post so bad tumblr offers 5 delete buttons and no post button
[id: screenshot of broken tumblr queue footer ui with one reorder button, 5 delete buttons, one edit, and one unreadable button where post button should be./end id]
Look I understand it’s a metaphor to show how ridiculous the weaponization of male socialization is. And it’s a good metaphor but. the ONLY reason people don’t genuinely say “cultural christians don’t belong in queer spaces” is because the vast majority of Western queer people are culturally christian.
I know this because I’ve seen “being raised Muslim means you’re homophobic” and “being raised Jewish means you’re Zionist” escalate to “you need to denounce your cultural and religious heritage in order to be welcome in Queer spaces” countless times.
i fear that the same ideological purity bullshit that fuels transmisogyny also turns every Reductio ad Absurdum you could come up with into a real human asshole
Ye knowe eek, that in forme of speche is chaunge
With-inne a thousand yeer, and wordes tho
That hadden prys, now wonder nyce and straunge
Us thinketh hem; and yet they spake hem so,
And spedde as wel in love as men now do.
glossary:
eek also
and even
tho at the time
prys great value
wonder a cause for astonishment
nyce stupid
spedde succeeded
You know the form of language, too, can change.
Within a thousand years, even the words
that were most precious then, seem strange
and foolish to us; yet they spoke them so
and did no worse in love than we now do.
