I quit Tumblr a while back, and now it's the end of pride month and I have no idea what hateful, exclusionary shit the online queer community has concocted this year.

Me: How is Shadowheart the most romanced character? Not Gale or Astarion?
(twenty minutes later)
Me: OH. It's because most of the players are straight guys.
Spouse: ...yeah.
Me: For a moment there, I forgot that straight people existed.

Either I'm losing my patience with the constant usage of gay where the more applicable word is queer, or an awful lot of people are getting into the habit of using it to refer to all of us.

Mainstream US queer culture is a pathetic shadow of what queer culture is, having become all about cattiness, consumerism, and incompetence, send tweet.
I like my men the way I like my women: behaving and presenting in a way that makes them happy, because they've examined their gender in detail and decided to do their own thing rather than follow societal expectations.

I just finished reading a queer dictionary, and I can't tell if mainstream queer culture has become deeply catty and materialistic in the last ten years, or if the author is just Like That.

I met a real life gay assimilationist.
He wasn't as bad as I expected.
He was so much worse.

Two thoughts in quick succession as I watch music videos from my childhood:
"Ricky Martin dresses and dances so gay."
"More dudes should dress and dance like that."

Is me, a genderqueer person who is both a man and a woman, going to Pride in a full ballgown or three piece suit a fetish or an acceptable expression of my queerness?
