I feel like islamophobia in the lgbt+ community, especially from white people, is something that is often overlooked
but as a muslim lesbian...it hurts. it's alienating. you're harming us when you say religion can't coexist with our identities because islam is as much a part of my identity as being a non-binary lesbian is!
there are plenty of legitimate criticisms to be made about white christianity and it's weaponization against the lgbtq+ community, but lumping muslims in with that is so harmful
the same people who persecute lgbt+ people also persecute muslim people, and if you can't see us as your allies or fellow community members, then you have some islamophobic views to work out
and before you tell me that muslims don't accept lgbt+ people, I'd like to mention that I have come out to multiple mujtahids (religious leaders at ismaili mosques) in my lifetime and they have all welcomed me
for every white lgbt+ person who doesn't accept my faith, there is a muslim who accepts my sexuality and gender identity
do better. because this is our community too.
cool that there’s a trans guy character in that new baymax series or whatever. idc it will never detract how funny it is to me that they thought a man saying “these are the type of pads i use for my period” wasn’t an obvious enough signifier of him being trans so they just. put him in a trans t shirt. like JUST. a tshirt. in case you missed that this is the trans character. this is the trans character guys. cant you tell by the Giant Trans Flag he’s wearing
I do find it weird that all of the sudden it's boycott the 4th of July now. Like it's for a good cause I guess but it's strange that all of the sudden it's boycott the 4th of July.
Literally a lot of women want to boycott it now, despite minorities having disparities with the 4th of July long before the roe v wade overturning. I don't know it just kind of seems too centered on just white women wanting to boycott the 4th now.
It kind of reeks of ignorance in a sense that white women are just now boycotting it because "we can't celebrate independence day when we as women just lost our own indepedence". They didn't really care to see other issues with the 4th until now. (from what I can tell)
Like don't get me wrong it is for a good reason. But it's completely ignorant to just boycott the 4th now because of reproductive rights, when minorities and women have been getting screwed over by America from the very beginning.
Boycott the 4th of July and turn it into a day of action for reproductive rights. We WILL take back our rights.
Our lives and liberty depend on it.
Terfs are such giant misogynists lmao
