    i felt much better after realizing you can just tell the concept of gender to suck a fat one, and simply identify as being yourself.

      Maybe it’s different these days (ok it definitely is, when I transitioned it was definitely seen as more ok to tell someone they might be trans), but back when I was an egg it was me vs me in that discussion. “I really wish I could transition and have boobs but unfortunately I’m a cis man” type shit

    After intense self exploration I discovered I am moneysexual. While everything else is fluid my love for money remains constant

          Look, I admire c/egg_irl and the safe space you’ve made there, but trying to control speech of other queers under some notion of a moral cause is unbelievably spooked. It’s how a queer orthodoxy gets made, and we fall into a carefully set trap made by conservative propaganda and religious bullshit.

            You know what’s really conservative and “spooked”? Inturpretting a movement to respect the gender identity of other people as an attempt to control their speech.

              I agree, what they’re saying reeks of that garbage “Freeze Peach” bullshit, and trying to argue for the right to misgender others in privately owned spaces.

                That’s one of the most bad faith statements I’ve heard in a while. You’re basically saying that any attempt to silence people who happen to be queer, even if they are saying legitimately hurtful things, is wrong and makes you conservative. This isn’t true though. In fact, lemmy.blahaj.zone’s admins are more than happy to ban people if they are harmful, gatekeep people’s identities, or intentionally spread queerphobia themselves, and it doesn’t matter if they are queer or not.

                Are you trying to say that horrible people should be allowed here just because they’re queer? Because that makes no sense, this place (Blahaj) being a safe space means that all harmful speech and content is removed, not just from non-queer people.

                  You talk big for a non-admin. Besides, bullying others for having different opinions on queerness is stupid, and I’m tired of safe spaces being a bat to beat people with - when we’re not even in c/egg_irl in the first place. Go mod your community how you want, don’t try and attack me because I’m not following your moral standards.
