Hmm maybe if the LGBT community wasn’t so sexualized, asexuals would feel more comfortable with aligning themselves with the community.
Maybe if the only LGBT spaces weren’t bars and clubs you’d have more asexual people participating in the community.
Maybe if people, hetero or otherwise, stopped making the LGBT community so sexualized, you wouldn’t get assholes that think “asexuality isn’t part of the LGBT community”.
MAYBE I’m getting fucking sick of asexual people getting excluded from the LGBT community because they’re not “gay enough”
This is making people that don’t think asexuals belong in the LGBT community mad keep reblogging it
just saw someone say that asexual people don’t belong in “the community” because “the thing that brings the community together is same gender attraction”? I guess the T also stands for Tomato, bisexuals are only in it half the time, and anybody who isn’t currently attracted to someone has no connection to the rest of the acronym, right?
and that LGBT spaces are supposed to be limited to bars/clubs? must suck for anyone who wants to relate to other people going through the same stuff in a way that doesn’t involve sex. because the only functional difference between being straight and not-straight is who you want to have sex with. yup. the only thing.
besides, it’s not like asexual people can relate to being othered and excluded for not conforming to society’s expectations of attraction or anything
oh
If you aren’t exclusively attracted to the same sex don’t fucking call yourself gay.
Then stop using the terms gay marriage, gay rights, gay bars, gay pride, and gay community when you mean LGBT+ or same-sex. Stop saying “lesbian and gay organization” to refer to LGBT+ organizations – looking at you, pflag! If you don’t want gay to be an umbrella term, stop using it as one.
You can’t force the label gay on bi and pan people against our will and then complain when we use it. It doesn’t work like that.
I'mma gonna reblog this again because it’s making the openly transphobic OP incoherently angry and I am all about that shit.
boom I’m with the second comment,
My personal favorite LGBT memes:
- “Harold, they’re lesbians”
- “[Anything completely irrelevant to the LGBT community but happens to be enjoyed by many LGBT people] is gay culture”
- “I’m not heterophobic I have a straight friend”
- Acting like Macklemore is the savior of the LGBT community
- Insisting the Babadook is gay
- Posts that exaggerate how straight people write gay people (But let’s be real is it really exaggerating?)
- “6 months on HRT” [Picture of something unrelated] “vs 4 years on HRT” [Picture of something vaguely similar but drastically different]
- “There are only two genders” [Two pictures that are completely unrelated to gender]
- “LGBT stands for:” [One or all the letters are changed to completely irrelevant things. Notably if one letter is changed it’s usually the T, or even the B]. (Example: “LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, uhh… Transformers…”)
- Using football as a way to reference straight people without outright saying it, as if you’re too hesitant to say “straight/heterosexual” out loud
Honestly all of them are good but I can’t be here all day
- “[Slight inconveniences/annoyances that everyone deals with on a daily basis] is homophobic.”
Kicked out of the LGBT community?
Yes, I’m afraid it’s true. /:
I wish I could fight for equality with them, instead of next to them. I wish there was an S for “Straight” in the acronym. The acronym means being proud for your sexuality after all, doesn’t it? Hm…
Well, I still have my straight pride! Even if those of the LGBT community do not want my identity in their acronym, I can still be a proud ally and heterosexual! :)
Ohhh noOOO the big mean queers kicked you out if a space for queer people??? For not being queer? OUTRAGEOUS! disgusting this is true heterophobia uwu uwu spread awareness #straight pride Straight people are oppressed too!!1!1!! Uwu look at this poor Republican heterosexual DiD U KNO THE STRAIGHT FLAG IS, GASP, BLACK AND WHITE??? THATS SOOO DISCRIMINATION!!!! BIG BAD MEAN QUEERS!!! lets all go cry in a corner while complaining how orlando could have happened to HETEROSEXUALS
when will something lgbt happen to ME
*stumbles out visibly shaken and convered in blood* something very lgbt just happened to me
For those of you who may not be aware, in Scotland there is an officially registered tartan called Pride of LGBT.
This is so cool, because tartan patterns were originally family symbols. Almost every Scottish clan has a unique one. Even my family has one. It’s like saying LGBT+ is a family, one you can belong to even if your blood family doesn’t accept you.
Um, I'mma need a kilt in this tartan like YESTERDAY.
I just want to add in here that specific tartan patterns being associated with a family or clan is a somewhat recent phenomenon. Long before that it was a matter of personal taste and an expression of social/economic status. The more colours you had in your tartan, the richer you were. Certain dyes were also difficult and expensive to obtain. You didn’t have red unless you were very wealthy and powerful, and you definitely didn’t have purple unless you were richer than god.
This is basically the fanciest, most extravagant tartan imaginable. If you went back in time to like medieval Scotland wearing this everyone would lose their minds.
Someone reblogged that liminal spaces post I made with “OPs a homophobe” and then linked to a post I made that said “asexuals belong in the LGBT community and there needs to be more non-sexualized LGBT spaces to accommodate them as well as minors and other ppl that don’t want to be in sexual environments” like yes me, a bisexual, is homophobic… because of a post I made… that said… we need to be more inclusive… for ppl in the LGBT community…..
Anonymous asked:
Do you think ace people belong in the LGBT community even if they aren't trans or don't experience sga?
kaijuno answered:
Lmao we are not starting this discourse on my blog I’ve had enough death threats in the 6 years I’ve been here and I don’t want any more thanks
it makes no sense for ace people to belong in the LGBT community though??
like who is going around killing ace people?? who has religions saying ace people are abominations?? who is making laws against ace people??
what do you even think oppression is??
being oppressed doesn’t mean “people don’t know about this aspect of me”
being oppressed requires people having extreme negative systemic prejudices that hinder your daily fucking life.
why the fuck should ace people belong in LGBT spaces??
Can we pls go like more than like 4 hours without discourse and aphobia on my posts please I am so tired
