#Aphobia is bigotry against #asexual and #aromantic people.

Aphobia is different than other forms of #queerphobia. But it still SUCKS.

Common aphobic tropes include:

👎 Denying that asexual/aromantic ppl exist
👎 Dogmatic ideologies that claim that "everyone" must like/want sex and romantic love
👎 Framing asexual and aromantic ppl as "broken" or "inherently depressed"

I’m #aro-#ace myself and all those beliefs are TRASH.

Today is the yearly reminder that:

#Homophobia 🤮 ,
#Biphobia 🤮,
#Interphobia 🤮,
#Transphobia 🤮,
#Aphobia 🤮,
#Lesbophobia 🤮,
in short: ALL forms of #Queerphobia 🤮

STINK and are GIGA-#CRINGE. It’s not LGBTQ+ people who should feel embarrased. Queerphobes should feel embarrassed instead.

#LGBTQ+ people just want to be themselves and don’t give a SHIT about hurt queerphobic feelings. Don’t be a queerphobe, it’s CRINGE.

I find it quite saddening that there is this notion that minors and adults can't coexist. If someone is friends with a minor, that is viewed as suspicious. The person hasn't done anything wrong, but they are perceived negatively. It's worse for queer people, especially when it comes to being transgender.

For example, bottom/top surgery is viewed as "sexual" and "inappropriate for minors" by some. But none of this is inherently sexual. Of course, I am a sexual being, but that doesn't make my entire existence inherently sexual. I don't want to be seen as a freak or a sex pest simply for interacting with minors in queer spaces. Heck, parts of disability are also sexual.

I think there is a very fine line between exploitation and a simple conversation about what has or hasn't worked for you. By no means am I saying adults should be forced to share their life experiences with minors, but I also don't think we should have to live in fear of what mainstream society thinks of us.

We should also be making this a conversation about how we can help protect trans youth. They need just as much support as adults, if not more!

Making "ur mum" jokes in response to homophobic comments never gets old.

A story about Stonewall in Sydney closing down:

The Canadian Antihate Network (CAHN) and the CBC have identified over 190 Canadians who were on the now-defunct white supremacist dating site WhiteDate.net. Among them are a number of members of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), including Royal Canadian Air Force Major Tristan Armstrong, who apparently left a trail of thousands of posts in far-right forums between 2019-2024. The CAF is now investigating him.

Armstrong's online posts championed Nazi Germany and Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists, really off-the-charts views about Black people, women, and LGBTQ folks.

Another is Ottawa-based naval reservist Brogan Hale ("blueeyedsailor" on WhiteDate.net), who has expressed eliminationist ideas in order to "keep Canada white".

And a third is Brandon Longpré, a self-identified corporal in the Governor General's Foot Guards in Ottawa. Longpré isn't quoted in either of these articles, but having observed WhiteDate closely while it was still up and running, I can tell you that it's pretty inconceivable that anyone could have had an account on there without knowing that it was a forum for people on the white nationalist/neo-nazi spectrum.

The CBC article also identifies the WhiteDate accounts of two already well known Canadian nazis: Shawn Beauvais-MacDonald of the Frontenac Active Club/Second Sons Canada and Exiles of the Golden Age organizer Lane Pommer.

If anyone would like to see the exported WhiteDate files, they're at okstupid.lol.
