Just a simple bitch

*looks at the moon* well arent you gonna help me bitch

How bout an actual homosexual?????

Nah I don’t want someone who’s not gay to be an icon for my community I’ll pass

@politicabarata

turn your back on her? forget her sacrifices? I’m sorry but should we really force a community to accept someone as a representative? Actual members have already stated that they want representation from someone who is actually a part of their community besides an ally to be an icon. This isn’t to discredit her views, or to misplace allies as an unwelcome facet of gay rights activism. I’m sure she’s a good person who can be seen as a supporter but we should listen to the needs of the individuals she is trying to advocate for. Are we really going to yell at them ‘how dare you not appreciate everything she’s done for you?’ when they don’t see her as an appropriate outlet for their community? You’re going to force them to see the ‘truth’ of how they should accept Ariana Grande as a true gay icon? The community should be able to decide whose an icon as they see fit, and if they want an icon that truly represents their community as someone with the same sexuality as the community, let them! Why would they want an icon that doesn’t actually represent their movement, since they don’t possess the very trait that the movement is based on! She isn’t gay! Unless we hear otherwise from her, she isn’t. Thus, they don’t want to hail her as a champion of their movement because she isn’t one of them! This sounds harsh, I’m sorry, but honestly, what political movement has wanted their icons to be ones of outside support instead of one who fits the sexuality of the movement? I don’t know if I’m getting my point across well, but I mean that they deserve to pick their own icons without outsiders shoving whichever entertainer is their favorite down their throats to worship when they aren’t even gay.

Happy Pride everyone
