Explaining to straight adults that much of queer history happened within their lifetime and they were unaware of all the extremely important events and how many laws there were to prevent us from thriving because they werent part of queer circles themselves is like...

-leans in close-

How would you like to know about the war in Ba Sing Se?

My dad LOVES learning about the Cold War. It's full of drama. Backstabbing, cross-double-cross, spy gadgets, secret identities. It makes for great stories and as a journalist he loves a good story.

Me: oh yeah, I was just watching a documentary on the Lavender Scare. Fascinating that it was so recent in our history.

Dad: ....the what?

Me:

[libraford]

Me: -explaining that the moral panic of the 50s slowed down in the 70s only to start back up again with the aids epidemic in the 80s-

Dad: I remember that. It was scary times because no one knew how it was spread.

Me: what if I told you... that they could have slowed the spread of it, but chose not to because it seemed like only queers were affected by it and the government didnt see any problem with all of us dying.

Dad:

Dad: okay heres a simpler question for you- what's with drag queens and Judy Garland and Barbara Streisand? I feel like every drag queen I've seen has a Dorothy costume in their lineup.

Me: -deep breath- okay so let's go back to that lavender scare for a minute and how it intersects with the golden age of hollywood...

Me, ten minutes later: and that leads up to that famous picture of a drag queen dressed as Dorothy protesting in front of Trump Tower with the sign that says 'surrender donald.'

Dad: that's a pretty recent photo though.

Me:... uhhh... 1982.

Dad: ... you've been hating that guy since before you were born, huh?

Me: oh man, wait until you hear about my opinions on Reagan.

[libraford]

Me, ranting about queer history:

My dad, just excited he can learn something new:

You know what, even IF trans girls were universally better at sports than cis girls, they should still be allowed to play on their high school sports teams because the mental health and well-being of trans kids, the social support kids get from sports, and the societal benefit of basic inclusion and normalization of trans kids are more important than who wins a volleyball game or whatever

[runawaymarbles]

I didn’t realize that girls got a say, or universally agreed on, who got to be on their sports teams. I wish I’d known this when I was 12– I’d have voted out Molly, who violated my boundaries by being a bitch

I went to school with a Paralympian. A multiple gold medal winner, no less. She used to beat us all hollow at every bloody sport, even though - and I cannot stress this enough - we weren't even doing the sport she became a Paralympic gold medalist in.

But she was never barred from participating because she was too good. No one ever looked at her and went "Well, she has an unfair advantage" and banished her to a Paralympians Only team. The nature of sport is that some people will be better than you. We weren't whiny little bitches about that who tried to get her disqualified so we could feel more special. We just understood that she was better than us, and got on with it.

Honestly, if you can't handle some people being better than you - whether that's down to raw talent, private coaching, or just higher natural physical stats - you probably shouldn't be in sports at all
