When people argue about whether the “T” belongs in #LGBTQ, I sometimes feel like I’ve wandered into a strange debate about a family I’ve known my whole life. The conversation often treats these letters as separate tribes, negotiable factions that can be rearranged or dismissed depending on the politics of the moment. But life — and history — refuses to work that way.

Yesterday I was asked if I was trans because I have a trans flag on my laptop bag (alongside two rainbow badges and a bisexual kitty badge). Yes seriously, me. A sizzling daddy Dom lookalike.

It was in a coffee shop. I suspect the idiot was trying to troll.

I just responded "the sky has rainbows and it's not gay"

I think he actually underwent a blue screen of death.

Apologies to the sky if I misgendered it for the purposes of shutting down a prick.

I will always use my platform to speak up for trans rights and amplify trans voices - there is a huge media bias towards a minority of GC/anti-trans views and if I can use my reach to be a small part in addressing that balance I'm more than happy to #TransRightsAreHumanRights #LGBwiththeT
