the straight agenda: talking about gay people in the abstract as if there can’t possibly be any of them in the room

#this fucks me up so hard#especially bc i am not out at work#or at least: i come out over and over and it gets glossed over every time#because bi erasure#homophobia#microaggressions
HARD SAME
I can’t count how many times I’ve had to say “but… you know… I’m queer too…” and every time it’s your heart in your throat and dread as the person who just said the thing slowly looks at you. And sometimes people answer me back “no you’re not! I’ve met your boyfriend!” and I’m like… I don’t… know… how else to explain this? because it’s not your business? but also you’re not in a safe space for homophobes, y'dig?
Ughhhhhh.
