Personally I Dont Think Ill Ever Really Understand Pushback Against Using Queer To Describe An Lgbtq+

personally i dont think ill ever really understand pushback against using queer to describe an lgbtq+ person (especially from/by the queer community), its honestly a beautiful word and while it's been used and may be continue to be used to hurt us sometimes, i just really like that word

op you're 100% in the right here (in my humble opinion), keep up the good work <:

I hold such a special place in my heart for quote "out dated" queer language. Like now terms like transexual, transvestite and such are not used frequently or even considered totally incorrect bordering on offensive and yet... I find the existence of it so comforting. In a world where we lost almost an entire generation of queer people to the AIDS crisis and where anti-queer specifically anti trans rhetoric is increasing exponentially the simple fact we have tangible linguistic proof of history and evolution as a community is so incredibly comforting.

In regards to the “wanna be nosy post”, 25, 31 and 44! (:

25. museum date, drive-in movie, or a nice dinner out <:

31. "hey honey, i don't think ill be able to make it, im sorry /:"- sent to my friend about a graduation party

44. up to 98% of civil war surgeries used anesthetic, most commonly chloroform or ether (chloroform was preferred though, because ether is very volatile and flammable).
