Holy shit I'm so annoyed at the expectation that transhets shouldn't celebrate their sexuality just as much as other queer people do. How many times do I have to say this, our "straight" is a queer straight!!! Our sexuality is just as queer as anyoneone else's https://twitter.com/Loto_Fiori/status/1322792314465619971
Stop thinking in a cis way. I wasn't raised with the expectation to "be straight", I was raised with the expectation to "be a straight boy"

Acting like "girl attracted exclusively to boy" and "boy attracted exclusively to girl" is the same orientation is suuuch a cis analysis
Quit treating transhet ppl as if we have the same privilege as cishet people. Believe it or not, our sexuality differs from the stock sexuality the world pushed on us just as much as any other queer person's sexuality does, how many times do I need to say this 🤦‍♀️
Imagine if for some reason the queer community as a whole just DID NOT want to hear about lesbians celebrating their sexuality, and whenever a lesbian got understandably mad at the queer community being alientating, they were labelled as "insufferable"
because people who were not lesbians were convinced, *convinced!!* that lesbians had a privilege that they don't have. I'm so sick of this oh my god, stop basing your discourse on reductive models of the world, and instead base it on the actual world ugh 🤦‍♀️
Imagine if lesbians taking about how much they love women was equated to cishet men talking about how much they love women, then they were accused of having straigjt priveleg and told they should be quiet about their sexuality, then when theu object they're suddenly INSUFFERABLR
Queer community, this is what you're doing to transhets!!! Quit equating us to cishets then saying we have straight privilege that we just don't have. We deserve to joyfully celebrate our sexuality just as much as any other queer sexuality. Quit alienating us!!!
