I mean, you do see the irony of saying that on a website filled with Linux-crazed people, right…?

It’s the same car regardless of location. If you can’t see the parking lines then extrapolate, idiot.

Get a smaller truck, jfc. What if the lines were children?

Agreed!

But there’s also a certain expectation of “flamboyance” from the gay community, or you’re “not gay enough” and I think a lot of self-identifying queer peeps are to blame.

On top of the poor history of the word, I just don’t want to be associated with colourfulness and energy because that’s simply not who I am. People from outside looking into LGBTQ+ assume that that’s who gay men need to be because of media representation… It makes me tired.

Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.
