i will forever rmr being w the gsa at my school and feeling like i had to defend my fashion choices just bc i’m a lesbian. i had to explain multiple times during the week of halloween that my ultra sharp and long nails that i put on specifically for halloween didn’t negate my lesbianism. i had to listen to people older than me that were the leadership members of the group proudly comment that they didn’t know nonbinary people could be lesbians. i had to listen to a presentation on various queer identities that included pansexuality as not only valid but as interchangeable with bisexuality - the argument given for p*n basically being ‘hearts not parts.’
like i know no one is perfect and people are in different places in the journey’s learning about queer stuff but like. cmon. that was supposed to be a place to feel safe and accepted, not talked over and questioned.
