Someone online once got p**sed off when I called them out over a *super* offensive joke about being sexually fluid, and responded by telling me 'not to get so caught up on labels.' It's like, dude, I'm fluid - the only reason I use labels is for *other* people to be able to understand me! *sighs*Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-73757135105646709922017-07-03T13:51:24.404+01:002017-07-03T13:51:24.404+01:00As a fellow member of the LGBT community, I comple...As a fellow member of the LGBT community, I completely understand where you're coming from. I don't know what the right answer is here, but this can definitely be frustrating.Lydiahttp://lydiaschoch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-32950705622525662182017-07-03T11:43:15.613+01:002017-07-03T11:43:15.613+01:00I absolutely hate how allies say people shouldn...I absolutely hate how allies say people shouldn't need labels or don't need them. Labels are one of the ways to find a community, to find people who are like you, to find people who support you unconditionally. It's also a way to find out what you are, especially for the lesser-known orientations.Huntress of Diverse Bookshttps://huntressofdiversebooks.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-36990197359709566302017-07-03T11:07:52.491+01:002017-07-03T11:07:52.491+01:00I know - I don't want to put them off though! ...I know - I don't want to put them off though! It's like: I really don't want them to think that I don't appreciate how much they're trying, but I also don't like some of the things they do/say. Still, like I said, I figured it was something that needed to be talked about - because if we don't, then nothing gets better.Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-76036409567694693992017-07-02T19:37:43.282+01:002017-07-02T19:37:43.282+01:00I think the important thing is that they are tryin...I think the important thing is that they are trying, and eventually they will get there. This happens with any situation where it has to do with identity.. people are learning but mistakes are made. It's like learning a language, you need to know how to correct them in a way that won't scare them off from trying again, and let go of their mistake :)Olivia's Catastrophehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706765857201768908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-34016650231966680542017-07-02T14:43:26.718+01:002017-07-02T14:43:26.718+01:00It's not even the a**holes as such, it's t...It's not even the a**holes as such, it's the people who are well-meaning but just can't seem to stop... *sighs*<br /><br />Thanks Em! *hugs*Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904551567804562350.post-29607841384340507752017-07-02T13:43:38.943+01:002017-07-02T13:43:38.943+01:00As an allocishet person, I would have no problem w...As an allocishet person, I would have no problem with people in the LGBTQ+ community calling me out if I mess up. The problem is though that there are so many people in the world that shut off the opinions of others and refuse to listen. So they continue to think a certain bigoted way. I apologize for some of the allocishet a*holes in the world, but just know that we're not all bad :) <3paperbackprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446601964387517150noreply@blogger.com
