You will meet many types of people in your life. You will meet delicate flowers, raging oceans, quiet forests, towering mountains, and colourful skies. You will meet thunderstorms, you will meet lightning. They will knock you down, they will leave you breathless. You will meet sunrises, you will meet gardens. They will give you light, they will take you on adventures. Explore them. Get lost with them. They all have something to teach you.

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

Your feelings are not dirty. You are not dirty. 

That’s so easy to say. If you follow multiple lgbt+ blogs, it may even feel like some overused phrase. One of those things that people can quickly post to gain some notes without adressing any real issues. 

And at the same time, it can be so hard to believe it for yourself. “Of course lgbt+ people are not dirty”, you may think - and the little mean voice in your head adds a whispered But I am.  

Generalized positivity may always be easier to swallow than positive statements about you personally, for a lot of reasons, but apart from (or next to) that it may also play a role that we are often told we are dirty without anyone uttering those exact words. 

One example for that is the old “I don’t know how I will explain it to my kid” argument. They may not directly say “I think you are gross and that’s why I don’t want my kid to see people like you in a movie” but the message is there. 

The “bathroom issue” follows the same path. They may only talk about keeping kids (or women) safe but of course that translates to “I think you are dirty and dangerous”. 

Those are only two of the more obvious examples - you probably encountered tiny, subtle, silent “You are dirty”s before. Conservations in which you maybe couldn’t even pinpoint it but something just left you feeling uncomfortable, unwelcome…dirty. 

You are not dirty. Not only as this abstract “lgbt+ person” that is so easy to praise in text posts but as you, the human being who is reading this. 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Mom
