Kooky-View8426 -1 points 11 hours ago "people who play it safe".... by establishing the entire community all on their own? By you making yourself a benefactor of their sacrifices and labour? Which is why you need historical revisionism to pretend a homeless drug addict "threw the 1st brick" when there was no brick? Or the decades long gay civil rights movement which took billions of dollars and leveraging of political power to make?

Queer theory was an attempt, by gays, and you keep saying "cis", not understanding you're perpetuating a false binary, to understand systems of homophobia. It came from focault and was contributed to by Judith Butler. There you go again with the historical revisionism. So Focault created the 50,000 tonnes of the foundations and conceived of the idea, yet you found some "trans" person who contributed a grain of sand and suddenly it's been "modified" and not appropriated, misused, misinterpreted to the point where it's been brought into disrepute by the very same people who complain about "cis gays"?

If this happens to be someone on this board, know that I love you and you are my hero. lol

All said, I actually don't mind this chick's ( or is her emaciated frame supposed to make us think 'masculine' and she's a really a man, like Elliot Page? ) whole outlook on this. I am 100% down with not being called queer because I don't wear a mask, and likely don't agree with 90% of her own beliefs. I have no problem with her removing me from the 'queer culture' so long as her exclusionary logic extends to the entirety of the LGB community. In fact, that's the whole purpose of this entire board: a divorce between the LGB and Trans communities.

Finally, we find common ground.
