@chaosprime idk if it was terfs specifically, but yea. That's what I thought you were saying at first.
@DeerOccultism …the line of "I am attracted to the same gender" not "I am attracted to X gender" — why if not for social sorting purposes?

-
@DeerOccultism another benefit of categorizing attraction by attraction: it isn't instantly reduced to a broken mess by the first NB person
-
@chaosprime andro/gyno doesn't account for them either -
@DeerOccultism It's an expandable schema. Hetero/homo isn't. It denies NB ppl as subjects, above and beyond not including them as objects.
-
@DeerOccultism (Part of why the "among others" in my initial tweet. Defining by opposition implicitly reifies the binary.)
-
@chaosprime that's more reasonable. I don't rly have any retort or mental capacity rn to reply to this well. Sorry. -
@DeerOccultism No trouble! Thanks for responding at all, it was definitely thought-provoking to dig into it. :)
