You are a fool.

"women are expected to perform femininity, but when they perform masculinity, they are admired and rewarded. "

"Which comments that I've made here do you even take issue with?"

A) My writing has been shared here more than once.

I'm really, at this point, kind of shocked you haven't been banned here yet.

Are we sure 'kale/gay' isn't drawing on those granola hippie lesbian tropes? Are we sure she wasn't already thinking gay from the Putin thought and then when asked about kale, immediately conjured a lesbian stereotype?

Bullshit. I've worked in professional kitchens for 16years. I have seen this happen precisely zero times. Honestly, I kind of feel like fuck you for assuming we don't take our jobs seriously. For real, I didn't go to cooking school and get berated by chefs to learn to cook just so I could disrespect my fucking craft.

None, but I'm starting to get into being more upset than I was to begin with. This is a big part of queer culture which has always existed and which most queer people take pretty damned seriously. Your original comment was dismissive and leaning into mocking. Tell me your 41 stars on that comment are not mostly…

"but it feels a tad homophobic to mock it outright (from a queer or or not)."

But who we fuck and our relationships with gender are exactly what being lgbt is about! I think for some, it's a political statement, for others its a personal empowerment thing, sometimes just a classification within the community for the purposes of knowing where others are coming from. Maybe it's not something that…

Yeah, I think it's important. I absolutely love this article for that. This here is queer culture, people. Are you surprised? If the answer is yes, question yourself. This is why I say 'well meaning', I don't think most of these people are trying to get it wrong, I think they just assume they already understand and…

To be fair, queer people have issues with plenty of other queer peoples chosen labels. 'woodsy artfag', yeah the fag part is the worst, but this here is a kind of silly nonsensical label. Some do take it too far and make shit up that has to be explained even to other queers to be a special snowflake. There is even a…

Stop trying to fix each yourselves and other and focus on fixing the goddamned patriarchy, seriously. Whatever it is you are doing right now, it's fine, seriously, you can still be a feminist.

Yes. I agree. I don;t know that many people realize just how steeped in heterosexual culture they are. I think this whole piece is very interesting. It's interesting as another queer, but I'm not surprised or anything by any of this - the ways people dress and present themselves, the labels. It's pretty commonplace…

They aren't and I resent you for immediately assuming they are. They are not stupid they are quite intelligent, complicated and nuanced and that is precisely the reason they are not being explained here. Go back to your hole.

No really, this whole line of conversation is insane and I can't believe straight feminists keep bringing it up every two weeks like it's a new point that hasn't been shot down a billion times before already for very good reasons.

I think it's important to point out that this a series of photos by queers for queers. I think that in itself is the reason you notice the long winded identity labels. Most if not none of these people would go much futher than 'lesbian', gay, bisexual, 'trans man', etc. normally when speaking of their identity in…

It is way too much to get into here, but know that some people have issues with the way queer is used in the community for very valid reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with historical usage as a slur.

I love this article for so many reasons I can't even start to list them. It should be bumped and shared on GT at least twice weekly as a reminder.

"Unless you plan to yell at every woman you see walking down the street with shaved legs and armpits. "
