On MULTIPLE occasions I have seen girls having genuine mental breakdowns because they’ve identified as a lesbian for basically their whole life but one day they found a man attractive and, therefore, believed they wouldn’t be accepted as a lesbian. They were scared the community they were apart of for so long was going to turn its back on them and they weren’t allowed to live the lifestyle (yes, being a lesbian is considered a lifestyle by many) they were so comfortable with.

There were a couple people in the comments who were apart of the lesbian community as well and assured them that the community would not turn its back on them and they supported them and they could still identify with lesbianism if they wanted to. Sadly, these comments were met a lot of backlash saying something along the lines of;

“She’s attracted to men. At the most she’d be bisexual” (this is also biphobic; implying one for of queer is “more queer” than another.)

Or say, “lesbians aren’t attracted to men- hope this helps!”

These people are giving off the same vibes as people who support the ‘Gold Star Lesbian’ term- that queer girls and fems- hell even nonbinary people who don’t even identify femininely- who have been attracted to men or have had sex with men are ‘less good’ or ‘less pure’ than individuals who haven’t.

ommg kaatlliiww 🤤🤤🤤🥴🥴😵‍💫hes me ,,,,, i cqnt believe this awesome creechur is me,.... im so cooll,,

i’m going to try to keep this short. i have a blind friend who is/was also in that server, and the two of us have been attempting to ask for more accommodation for my blind friend (who i’ll call H) for the past couple weeks.

we have brainstormed countless easy solutions and compromises, but every single one has been shot down by the mod team. reasonings included that H is “only one user,” that it would “ruin the aesthetics,” that it’s “too much effort” or “hard to moderate” or that mods would “face backlash”. the word moderator is literally your job title— what do you mean you don’t want to moderate?

to their credit, they did add an image description ping, so that people who didn’t want to describe their own media could ping it to get someone else to, which would’ve worked great if anyone used it. unfortunately, very few did, which resulted in me having to go through and describe 5-10 images all at one time, which created a “wall” of image descriptions in media channels. staff took issue with this and implicitly told me to stop sending image IDs because they were clogging channels. i pushed back, and they proceeded to call H “emotionally unstable,” tell me that H didn’t need to engage with material that “wasn’t equipped for them,” and say they were tired of “trying to accommodate” for H, when no accommodation was actually implemented at all. they refused to compromise and framed me as the villain, calling me biased, manipulative, accusing me of guilt-tripping, and criticizing me for trying to help. i was threatened with removal from the mod team, just for trying to stand up for a blind user attempting to be a part of the server.

if you are visually impaired, do not join. they will not help you. this server is not accepting nor safe if you need something that doesn’t fit their aesthetic mold or requires effort on their part to help you.

i know it's probably just online queer discourse but with how much the internet and the real world have become intertwined i'm worried about these people taking these ideas with them offline. years ago people would be 2 completely different people on and offline and now it seems like it's become more acceptable to mix the two.

it's also gone to show how little people really understand about GQs and enben and how willing they are to stuff us right back into boxes, but this time "wokely," which by the way the bastardization of the term "woke" is also immensely pissing me off. also the amount of people that see their identities as vip clubs that need to focus on excluding people instead of the community we're supposed to be.

i have a feeling the quick slope down back into conservative and right wing thinking has made people who cant think for themselves hop on this bandwagon. this is a queer issue altogether. i'm american so this is mostly centered on american issues, forgive me.

multiple states are practically unlivable for transgender people. tennessee passed a bill requiring medical providers to report the information of those who seek gender affirming care in May. multiple states are blocking people from changing their gender markers on any legal document. transgender people with a gender marker on their drivers license that doesnt' match the one on their birth certificate can be arrested for identity fraud. the federal government has rolled back amendments on birth certificates. some more petty things like proclaiming june "nuclear family month" with verbiage that implicitly excludes queer families from this month, only serving to undermine pride month because the government doesn't actually care about the families in the states they're supposed to represent. this is all just american stuff and other countries like the UK are also seeing a significant regression after years of apparent progression.

so basically what i'm getting at is there are all of these genuine queer related issues but people would rather be on the internet telling people with contradictory labels that they're not valid. i do not consider these people, people that insist we as queer individuals must pander to allocishet normative ideologies, that we must make ourselves palatable for the majority, part of the queer community.

this post doesn't really serve anything but for me to complain and i hope for people to feel a bit more encouraged to do something. i know so many queers in the us live in rural areas where queer activism is practically impossible and i'm not here to shame those who literally cant do anything. but if there's a pride organization in your town, or any humanitarian organization in general, now is a good time to get involved.

also, it might just be my region but i've noticed a lot of pride festivals have been moved to october, which is queer history month, because of the intensifying heat, so if you're planning on going to one you might want to check that your org didn't move it.
