I wish straight people knew how heartbreaking queerbaiting actually is for us. Like, you’re not just teasing a relationship. You’re dangling equal representation in front of our faces, being treated like human beings in front of our faces, with amazing and varied characters whose storylines are more than how straight people kill us (bullying) disease kills us (hiv scare) or we kill ourselves due to the tragedy of our story.

You dangle it and go “am I gonna? Am I gonna? ….Lol no, a show with gay lead characters?! No one would *ever* watch that!” and don’t see why it hurts us.

Legit. The message it sends is “nobody wants to see people like you”, no matter how much anyone says otherwise.

Its so funny how straight men dont extend the concept of “not all men” to gay men when they talk about how not all men are harassers or catcallers and act like every single gay man might hit on them and even use this “fear”/excuse to be violent towards the gay men they encounter.But if a woman tries to even avoid men or be violent towards men because she fears thatthey might harass them,she is called a “bitch” and many horrible names

Straight men : Not all men are predatory you bitch.Just bc there are a large number of men who have harassed women doesnt mean you should avoid of all of them or react violently whenever some man tries to check you out or hit on you.Maybe they are just interested in you?Stupid misandrist slut.

Also straight men : That gay guy was TOTALLY checking me out or was trying to prey on me so I panicked and attacked him repeatedly okay?I dont want gay men hitting and preying on me and idk which ones are the “bad ones” so i should be allowed to hit any gay man im suspicious of??That doesnt make me homophobic

something that rly creeps me out…..occasionally ill see videos or articles for christians or christian missionaries that say something like “what you need to do is make friends with non christians and really get them to trust you and THEN you start preaching to them and bringing them to jesus” and that is….man how much would it hurt to know that the only reason someone’s hanging out with you is to convert you to a religion you were never interested in. maybe this is a real friend, someone you really really feel like you connect to, and all of a sudden you cant hang out with them without being scared they’ll bring out the jesus stuff.
