Ok…so, I’m a 🔞16 year old🔞 💋👫👭bisexual female👭👫💋. Lets just establish that. It’s important f👂o👂r👂 my 💭story💭. But a few years ago⬅️⬅️🕙, I wasn’t 💋👫👭Bisexual👫👭💋. I was, what I thought to be at the time anyway, a young 🚮👫Heterosexual👫. But I still loved and supported the 🌈LGBT community☮, as we are 🔙now🔜 taught in school these days that being 🌈LGBT+🌈 is totally fine and 🆒🆒normal🆒🆒. So yes, I have supported the 🌈☮community☮🌈 for ⤴️most of my life. I didn’t choose to be 💋👫👭Bisexual👭👫💋. I just realised it one day🆕, and then got on with my life as usual🔂🔂. Nothing was different, everything was good🆗. Before I realised I was Bisexual, I had a 💅boyfriend I had been with for 1 year💅, and we were in a healthy, stable, and loving 👫Heterosexual relationship👫. He is, and happily identifies as, a 👫Heterosexual👫 🍆male🍆. He does and has always supported the 🌈LGBT community☮ greatly✅, but he is ❌not❌ queer. Now, I have a big problem that I need to adress right now🔜🔜. One that has troubled me for a while🔙🔙. The problem is some of the opinions a portion of other LGBT people have of 👫Heterosexuals👫. I see posts every day on Tumblr 😜joking😂 like “haha straight guys are so gross”, “man 👫Hets👫 need to get their priorities 👫straight👫”, “nobody cares about your 💬opinion💤, straightie”🆒 all made by members of the LGBT community. At least, I 🙏hope💭 they were joking. But even so, what brought on this kind of 🙈🙉🙊hatred💔? Not even towards ⏹Homophobic⏹ or ⏹⏹Transphobic⏹⏹ 👫straight people👫, but towards the 👰💃general 👫straight population👫? Firstly, I get that 🌈LGBT🌈 people were originally and continue to be 😈demonised😈 by 🗑Homophobic/transphobic 👫heterosexual people👫🗑. I really do understand how 🌡defensive you are about your 🌈sexuality/gender identity🌈 and how 🆘important it is🆘. But does that really mean you can go around 💩shitting💩 on anyone and everyone who may be 💝straight🔩? Really😰? Even though there is only ⤵️a 🙈minority🙉 of 🙅Homophobic people🙅 amongst them⁉️? You could have 👶children👶 read your insults. 👶👶Children👶👶. 👶Children👶 aged 1⃣2⃣ - 1⃣6⃣ who are 👫straight👫, or in a 👫straight relationship👫 with someone. How 💩SHIT💩 do you think that makes them feel☢, just for ✌️loving someone of the opposite gender✌️, or 💅💄identifying as🏈🚬, what is 🔊considered by many🔉, to be the norm🔈. I am ❌NOT SAYING❌ that being 👫straight👫 is the 🆒default sexuality🆕. ⏪⏪⏪Far from it. But most 👫straight people👫 do seem to 🛀🎨identify as🍺🎣 🍆straight🍑 from an early age. Those 👫straight children👶, who are 🆕nowadays🆕 taught in 👶school👶 that they should ❣️support and accept🆗 the 🌈LGBT community☮, are reading your 🛂hate-filled jokes✈️ and 🔪insults🔫 towards ☹️them☹️ and wondering💭💭 “what did I do to deserve this?”. 👫Straight people👫 have ❎🆒fucked up in the past🔙. There have been ⏫so many⏫ violent hate crimes, 📜discriminatory laws📓 and protests against 🌍us LGBT🌎 folk🌏 that were and still are led by 🚮homophobic Straight people🚮. 📉Those people📉 are scum. Disgusting, horrible, hate filled people that say awful things like “haha Gay people are so gross”, “man, Bisexuals should get their priorities straight”, “nobody cares about your opinion, faggot”. Thats pretty fucked up, right❓❓ But it sounds somehow 🆕familiar⏪. ✅Yeah✅. ↩️You’re spewing the ♻️same kind of hate♻️ at 🚼young Heterosexuals🚸 that 🚮Homophobes🚮 once gave to 🔄you🔂. You’re 🆘hurting🆘 the 🚻Heterosexuals🍆🍑 that 🔧support you and your identity🆗. Ones that may even, 🔜at a later date🔜, discover that they are ❎not❎ 🍫straight🎱 at all. 🔮How do you think🔮 that 😈hatred😈 towards them makes them feel👎. Even if it’s a 🙌joke🙌, even if it’s 🙊“meant for someone else”🙊, it still 📍hurts🎈. It hurts ⏫so much⏫. It hurt me, ⏪way back when🔙. It 📍hurts🎈 me 🔛now🔛, because it targets 👫my boyfriend💚, who I love and trust, and who supports you all👌. I feel 💫betrayed😧. We’ve spent ⏭so many years fighting for equality✖️➕➖➗. We as a 👩👩👧👧community👨👨👦👦.
And we are 🔃still fighting🔃.
And there are ⏫many⏫ 🔑straight people🔑 fighting with us.
So instead of 💯writing hate comments on the internet💯 targeted towards 💗💔innocent 👗straight people👔 who are also fighting for your 🔥equality🔥, 👫join hands👪 with them and continue to fight together. 🤘United🤘. Don’t 🔫shoot down⬇️ your own ⚔soldiers⚔.
