A cis lesbian? Or was that the joke?

I feel like a boomer.

Cis - The word word cisgender (often shortened to cis; sometimes cissexual) describes a person whose gender identity corresponds to their sex assigned at birth.

Lesbian - denoting or relating to women who are sexually or romantically attracted to other women, or to sexual attraction or activity between women

Thanks, I somehow assumed it also meant straight.

I have seen it said and written cishet for cisgender and heterosexual and it can run together when reading or speaking it.

Ok thanks, I was trying to get my head around someone who’s straight and also gay, and all I could come up with was “Republican??”

She likes em young...

(Btw i was about to add a fbi-catch-this-pedo meme image, but let's be honest, by now they basically work for them)

I believe they were going to add a meme about having the FBI catch the person who likes to "date" young individuals, but the commenter realized that the FBI now works for pedophiles, so they probably wouldn't be very helpful in this joke scenario.

I'm not sure of their intent, but probably something to do with the person in the image being Frieren, who is canonically several thousand years old. Perhaps the joke was that anyone Frieren would be dating (who isn't an elf) would be the equivalent of an infant from a relative age perspective. Or maybe they're just lost and confused idk.

I do see a lot of shipping of Frieren and Fern, which I'm not very comfortable with even once Fern turns 18.

I always got sorta queer platonic vibes for Frieren and Fern's relationship. Like they aren't romantic, but they are definitely very close, but also not in a purely platonic way. Fern clearly sees Frieren as a powerful educated teacher, but is also more emotionally mature than her in some ways. By the end of the first season I see them more as equals, at least emotionally. Given Frieren's apparent aroace orientation, any closeness between the two would necessarily fall outside traditional romantic or sexual relationships, so people shipping the two are pretty much ignoring who the characters are to satisfy their own desires. Also it's just kinda gross because they do have a master apprentice relationship, which would make any shipping pretty rapey, age difference notwithstanding.
