How could you possibly know that?

Only she knows.

The only female she has ever been "attracted" to is a girl in America who she has never met, she is attracted to yaoi and one of her claimed special interestes is cross-dressing males.
Sounds like a regular fangirl to me, not a lesbian

A review by one of the folks sums it up perfectly:

“What worries me about Yahoo! buying Tumblr is how it would choose to incorporate the website into its email and homepage features.  One of the reasons why Tumblr is so unique is because it’s a niche market.  By adding more users who don’t fit into this niche, it would make it more difficult for communities to develop within Tumblr, and Tumblr would have to change to accommodate these new users.  Tumblr as a website is not the kind that you can sign up for in a day and be on your way.  It is a website crafted so that you can immediately post but must spend several weeks, sometimes even months, to build a community.  With new users who would not be willing to spend time growing a community, Tumblr would have to be changed, which would alienate its current users.  Those users have spent time and effort to make Tumblr what it is today, and they are the ones who spend time on the website daily.  A user who is checking onto Tumblr because it’s attached to their homepage is not going to be as strong of a user nor as dedicated.  By changing the website to suit this new user, you would lose the strong users while building an undedicated usership. 

To any website that would think of buying Tumblr, they must understand that it is a website that cannot be changed to make it more user friendly to a casual blogger.  I think that many Tumblr users would be less worried about a buy-out if they were promised that their communities and ways of using Tumblr would not be changed.  No one is going to mind Yahoo! buying the website and gaining a few extra million dollars per year from the minimal advertising; what we will be upset with is if a company like Yahoo! then changes the website to increase casual users and decrease dedicated users.  Yahoo! would gain nothing by losing this “cool” group of bloggers in an age group they so desperately want to reach, so they must cater to these individuals by leaving the website exactly as is.”

[Yosher]

how does one murder something that's already dead

personally i would not mind tumblr being closed. at least it'd stop a bunch of hipster friends from desperately trying to prove how edgy they are

[Scorch]

There are idiots on all websites, just because hipsters are on tumblr doesn't make it a horrible website that deserves to be destroyed. I mostly use it to subscribe to my favorite artists, because they are more active on it than on deviantart. It would suck if tumblr was sold and whored out to idiots. People that use it as an actual blog, and not a second facebook, would have to find another place to post their creations, or what ever else they do.

I lost faith in tumblr

Bullstuff, that's like saying that we need to keep the BL community small.

By saying that Tumblr is a niche community it makes it seem like you're little forgettards who won't go open to anybody else but you, like a boy saying 'no girls allowed' into his fort.

Dont be stupid.

Tumblr is not a niche market, sounds like a typical hipster cigarette. Like every single highschool girl uses tumblr and a majority of people that use the internet for things other than email know of it. Also I like how most of your evidence comes from tumblr posts. They are most certainly known for their trustworthiness, aren't they? Oh wait they're not, because it's usually a highschooler wiht no knowledge of anything making handicapped speculation.
