REGs are not here for LGBT people either.

necromin:

REGs are really, really not here for us any more than they are my ace and aro brethren, my friends.

REGs are bigoted against gay, lesbian, bi, pan, and trans folk as much as they are any other queer person out there.

If you tell a lesbian she is not allowed to see herself in the media she consumes because she doesn’t have or want enough sex for you, you are bigoted against lesbians.

If you tell a trans individual the way they experience /love/ being shown in media is too dangerous, too toxic, too hard to understand for the mainstream, you’re a transbigot.

If you treat me like I’m Gay Lite because my romantic relationships are different from yours, because I don’t have enough sex for my opinion to really matter to you, for you to talk over me and my experiences, you never supported my identity in the first place.

If your desire to see LGBT people represented in media, in society, and in discussion about our community is conditional at all, you’re not here for LGBT people.Β  You do not care about the diversity of our experiences.

You don’t just hate /certain queers./Β  You hate LGBT people too.
