dogb0y: yonichangedhisurlagain: thechosenjuan: equiusspaghetti: hallowkorg: spill-the-spooky-butts: vgcatsofficial: lol….. lol come out as an ally.., lmfao woah. slow the fuck down. Do you know how much shit my friends have dealt with for supporting gay rights? Yes, it’s fucking hard as balls to come out and accept your sexual orientation/ gender.But, It’s also hard for people to stand up for what they believe in. So don’t be an ass hat, be nice, and respect that this is a special day for ANYONE coming out about ANYTHING. POOR YOU IT MUST BE SO HARD TO BE A DECENT HUMAN BEING.. YOU DESERVE MORE PRAISE AND RESPECT THAN YOU GET SMH :/// whoa whoa whoa hold it kiddo FIRST OF ALL, allies are a huge part of the lgbtq community. theyre the people that, even though they dont have the problems of lgbtq people, theyre the ones that actually SUPPORT IT. its sorta like white slave owners who treated their slaves well and gave them education; they actually stand up against the wrongs of their own kind to give the less fortunate their own chances. YES, everyone should be like this, but HEY THEY ARENT. be appreciate of the people who are on your side instead of rag and hate those who arent. SECOND, what if those allies have their own set of troubling circumstances? coming out is tough for people in say, a religious household, but im sure that allies would get just as bad of a treatment supporting the community in that situation too. in that case its not /as/ bad, but ive seen people go through hell just because they had friends who were gay or trans or bi or whatever, and they got a bad time for ~associating with those people~. if youre going to be an ungrateful ass about it, then you personally dont deserve any of the straight people who would protect you after they came out as an ally this just in everybody: lgbtq people are slaves, cishet people are slave owners. allies just happen to be the “good” slave owners. i guess we shouldn’t be ungrateful about our slave masters when they’re such kind people. Hoooooooooly shit. I have never seen this level of ignorance and stupidity in my entire fucking LIFE. And I live in the southern US, for chrissakes! Let me fucking soothe your straight little minds: yes, we appreciate what allies do for us, we really do. But you know what? Not everything has to be about you. Jesus fucking Christ, take a deep breath and step back from your computer for a second and realize that the world does not revolve around you and your little feelings. No, you are not allowed to claim space on our days, and you sure as hell don’t get to compare past atrocities to the present in a fucking poorly worded and disgustingly racist metaphor.

Just calm the fuck down, tuck your gigantic ego away, and shut up. This is not for you, this does not involve you. Straight cis people get the other 364 days of the year, okay? You do not fucking need to get in on our shit too.

and the fact that asexuals weren’t mentioned at all in this whole argument makes me sad too. i know plenty of people who have had really hard times coming out as asexual, and also non-binary people (genderfluid, genderqueer, third gender, agender) who get so much harrasment and told they are fake or liars or confused instead of just being told ‘okay, cool, wanna get a slice of pizza?’ It has become such an overwhleming thing that some people never do it, don’t want the looks or questions. they just want acceptance. there are so many more queer people that hardly get any kind representation unless it is a tragedy or something alien to the norms of the queer community in most allies’ and non-allies’ eyes and it’s heartbreaking.

coming out day is about being queer and being open about it when so many people don’t have the luxury of not having to come out. we shouldn’t have to justify ourselves for your comfort, we don’t all need labels, we don’t all use them or they don’t always fit. and they are fluid and can change. but since it has become such a stigma to be any kind of queer that doesn’t fall into a stereotype of a label, people get all freaked out or call people out as liars or fakes when they truly are just trying to show you the real them. that’s what it’s about: educating others on our differences, abolishing ignorance and creating validation.
