Fungus? In the color of my pride flag? Yes.
shoutout to pan, omni, ply, fluid, queer, unlabeled, and all other non-bi mspec people!
there is absolutely nothing wrong with finding a label that works for you and makes sense to you and captures how you feel about your attraction, even if it’s unknown, looked down on, a microlabel, created on tumblr, or severely misunderstood.
despite what people say, your label is not the reason people outside of the community hate us. your label does not make people think the community is a joke. the narrative that queer people with lesser known, understood, and accepted labels (microlabels, non-bi mspec labels, most aspec and non-binary labels, multiple labels, etc.) are to blame for queerphobia is simply repackaged homophobia that the community internalized.
the labels you use, or don’t use, to make sense of your feelings and experiences in good faith hurt absolutely no one and take away absolutely nothing from anyone else.
please do not let people who are taking their internalized queerphobia out on their own community shame you out of identifying in a way that feels right for you or make you question yourself and your identity.
once more, there is nothing wrong with identifying as pan, omni, ply, fluid, queer, or any other non-bi mspec labels. there is nothing wrong with being mspec, but not using any specific label.
being mspec and not using the bi label, however you decide to label or not label yourself, is not hurting anyone.
you are an important part of our community and history.
please remember that.
Married straight couples are the only heterophobes I know.
"My wife is gonna kill me if I do that!"
"Gotta go home to the ol' ball and chain."
police literally dragged disabled protestors out of the capitol when they were doing a sit-in for healthcare and teargassed + shot blm protestors marching for human rights but try to deescalate and take selfies w armed insurrectionists and people still want to act like the police don’t exist specifically to enforce oppressive systems
Why are we trying to please our oppressors anyways?
Lemme tell you, if they find it weird someone is using neopronouns/going by a MOGAI gender and 'out of the blue' say they don't support trans rights anymore:
They were already transphobic they just wanted to find a reason to hate the community.
Hot take: There’s no such thing as “transtrenders”. They’re just young people, often teenagers, who are just trying to figure out their gender identity and become comfortable in themselves. Bullying them does no-one a favor. Fellow trans people are not what’s holding you back from becoming “acceptable” in a cis-dominant society, transphobes are.
I like this one too hshsgd

Hey, I'm very happy to say I'm aroace. After years of debating my orientation and being like 'but i thought this person was cute yesterday' or confusing romantic attraction with squishes I realize it's okay to accept myself.
Have a good day everyone :)
how will asexuals enrich the lgbt community with their inclusion?
Okay, so let’s get this through your thick, exclusionist skull. (I’ll use small words)
How does anyone “enrich” the LGBT+ community?
Enrich, according to the dictionary, means a number of things.
1. to supply with riches, wealth, abundant or valuable possessions, etc.
In this way we bring the same thing you do: Some of us are able to donate money and resources to things like the Trevor Project or our local LGBT+ offices and their outreach programs.
2. to supply with abundance of anything desirable, such as knowledge.
Hi! I collect lists of websites and books and groups that portray and/or teach about different LGBT+ identities so that I can give them out to people who have questions. There are a number of us (asexual, aromantic, and agender individuals) who do similar things in order to enrich our communities.
3. to add greater value or significance to.
More voices = louder communal voice. You want people to listen to you about issues and struggles that our community faces? You’re gonna need more voices.
4. to adorn or decorate.
There are a good number of us who are artists. We design your posters and t-shirts and murals. We don’t just create art for our own identity, but yours, too.
5. to make finer in quality, as by supplying desirable elements or ingredients.
Every person has something good in them that they can bring to the table. By denying a whole group of people, you are denying their ideas and their resources and their personalities. You are denying all desirable elements that could build your community.
Now, this is slightly off-topic but it connects: The rest of the LGBT+ community (including you aphobes) talk a lot about how being gay isn’t just about sex… And yet you exclude us because some of us don’t like sex.
Kinda seems like you’re just shooting yourself in the foot there…
yes- an aroace demiboy

i hope straight trans people know they’re amazing 🥺🥺 it has to be grating to endure all the Straight Jokes when you don’t share the same privilege as cis straight people
straight trans people are wonderful, your attraction and love is wonderful, your relationships are wonderful, and being straight doesn’t make you less of a part of this community
