flutecocktail: volanus: Why do we have gay straight alliances and not 100% queer only spaces for queer youth…………? Why must the straights be included…………………………….?

because GSAs allow closeted LGBTQ youth to join without outing themselves also because it is possible for gay and straight people to be friends??? that is sort of the whole point of GSAs? for gay and straight people to be friends? for straight people to come to know gay people and like them and learn how to effectively stick up for them??? wow it’s almost like inclusion and acceptance benefits everybody look at that

GSAs are also a good place for ‘straight youth’ to go “Oh wait, that’s a thing? But that’s me? I’M NOT A FREAK, THERE’S A NAME FOR THAT???” I was on my last year of high school before I fully confirmed my gender identity, and it was years more before I knew the proper name for it. If I’d been in a GSA, my label searching might have been a hell of a lot faster and smoother.
