Me: minding my own damn business in the grocery store
One of my students and a few of his teammates enter the dairy aisle.
My student is holding hands with one of his teammates.
My student: Oh hey, Professor X!
Me, who has both my student and his girlfriend in my class: …Hello
My student, looking at his hand-holding partner: Oh! Don’t worry. My girlfriend knows. Not that I’m cheating! I’m not cheating. I’m not gay.
Hand Holding boy: Not that being gay is a bad thing! It’s a good thing!
My student: Right! But no, listen. We aren’t together, we just hold hands in public sometimes.
Hand Holding Boy: Especially on Friday nights. And weekends. And at away games.
My student: Because sometimes people will say shit and then we can punch them! And if the fight started because someone was being homophobic, coach won’t get mad at us.
Hand Holding Boy: Always nice to punch a homophobe. And [gesturing to another boy in the group] maybe they’ll think twice about saying something to [other boy’s name] if he ever gets a boyfriend and wants to hold his hand for real. The Gay One, resigned but smiling: I’ve decided it’s sweet and not really fucking weird.
Do you think in the omegaverse there’s a new, awful layer to “the talk” that teens get

the thing about f1nn5ter for me is like, it really highlights how much "clocking" someone is complete bullshit, because here's a cis dude who 100% can "pass" as a cis woman just with some makeup and padding. which makes me seethe with rage every time i think about depictions of trans people as someone wearing an ill-fitting costume, because here's someone who actually IS wearing a costume and he's frequently confused for a girl. like i know trans people have been saying for ages that these bullshit ways of "proving" someone is one or the other are in fact nonsense, but its nice to see someone else joyfully engaging with gender like its just a big stupid game. girl month. who cares.
