Stop screaming about how ‘queer is a slur’ every time someone says ‘I like being queer’ or ‘I id as queer’ or ‘let people id as queer’.

We fucking know. All our words are slurs. Lesbian started as a slur. Gay started as a slur. Bisexual started as a psychological disorder, same with transgender. All our words have bad starts, the point in us using them was to reforge their sword into our armour.

Let us id as queer in peace. Stop harassing people over their identities.

also: queer has become a loanword in other languages, where it never was a slur. I understand why this might be irritating for native speakers. But it might be helpful to look the context a person is using “queer” and what their linguistic background is.

my gay conspiracy theory: the rise of all these “unicorn” themed products is because corporations know people love rainbows but companies are secretly terrified of the rainbow = gay connotation and by rebranding what is v much a gay+sparkly rainbow product with “unicorn” or “magical” they lure in The Straights and the Gays

conspiracy theory, continued: i’m gay and i fucking love unicorns
