What actually is a ‘queer’ these days? I’m guessing it’s a different meaning to what I knew in the 80’s.
In the 80s it meant 'not straight' (and was a pejorative). Today it means 'very straight but don't like being called that' (and those who use it are happy to appropriate the word even if actually gay people find it offensive, despite talking a lot about offence & appropriation)
Very few queer people find it offensive, although any who do are justified. I have yet to meet an allocishet person who self-identifies as queer. If they’re not allocishet, then they *are* queer.
People who spend all their time thinking about their gender and sexuality are just going to end up anxious, confused and depressed
And TERFs are just the picture of equanimity, calm and unbothered joy
You know what's obviously worse than spending all your time thinking about your gender and sexuality? Spending all your time thinking about OTHER PEOPLE's gender and sexuality
We can only wonder what you spend all your time thinking about Arthurpic.twitter.com/DXKcAtaaae
