🏴I'm ace and enby-trans and I support the use of the term AERF. Don't toot me
It's my problem when you wanna argue there's no connection between terf rhetoric and ace exclusion
I didn't come here for this and I don't want to see these ppl near me pls. I've blocked them.
"Aerf was taken from the trans community." Okay let's erase those at the intersection of ace and trans then?
People don't want ace folks to have a language and a culture, a spot in queerness.
Saying ace people hate lesbians is like terfs saying we hate cis women bc of trans inclusion.
I'm so tired of having to argue against "straight passing privilege" in the way i have to argue against "cis passing privilege."
I'm tired of having to discuss sexusociety, amatonomativity and systemic oppression.
I'm tired of having to argue my personal experiences with hegemony for my own inclusion bc ppl wanna frame things as oppression Olympics.
I'm tired of ace erasure, dehumanization, minimization, exclusion... I'm tired of smear campaigns and lack of validity.
I don't even want to consider myself ace and enby-trans and just exist without labels bc I feel as harmed in regular society as I do trying for my LGBTQIAP inclusion. It's just an extra burden.
I've thought of just calling myself agender and that's enough.
