Nothing Has Been More Important To My Being Queer Than When I Went To My First Pride Parade, Got Seperated

nothing has been more important to my being queer than when i went to my first pride parade, got seperated from my group, had a panic attack about it and was sitting on the side of the road holding a tiny genderfluid flag and freaking out. then this six foot five drag queen in four inch heels appeared from literally nowhere and sat down next to me. i, this scared-shitless trans bi kid at pride for the first time, very nervously told her she looked pretty and i told her my name and that i got lost and didn't feel like i should be at pride and she held my hand and said "oh, honey, everybody deserves to be here, especially you. pride is for everybody who's ever gotten lost, who's been scared of who they are or where they are. you think we never been scared before? pride's for you, honey, because you're scared. you don't have to be proud right now, but you're gonna be one day, honey, i'm sure of it."

i found my group soon after that and i never saw that queen again but to this day i am convinced i met an angel.

so yeah. pride is for you. pride is for all of us.

"Neopronouns are made up!!!" ah yes, made up pronouns, as opposed to the organic, 100% natural she/he/they pronouns, handpicked from the trees

ok. so if people, regardless of their gender, using whatever pronouns they feel comfortable in (lesbians using he/him, gay men using she/her, non binary people using he/she) invalidates trans people who get gender euphoria from people using the proper pronouns because of the way they are gendered for THEM personally, why is this argument not used for the concept of unisex names? if a womans name is henry (for example), are you gonna say she’s invalidating trans men for having a masculine name? are you gonna tell her its HER fault that people will dead name trans men now? are you gonna hold up the same standards you have for pronouns (which were INVENTED to replace peoples names back when only two genders were recognized in eurocentric cultures) for peoples names?  

pronouns are like names. unisex, changeable, and purely exist to refer to someone in the third person. and if you dont use someones name and pronouns properly, youre transphobic. its as simple as that.

less “if you see a man and woman together at pride be nice! they could be bi/pan/trans/ace/aro” and more “stop gendering strangers to harass them anywhere, but especially at pride holy shit”

“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.
