I LOVE THESE

teachers will get more mad at students saying ‘shut up’ than at students who are blatantly racist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, and so forth. 

how will asexuals enrich the lgbt community with their inclusion?

Okay, so let’s get this through your thick, exclusionist skull. (I’ll use small words)

How does anyone “enrich” the LGBT+ community?

Enrich, according to the dictionary, means a number of things.

1. to supply with riches, wealth, abundant or valuable possessions, etc.

In this way we bring the same thing you do: Some of us are able to donate money and resources to things like the Trevor Project or our local LGBT+ offices and their outreach programs.

2. to supply with abundance of anything desirable, such as knowledge.

Hi! I collect lists of websites and books and groups that portray and/or teach about different LGBT+ identities so that I can give them out to people who have questions. There are a number of us (asexual, aromantic, and agender individuals) who do similar things in order to enrich our communities.

3. to add greater value or significance to.

More voices = louder communal voice. You want people to listen to you about issues and struggles that our community faces? You’re gonna need more voices.

4. to adorn or decorate.

There are a good number of us who are artists. We design your posters and t-shirts and murals. We don’t just create art for our own identity, but yours, too.

5. to make finer in quality, as by supplying desirable elements or ingredients.

Every person has something good in them that they can bring to the table. By denying a whole group of people, you are denying their ideas and their resources and their personalities. You are denying all desirable elements that could build your community.

Now, this is slightly off-topic but it connects: The rest of the LGBT+ community (including you aphobes) talk a lot about how being gay isn’t just about sex… And yet you exclude us because some of us don’t like sex.

Kinda seems like you’re just shooting yourself in the foot there…

i really like this one <3

A gender that’s related to foxes but more quiet? Like, groves and burrows and the woods

vulpacagender: a gender that is related to foxes, but is more quiet and less hectic. may also have an aesthetic association with groves and burrows.

Just in case any of you were wondering what an m-spec lesbian was

what’s an mspec lesbian

I'm glad you asked,dear anon. An m-spec lesbian is any sapphic that identifies with both an m-spec label and the lesbian label. (M-spec means multispectrum,so any orientation attracted to more than one gender.) So they may be romantically attracted to multiple genders,but sexually attracted to women and feminine genders. Or they are attracted to all genders excluding men. They could be reclaiming the label lesbian, as it used mean any woman who had relationships with women,no matter the sexuality. This ended in the lesbian separatist movement of th 1970's. Finally, you have those that use it to show they prioritize their attraction to women, for whatever reason.

Married straight couples are the only heterophobes I know.

"My wife is gonna kill me if I do that!"

"Gotta go home to the ol' ball and chain."

Gen Z: Did you know that atoms can't touch each other? And since we're all made of atoms, we've never actually touched anything in our entire lives.

Gen X: ...

Gen Z: So to answer your question, no I didn't punch that cop.

call me a trender, but even people with “weird” identities deserve respect, even if you don’t understand them

so this is more for myself-

i'm curious to see how much my gender changes (I'm genderfluid) and what it changes to so I'll probably repeatedly reblog this with my gender shshhs

I'm going to spam memes
