This is why Queer has become a social identity like being emo or punk, not a sexuality like being gay. But since queer is the new lgbt, people start saying bs like "friendly reminder: transphobes can't be lesbians". To them being a lesbian requires belief in their queer ideology rather than the reality that being a lesbian only requires being a woman exclusively attracted to other women and lesbians have the entire spectrum of political beliefs.

It's really strange how they seem to think of being gay or lesbian as a political statement, or a façade. Like, just because that's all it is to you doesn't mean that's what it means to everyone.

And even if they genuinely believed it was incorrect for any sane homo/bisexual to support LGBdroptheT, that doesn't mean we're suddenly not L,G or B. Like if an illegal immigrant supports deportations, that doesn't mean they're suddenly not an immigrant, it just means they have weird beliefs.

Honestly such a strange argument.
