Curated Tumblr

It's incredible how valuable having self identity is. Just being who you are, who you are comfortable being, and being accepted for being that person, regardless of who you are or what you present as.

I always struggle with people who don't recognise people by their chosen names, or by their chosen genders. Just because someone with the genetic features of a male wants to be called "she/her", doesn't invalidate who you are as a male (he/him) or female (she/her) or whatever you want to call yourself. What purpose does it serve to deny people the same rights and freedoms that everyone else has, simply because they've made different choices than you?

That kind of bigotry should be stamped out as forcefully and as swiftly as the Nazis were. This is just a watered down version of the same bigotry and it should not be tolerated.

Stories like this should be commonplace.

Let's all just.... Get along.

And that's coming from me. A cis male, and supporter of all things LGBTQIA+

All the colors of the rainbow are beautiful. Be who you want to be. Much love for you all from Canada.
