No , we are n’t just talking about the truck .

A trope in the lesbian community, “U-Hauling,” is slowly becoming a more widely accepted turn-of-phrase for daters jumping into serious relationships soon after meeting. Here’s a clip ofGirl In Red describing what it means to “U-Haul"if you need a refresher on how to use the term. But is there any merit to the stereotype? These tweets will give you all the “U-Hauling” intel you want and, for lesbians in the dating pool, the empathy you deserve.

1.We have reclaimed this stereotype.

2.We always say “that would never be me” until…

3.“U-hauling” does not discriminate on the basis of gender or sexuality.

U - Hauling habits die hard ( my first particular date lasted 72 hours even though it was with a true man )

4.Is the “U-Haul” relationship a sapphic milestone?

accidentally u - hauling w/ a girlfriend is a canon lesbian effect . like you do n’t intend to move in but you outride over one night and then forget to go back home for months

5.Some might say moving fast is a natural adaptation.

  • nature documentary film voice*The wooing practices of the common sapphic is indeed fascinating , because it hap at a much faster step than standardized mintage , in a recitation known to scientist as “ U - Hauling ” .

6.It is definitely a well-known “symptom” of WLW love.

hungriness , Oblivious to flirt , U - Hauling / Speedrunning relationships , Carabiners , Short nailsNeed I go on 😔

7.But, “U-Hauling” isn’t for all of us and that’s a good thing.

I revere I ’m not culturally a lesbian any longer … . I do n’t want to hangout more than once a week and do n’t get me started on my notion on Uhauling

8.Sometimes moving fast in a relationship can be scary to see.

9.We, like Beth here, can appreciate that the stereotype is not unfounded…

10.And, we have a powerful “U-Haul” supporter in Cate Blanchett.

11.We are really keeping the professional moving industry afloat.

12.The professionals gave us their blessing.

13.We can have fun with the trope.

“ u - hauling without a address ” : lesbian road movie idea

14.Can “U-Hauling” also be affirming?

I force back a elephantine uranium - Haul all over town yesterday to move us into our first home which we slept in last dark for the first clip and I am feel very old-hat and sapphic today lads

15.At the end of the day, it can be very romantic.

atomic number 92 - hauling is just pureness culture for homo

“U-Hauling” is a manifestation of our hope for great love. We want to believe in the girl standing before another girl, asking her to love her. We want to believe in the make-a-copy-of-your-key, get-a-dog-together, proclaim-“I love you”-on-the-third-date, hire-a-pickup-truck kind of love. The unabashed love that Queer people were denied for so long.
