Brah we gotta stop using “gay panic” to mean “haha character getting flustered over realizing they’re gay” bc “gay panic” refers to a legal defense for murdering gay people https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_panic_defense

If I see a comic with a character going “oh am I gay??????” with “gay panic” attached to it one more time I’m gonna lose my mind. That phrase doesn’t mean what you think it does

I’d actually like it if people rt’d the first tweet bc I see that phrase misused everywhere and I very much doubt all the lgbt artists who write captions like that on their art are doing that knowingly

I gotta mute this thread bc my phone is now going crazy lol if you comment or smth and you want me to see it just dm me
