Hey!!!
There's another tweet going around saying you have to be out in order to make money from queer content.
FUCK THAT SHIT.
BEING LGBT+ IS NOT A BRAND OR MARKETING TECHNIQUE: IT IS A STATE OF BEING. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO OUT YOURSELF IN ORDER TO BE "PART OF THE COMMUNITY".

Telling people they aren't allowed to make money out of books with LGBT+ characters or themes is...
Oh my god, LISTEN TO YOURSELF.
"I only accept you're LGBT+ if you out yourself"
"Only people who have suffered are valid"

I'm not going to shut up about this.
The LGBT+ community isn't a club where you have to prove your right to membership. It's a community of people joined together based on one thing: they are not heterosexual hetero-romantic cis gender. Not "they are out".
