“Your Wish Is My Command!”

Happy pride from me!! I have a quick message that I don’t see in a lot of queer posts recently, that I think is really important and we should include in our posts about pride and queerness.

you don’t have to be visibly queer, to be queer. This is something I struggle with a lot, as an invisible well passing trans man, but there’s something I need people to understand. If the queer community still feels like you’re being put into boxes or archetypes, you aren’t experiencing the genuine queer experience.

I don’t need to be a provider as a butch! I don’t need to love femmes as a butch! I don’t need to use she/her pronouns and I don’t need to be gender presenting non conforming. My inability to be strong, my lack of attraction to femmes, and the fact that I identify as a boy does not make me less butch.

The entire point of being queer, is to break the chains of conformity. And it’s okay if you can’t do that, it’s okay if you’re invisible, hiding, passing, or closeted. these things do not make you less queer. Nothing can make you less queer.
