As you know I hate âalliesâ invading queer spaces. As a writing challenge I wanted to write a story told from the second person for ages. I began today. Letâs see how this works out.
Of course I am interested into feedback - but please do not expect that I care about it. I know what I want to tell and how to tell. Feedback is expectation management for myself :)
@jascha I really needed the follow up to understand your point. Parts of it come off preachy and a tad condescending to my taste.
To me, the crux of the issue is that the person youâre talking to isnât comfortable with their sexuality. Theyâre not an ally; theyâre still on their journey.
I also think itâs completely fine if people arenât used to seeing everything they see in a new environment. Whatâs important is that lack of knowledge or understanding doesnât turn into judgement.
@jascha In addition, the âinvited but not welcomeâ paragraph might sound like a zinger, but it feels a bit gate-keepy to me. You canât conditionally invite someone.
Theyâre either welcome, or theyâre not.
