Aro, ace, poly, and intersex aren't inherently queer, they're only queer of they want to be. As they exist outside the community a lot.
While other things like pan or lesbian are inherently queer.
But the others are up to the individual more
Excuse us???
Ace and aro ARE queer?????
Ace is a sexuality exactly like pan and lesbian????
They're not straight??? So they're queer??
And aro is also not "normal" nor straight so they're queer???
We never met an aro/ace person who did not consider themselves queer???
And polyamory is also a sexuality (adjacent if you want to be pedantic) and a deviation from the norm, making it inherently queer???
Where did this take come from???
Wut???
Also, the whole point of that post was to call out takes like this???
Why is attraction to no one excluded while attraction to everyone is included???
"As they exist outside the community a lot"???
Why would that be???
Oh, right, because people push them out!!!
Push us out!!!
We had to make new communities because we are not accepted within queer spaces.
Exactly because of bullshit like this.
This is the mentality that made MOGAI become a thing.
We had to make separate communities because we aren't welcome in "standard" queer spaces.
We have the right to exist in those spaces but we are not allowed.
Would you tell a non-binary person they're not queer because non-binary people were forced to make their own communities because even trans people don't necessarily accept them?????
No?????
Don't do it with aces, aros, polyam beings, or anyone else!
This pissed us off so bad!
