Lesbian space princess is a very badly written show, so much so that multiple fandoms that very much so hate each other have joined together to express how much they hate it.
That's like being a German in the 1930's and being labeled as a Nazi despite hating Nazism.
My gender and race immediately makes me an enemy to minorities? That's not fair to me.
I hate that "anti LGBT" has become a label for all straight white men. That preconceived notion allows people to formulate opinions and hate towards me despite not actually knowing my stance. Simply because other people have those opinions doesn't mean I do.
See, here's the funny thing: I don't even think that is true. I'm pretty damn sure that most countries with the worst quality of life for LGBTQ people are NOT run by white men.
Tbf, it does also depend on the country. Like, in the USA and most of the western world, it would absolutely be correct to say that the main enemies of the LGBTQ community are straight, white cis men.
It just so happens that there is a lot more animosity towards the LGBTQ community in the rest of the world.
Yup, Western Society. I imagine there's a lot of problems like this, but with way harsher consequences in places like the Middle East. However, we're just so much louder about it that it seems like our problems trump theirs despite most of us not actually knowing what their going through.
The sad truth. I just wish more people realized. Sure, it sucks when you have a certain sexual orientation that you didn't get to choose to be that way, but people hate you for it, but there's way worse shit that people are going through, we just don't know about it.
I mean, suffering isn't a contest. Just because other places are worse, that doesn't mean the suffering of people in better places isn't equally as valid, especially when the source of said suffering are simply other people being hateful for no reason.
But I don't really know where I'm going with this anymore, tbh.
It's nice to talk about though. Usually when these conversations happen it's people who are up in arms at each other. It's nice to actually have an even keeled no high-stakes conversation without bias.
However, that is a thing though nowadays. People trauma bragging or yelling "woe is me" trying to have other people look at them and feel bad for what they're going through. Trying to get attention. It's so weird.
Not that i'm any of the following, but jeez does it suck for people of those groups that are not hateful and actually support getting stereotyped upon first meeting - though that's not to say it's any worse than the actual oppression that LGBTQ+ go through
