I know there are some punk rock/gothic girls who ARE lesbians, but why do most of them seem like they wear the rainbow flags and claim lesbianism just for attention? I've had several of these girls in high school (none of them were really gay or bisexual but just using it for attention).

And please, no "well I'm a punk rocker and I'm a lesbian" comments. I already know there are rocker/gothic girls who are lesbians. I'm just asking why so many of the straight ones use it as a means of getting attention.
mature answers only please.

i've never heard of this but i know many girls pretend to be bisexual to look cool and tease men. that's just nasty especially when they are feeling each other up in clubs and snogging for attention then everybody says 'oh they said they are bisexual' they labels us 'real' bisexuals like that and think that we do that. that is one reason why the bi community are labelled as promiscuous when actually many are not and are very fussy with who they date

e.g. 'me' that's why i've been single for over a year because i have high standards

i wish the goth girl i like was a lesbian haha.

i dunno why they do it, maybe its just coz they think it makes them even more different or something
