. However, I’m not too sure whether to venture further into your blog, if the search terms are accurate…
