This has been a good year for sapphics!
Queer women are often left out of the conversation and aren’t well represented in pop culture, but that’s all starting to change. This year has been full of iconic moments from sapphic celebs and straight women who also made us weak in the knees.
So far in 2025 there have been weddings, relationship hard launches, sexy dances, and viral livestreams to feed our hunger for lesbian content.
We have been well fed this year!
