I Don't Know Who Needs To Hear This, Or If It Will Even Reach An Audience At All, But You're Valid. I'm

I don't know who needs to hear this, or if it will even reach an audience at all, but you're valid. I'm talkin about the people who are constantly told they aren't valid by their own community: the lesboys, mspecs and everyone of the like. Those of us with 'contradictory' identities. The people who use neopronouns, nounself pronouns, emoji pronouns, and/or xenogenders. You're just as valid as the people who fit neatly into simpler, more 'acceptable' and 'normal' identities. And don't let anyone tell you different.

I know it's hard. I've witnessed a pan lesbian get doxxed on Twitter all because they identified as such. You see, people like us aren't what's harming the community, but some people will try to make you feel that way. Try not to let it get to you.

All I want is to go to a trans person's funeral after they lived a full, enriching life. I want to see trans people grow old, I want us to live like the stars. We don't deserve to burn out before everybody else. When we die, I want it to be because we grew old, because we had lived.

The commercial visibility of Pride over the past few years has often excluded the voices of those most marginalized.

Happy Mspec Lesbian Awareness and Visibility Week! I hope my fellow mspec lesbians are doing well! You’re valid and I absolutely fucking love you all!!!!!

In celebration of my first hate reblog(/j), I'll be making another positivity post for the people who don't fit into boxes<3

Y'all are so cool for using the labels that feel right for you. You aren't harming ANYONE by being yourself, so don't force yourself into categories that don't feel right. You aren't being 'homophobic' by identifying as a bi lesbian. You're not invading lesbian spaces, you belong in them. Also, friendly reminder that mspec lesbians have existed long before a lot of us were born! :3

lesbian men are cool.
