I guess it's nothing new that the queer or LGBTQWERTY label is just the "cool" label. Why is everyone so desperate to belong there even if they find a name for their obscure sexual preferences? Because they don't wanna be a "normie". It's not "cool" to be a "normie". As an anti-conformist person I tend to be angry I am not a straight person among the rest of my "queer" friends. And in creative works, unlike the others, I refuse to make everything "queer" or at least outright "queer" and I just make characters who may happen to be not straight people but it's usually not relevant and I don't shower them in colorful flags and pronouns. But I genuinely feel more original when I make very normie aka straight and non-trans characters' stories even if it may sound funny. God, I had to let it out.
