if your definition of queer doesn’t include asexuals and aromantics, kindly fuck right the fuck off
if your definition of queer includes allies, what the fucking fuck
if your definition of queer relies solely on gatekeeping other queers, fuck you and the fuck you fucked in on
(lgbtfuckyouia)
my definition of q/eer is that it’s a homophobic and transphobic slur, so try again
as a bisexual and aromantic trans boy, i’m allowed to identify as queer if i so choose. you are allowed to do otherwise, and i respect that and ask you to do the same.
cool you didn’t say YOUR definition, you said it was wrong if OTHER people’s definition of a slur doesn’t include ace people. my definition (the actual definition) is that it’s a derogatory slur. you can reclaim it, but i don’t have to include shit in “my definition” of the q slur and assuming we all have some inclusive definition of the q slur that’s just a replacement for lgbt is stupid.
and calling yourself the q slur doesn’t mean you can call other lgbt people “q/eers”, which is what you did.
the difference here is that i didn’t come onto your post to berate you for choosing language that folks have been using to describe themselves for decades. i didn’t call anyone names. i used an accepted an inclusive label for the community.
i’m sorry you’ve been targeted for abuse with that word, but i did not hunt you down to use it on you, which means you went looking for not only this post, but a fight. i have no interest in engaging with you further since you’re going to accuse me of homophobia.
cool, you’re still labeling the entire community a slur and calling lgbt people “q/eers”, which, yes, is homophobic.
i’m a lesbian. i have every right to reclaim dyke. i don’t go around calling every lesbian a dyke or referring to us as the “dyke community” because while i might be personally comfortable with it, i’m not going to label lesbians with a word i KNOW has a lesbophobic history, no matter how popularized it is.
and if i did it, people would be more than free to criticize my shitty and homophobic wording.
don’t use gatekeeping in this context, fuckwit. your post has nothing to do with not giving lgbt people (not cishet ace/aros) proper medical care because they are lgbt.
That would be a facet of discrimination, and has nothing to do with the concept and/or definition of gatekeeping, so I’m not really seeing your point here, but sure, okay.
For fucks sake. Can them’s that are doing it please stop referring to my identity as a slur, thanks. It was once, yeah. So was everything else used to describe lgbt+ people and the community. If you don’t want to use it, fine. But to go hunt down posts made by people who are comfortable with it, for people who are comfortable with it, like. Stop, you fuck. That’s like me, a black person, going to hunt down every other black person who casually says ‘n*gga’ because I personally choose not to say it. “Uhm did you know that’s a slur! Don’t describe yourself or others that way because I don’t choose to use it! I don’t care if the term has been reclaimed by the black community, it was a slur originally, so don’t you dare say it!” Like wtf? Who takes the time to go say dumb shit on other people’s posts? Not my queer ass, that’s for sure. If you need me I’ll be sitting here on my queer blog, scrolling with my queer fingers, loving my queer self and all my queer peers. Cuz I’m fucking queer.
