“mogai tumblr made it hard to figure out my gender/sexuality when first coming out”
consider: You don’t have to have a vendetta against queers with the “weird” genders and sexualities, especially teenagers, because you used to consider yourself one of them
also consider: the answer to “my identity was hard to figure out” is not to make it harder for other people. erasing other people’s identities will not make your own more visible. MOGAI people actually quite often find it helpful to have words for their identities, like yourself, and everyone else in the world
also consider: your anger is misdirected. heteronormativity hurt you several billion times more than the split attraction model ever could. No one who IDs as frostgender has the social capital to gaslight and coerce children from birth into a gender. straight and cis people are 100% to blame for the shame we’re made to feel for our identities and placing blame on young queers achieves nothing but furthering that shame. there is no good political goal that can be achieved by bullying mogais you nasty fucks
lol ok. go through @.hate2breakittoya’s “mogai hell denial” tag and see how harmless mogai identities are.
yeah this is what my post is about. all those stories are the same thing, “i identified as mogai when i was really in the closet”. people used mogai identities to avoid coming out to themselves. Is that meant to be the fault of mogai people who actually do need those identities? i identified as bi before realising i was a lesbian, so do you think i have a right to hate bi people? should I spend my time getting revenge on bi people for the time I didn’t realise I was gay?
