i truly hate the word “queer.” i hate that what was originally a reclamation became a commodification. it is not more progressive than any labels in lgbt. i’m not giving cishets an extra opportunity to call me a slur.
i know some exclusionists are like, whatever about people just identifying vaguely as “queer,” but like. i’m so iffy about it. what exactly makes you “queer?” do you actually fall under any label in lgbt or do you just want a fancy identity?
i refuse to identify or allow others to call me a word that inherently means “weird” or “strange” or “odd.” i have enough reminders from others that we’re perceived that way by the rest of the world.
i also hate the fact that a lot of people were trying to killlll the whole trend of people identifying as the word “queer” back in the 90s, especially cause it’s an extremely triggering slur for many, but you liberal clowns really wouldn’t stop.
i truly don’t know what it is about the word “queer.” i have never seen people defend fully identifying as a slur the way they have with “queer.” it’s weird and gross and even more so that you try to label the rest of the community this way. don’t call me queer, i’m not queer.
also, and idk why the lesbian community just knows it but trust me we just KNOW it, someone who identifies as “queer” and loves the word “queer” is a lesbophobe deep down even if they don’t realize it lmfaooooo, that’s the case like 99.99999% of the time
someone DM’d this particular tweet to me to say it sounded t*rfy and like. thank u for revealing that u equate lesbians with t*rfs when it literally has nothing to do with this thread, and thank u for completely invalidating trans lesbians

when y’all don’t like something and see the word “lesbian,” you automatically turn to the word “t*rf.” why? y’all don’t treat gay men this way. y’all don’t treat bi people this way. it’s lesbians. too many of y’all are IMMENSELY lesbophobic and are too stubborn to acknowledge it.
also @ the fact that every single trans lesbian i personally am friends with hates the word “queer” like
but okay, this thread is t*rfy

literally brain dead cause it’s 2 am & all i wanna do is just keep playing persona 5 but compilation thread of lgbt people talking about why using queer can be problematic (many of whom are actual trans lesbians) so i don’t need to say it myself
