ElloSteph
I found her on YouTube after just searching "lesbian" (original, right?). After wading through tons of strange lesbian videos, I found ElloSteph doing a game called "Lesbians or Sorority Sisters" where she had fellow queer girls answering whether the two girls in various photos were lesbians or sorority sisters. She has plenty more videos like this, so check her out.
