I am seeing a lot of posts saying how calling out what happened at SDCC as homophobic is ‘ridiculous’. I’d like to address first the scope of what homophobia is, then move onto how the incident was driven by homophobia. 

Definitions:

When you hear the term homophobia, it conjures up images of assault or of slurs being thrown out in the open. This is often not the case. Incidences of homophobia can range from the above to smaller instances that make you question whether of not you’re being ‘hysterical’ or ‘dramatic’ for thinking you’re being discriminated against or not. Merriam-Webster defines homophobia as: irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals. 

Hi followers! 

I was hoping you’d be able to help spread the word or even donate to funding my LGBT novel. Something Tragic is a very real, sensitive, and raw depiction about the experience of coming to terms with who you are and learning to love yourself. 

 The book is being crowdfunded to help pay for editing costs because editors are NOT cheap. I would love if you donated on the campaign and checked out the page. You can read the synopsis, get sneak peeks of the manuscript, and as a thank you for your donation, get a free copy of the book! You can even get it autographed! 

 If you can’t donate, could you please at least share the link to spread the word?
