Gender And Sexuality Is A Fickle Thing. Sometimes Two Gay Cisgender Men Will Be Dating For Decades And

gender and sexuality is a fickle thing. sometimes two gay cisgender men will be dating for decades and one of them will turn out to be a transgender woman. a lot of times that won't work out but sometimes it will. her partner may still choose to identify as gay. She might even identify as gay, and they continue to be happily in love. Queer politics isn't going to get any better if you don't accept that situations like that happen every day.

having oc fictives is literally source: i made it up

Love how I have to actively and carefully skim a blog before deciding to reblog a post because I find out the poster& is (often very vocally and grossly) anti endogenic.

I dunno how to tell you that we're all in this together. That endogenics (or any other system type) are just as human as you are despite your vitriol towards them. You being hateful to another person& just because you won't take the time to learn about something won't make us look better to singlets.

Nothing will make us look normal to singlets. Because we aren't existing to be palatable towards them, or anyone. We're existing for ourselves. Or we should be.

Look at these beliefs that singlets themselves have drilled into your head and unlearn them. They don't want any of us to exist, let alone the types of systems they put in diagnostic criteria that isn't accurate anyway. Stop being insensitive and ableist for all of us. ☘️

Lesbians can be masc and go by he/him and exclusively go by masculine terms and take T and get top surgery but then as soon as they're any percent Actually A Dude suddenly they aren't lesbians anymore and it's stupid it's fucking stupid

it bothers me when people use "gendered" synonymously with "binary gendered"/"male/female/masc/fem gendered", because that still implies that those are the only two options, the only two real genders, when in fact there are so many people who are gendered in ways those people probably wouldn't comprehend. like, i have seen people describe maverique as "not having gendered feelings" before, which is only true if you mean binary gendered (and neutrally gendered), which only works if you think male and female are the only existing genders. it's subtle, but it still has implications.

same goes for "nonbinary people don't want to be gendered". i mean, yeah, a lot of us don't, even those who do have genders, but others very much do. i want to be gendered as maverique, just not as binary. that's part of why i use neopronouns rather than they/them, because to me, my neopronouns feel gendered in a way that's specific to me, whereas they/them pronouns are often referred to as non-gendered pronouns.

of course, most people will only know to view me in a binary-gendered way or in a non-gendered way, so i choose non-gendered, but that doesn't mean that me and many other non-binary people are necessarily non-gendered ourselves.

gendered =/= binary, as there are more than two genders.

Anyway lesboys and mspec lesbians are valid and will ALWAYS be welcome in the LGBT+ community!! Sending love to my fellow queers <3
