dear would be hetero allies to LGBTQ2


But especially would be heterosexual males who presume to be in rather than adjacent to LGBTQ2,

  1. you do not get to use victim language to any LGBTQ2 individual, you do not share the queer experience
  2. you do not get to define terms or words, nor explain others lived experience

I was kicked out of 12 facebook LGBTQ2 groups owing to being an atheist, and a number of atheist groups owing to being LGBTQ2

partly the problem of most things being discussed in a hetero male right vs hetero male left manner, devoid of hetero women and against LGBTQ2 to against that against but not inclusive of LGBTQ2.

on a new social media site, mewe, where I experience as much censorship from the site and the heterosexual normativity, as I did on facebook and now instagram where using the phrase “heterosexual man” results in hate crime notifications.

in 2021, still fighting the same decades to centuries old bigotries.

it is not gatekeeping to tell Heterosexual men of low to no libido to incels that they are not part of the LGBTQ2 qmunity for failing to conform to heteronormative appearing norms.

LGBTQ2 is differing expressions, absent of yours;

this morning, I had a hetero moment reminder: posted in a mewe group

dear would hetero allies to LGBTQ2

making the qmunity about you, as if heteros define the qmunity

shows how much not an ally and how much not a part of the qmunity you are

heteros do not decide about LGBTQ2 and do not have more valid views, which are dismissals of LGBTQ2 voices.

it is not gatekeeping, it is that heteros do not share history, oppression and do not understand how to listen

and cannot interpersonally relate with LGBTQ2

hetero allies would understand the difference

heteros who are seeking queer validation of heteros are part of the problem of queer erasure

comments and replies are welcomed and please indicate if I may include your comments in this post, as they occur

THEN – what I tried to edit that too, with only the “comments line above” being accepted as a second edit attempt.

I am a member of this group, and not an admin or moderator nor owner of.
I have already blocked the group member who posted that heterosexual men of low or no libido were members of the qmunity, and that is not something hetero cis males get to decide
the experience I had as one of the letters in LGBTQ2 was being told the hetero asexual male’s day and communication manner was more important than the issue raised, which could have easily been replied to at point in the day or tomorrow when there was time for a reply.
LGBTQ2 have been historically and currently genocided and oppressed and the leading cause of suicide is bulling by hetero sexual males in family and at schools and in the workplaces as adults.
the LGBTQ2 are distinct groups who have experienced legalized oppression, criminalization and had our sexuality and gender be a subject of medical debate.
through which, we have shared stories and histories and relationships.
making the qmunity about hetero asexual males, as if heteros define the qmunity they are claiming to be part of, as we are also working to kick out the pedophiles who are also attempting to be openly members of the qmunity.

heteros do not decide about LGBTQ2 and do not have more valid views, which are dismissals of LGBTQ2 voices.
it is not gatekeeping, it is that heteros do not share history, oppression and do not understand how to listen
and cannot interpersonally relate with LGBTQ2
heteros who are seeking queer validation of heteros are part of the problem of queer erasure
actual hetero allies would understand the difference

further, the recent chanting of “I’d rather be a pervert than a terf” – the transwomen need to be concerned about what kind of pervert is chanting with them.

really think of the children, eh.
