If someone comments on my ass at work, or calls me baby/sweetheart/babe/S N O W B U N N Y one more time (after I've explained I don't like rhats harassment l) I'm going to rage quit. Today I got yelled at by 4 B A R G U E S T S BECAUSE IM TALKING TO A TRANS WOMAN AND "SHES NOT A

WOMAN THATS THE SAME AS ME DOING BLACKFACE AND SAYING THE N W O R D" and my anxiety got so bad (and is so bad still) that I couldn't defend myself. Against 4 people saying that I am not gay bc i like a "man". There only defense was being trans is the same as me, a white person,

Pulling an *li l*nd*n and saying im asian. Or that if they got surgery to have a dog dick and they acted like a dog, it'd be the same thing. How DAREyo7 dehumanise and delegitimise the trans community and their experiences. How DARE you compare them to trans-racial bullshit. How

D A R E you protest for black lives, and talk about it openly and candidly, and ignore a largely marginised and stigmatised group. You cannot support one without the other. BIPOC (and other groups tbh) trans women are attacked, murdered, and brutalised by normal people in the

Streets and thata okay? Their black lives dont matter because their trans? BIPOC trans women are still black lives and they still matter. And how dare you say they don't matter, you don't care bc their T R A N S. And how DARE you attack a woman who isn't around to defend herself!

And you attack me, call me straight , and belittle my gay experience and struggles. And you took my cute story about me and her having a thing before we both came out and it was not great, but we came back together and hit it off bc we're both out and honest with ourselves

You took that cute story and made it a "oh see you're not gay and she's not trans bc you had a thing as hets. The joke is she knew I wasn't straight and I knew she wasn't a guy. And you mocked that! I swear if i wasnt at work and i didnt have severe anxiety,I would have popped

Off. The queens at stonewall didn't riot, form chorus lines to back police up, and BEAT homophobic cops for me to get attacked at work. And I certainly didn't deserve to be told off when I tried to table the discussion bc im at work and youre being too much. Marsha P.

Johnson i disappointed you. One more thing I need to say. Don't ever say tHe GaYs HaVe AlWaYs HaD iT gOoD tHeY dOnT uNdErStAnD. The gays are YOUR BEST ALLIES. We've rioted, lobbied, protested, built safe havens, changed people's minds, and done it all fabulously. Being LGBTQIA+

Means you might lose your family, your friends, your job, your house. We attacked and mocked and ridiculed in public. People feel entitled to our sex lives and home lives. People mock us for being who we are. And ya know what? We get up as a community, we celebrate stonewall with

Parades and floats and booze and games. We made our own safe havens for our youth. We were prosecuted in droves and arrested for being. We were sent to concentration camps (and it was covered up until the 70s!) and used as lab rats, target practice, and as harsh labourers. Whole

Entire countries have made it ILLEGAL TO BE QUEER. Poland just re-elected a homophobic prick determined to take our rights. More than 70 countries have made homosexuality illegal and 12 of them use the death penalty for these "crimes". And yet, we persist. We are a great ally to

You. We know unfair, targeted, systemic harassment and hatred. Our people are POC and nonPOC alike. We stand and fight with BLM, but today I was shown the harsh reality that some people really mean cis hetero black lives matter and that's not okay. Queer black lives matter. Trans

Black lives matter. LGBTQIA+ black lives matter. We're fighting for our rights AND yours. Sorry for the rant and the tangent, I just needed to get why it was bothering me so much off my chest. Black lives matter. Trans black lives matter. Queer black lives matter. LGBTQIA+ black

Lives matter. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk and rant. I'm gunna go cry and call my therapist. Love yall.

Also sorry for the typos im still shaking and I don't know how to edit tweets

Also im not trying to say any one group has it worse, both have had terrible atrocities and the lasting impact is traumatising. Im merely trying to point out that the LGBTQIA+ community has faced shit as well, and you can't discount our experiences. Sorry I suddenly have massive

Guilt for this thread (yay bpd!) and ill probably delete it later. BLM
