Sorry Yall Im Half Asleep And Rambling In This Post - Tumblr Posts
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.
