Sweet Tokes In My Garden

sweet tokes in my garden ❁

So my boyfriend came out as trans last night and I realized something… back when we first started dating we identified as lesbians, then I came out as trans and consequently realized I’m bisexual, and now I’m in a gay relationship. So what I’m trying to say is that I have actually been LGBT as a singular person. Every single acronym. I have ascended and reached gay nirvana

it sucks because relating to each other's shared experiences is such an important part of building a community. like if i hear that a lot of queer people happen to be bad a driving or like to dye their hair im like "huh that's interesting, me too" and that solidarity feels nice and makes me want to learn more about what we have in common. but when internet culture gets their hands on these things they quickly turn from fun coincidences or intracommunity jokes to overblown stereotypes that cishet people can use against us, and it all builds until there are queer people saying its wrong to claim anything as part of the culture because there is no 100% shared experience. i do believe there is a middle ground between "literally every single queer person does or is into [thing]" and "every person is completely individual there are no widespread culture tying queer people together" but im not optimistic as to whether we're actually capable of achieving it
