You think nobody knows. You're not even sure *you* know. You've never told anybody. We see you. We can tell. We knew before you did. But we know you're not ready. When you are, we'll be here. Until then, we love you, and stay safe. Pride is for you; it's *especially* for you.

Pride is for you. You're the reason for the bright colors and loud music and glitter. You don't have to join in. Be however you want to be. But because you're far away right now. We need you to be sure you can see us, and hear us. We need to be sure you know you're not alone.

Everyone has confusing, even foreign feeling thoughts, especially in the midst of formative phases of life; I sincerely hope your suggestion isn't that "these inevitably signal that your turmoil is just like mine". That would be an alarmingly narrow-minded thing to assert.
-
You can fuck right off, buddy.
-
Cheers; your bold beautiful love comes conveniently folded and slipped into a fitted glass box. I won't follow your suggestion though, because the glitter isn't JUST for you. The beauty isn't only yours. You do not own the love, or get to decide who's earned it.
-
I don't actually know what your point is. Care to explain like I'm 5, like I'm not cloued in in this community? (Because I'm not)
-
It's manipulative to say "I know you and your thoughts better than you do" especially if that assertion intends to enforce a particular choice, pattern, or identity. It's the type of behavior activists have long sought to curtail regarding these very private and personal issues.
-
I guess he removed the tweet where he told me to F off when I asked for clarification as to whether his assertion was intended to homogenize this complex issue. Could've just been feckless wording, but it's a tactless notion nonetheless.
-
There are better ways to voice support than to insist to vulnerable people "you are one of us because you are just like us, and as long as that is true, we have your back" - especially when what immediately follows is a needlessly venomous retort. True love doesn't grow fangs.

Your sexuality is fine whatever it is. No need to feel guilty for not having a fancy label lol

Haha, it's fine bro. Not quilty, just utterly disappointed with nature

Thanks. My identity fluctuates a ton, only constants I know are I'm bi and not quite aligned with the binary.
-
You don't have to have it all figured out, now or ever.

Thanks, Ian! You've been incredibly supportive of me. No matter what name or pronouns I wear, I'll always be a sister at heart to you and the
