One of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen on this site is the idea that queer is bad because it’s ‘vagueness.’
Like…'but queer doesn’t tell me exactly who you’re attracted to right off the bat and immediately tell me who you’d be willing to enter relationships with’
And it’s like no offense but
That’s none of your fucking business?
You don’t have to immediately hear what i call myself and go ‘oh that’s a lady fucker right there’ because-and i swear Tumblr has completely forgotten this-
My sexuality is my fucking business and i don’t have to air it out to you for argument points.
To be honest, the whole ‘but queer doesn’t tell me your sexuality!’ thing has started to sound more like ‘but queer doesn’t tell me if your sexuality is an acceptable target’ and nobody owes anyone a chance to attack them and pretend to be a Hero To The Gays ™ for it
Plus, if you’re actually interested in somebody and want to know who they’re into you could o i don’t know,,, fucking ask them? Talk to them like a normal human being? Maybe get to know someone before you sink your teeth into them?
Like this idea that everyone must immediately know every label that could be stuck onto you or else you’re doing them a huge disservice is just fucking bananas and literally useless outside of a culture where suffering can be cashed in for permission to cause suffering, and that’s all this whole thing is about- wanting permission to pick on somebody because somebody else picked on you. And it’s fucking ridiculous.
