STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP
I’m sorry, Tumblr, but contrary to this website’s warped belief of self-worth and specialness and you all playing the ‘well I’m more oppressed!’ game, being hetero, white and cis doesn’t mean you’re special, and guess what? Being queer or of other ethnicities or trans doesn’t make us special either, it makes us people just like you who are trying to find our place in the world without having all that’s remaining of our identities becoming misappropriated or used to make us into targets.
STOP IT. Actual queer and transgender folk are disowned, abused, raped and murdered for being who they are, actual PoC are targeted and killed, and you are trying to cash in on our need for a safe-zone and acceptance.
So, all you who call yourselves Political Lesbians(i.e. that all women are lesbians and taht women who are attracted to men are brainwashed by the patriarchy and that every woman in a hetero relationship is subjecting herself to brainwashing and abuse) orTransethnic(that you are becoming a different ethnicity just ‘cause you feel your inner-Japanese girl) or that you are a Trans-trender(a person who lacks body dysphoria or the actual burning desire to be the opposite sex but ‘chooses’ to be transgender) let me explain you a thing…
SEXUALITIES, RACES/ETHNICITIES AND BODY DYSPHORIA ARE NOT POLITICAL BELIEFS, NEITHER ARE THEY CHOICE.
So all of you saying that you’re except from racism because you’re a ‘transnigger’ or that you identity as a dragon or fairy STOP IT. THIS IS WHY WE’RE JOKES TO EVERYONE IN THE REAL WORLD.
WE ARE NOT YOUR LATEST HAIRSTYLE OR FASHION STATEMENT.
WE’RE PEOPLE.
TREAT US AS SUCH.
