I find it funny how trends such as voguing or the “clock it” fingers movement are so prevalent yet there is no acknowledgment of its roots.

I only say this cause my family says some very queerphobic shit, yet will use the clock it finger movement (with the pointer finger) and on the same day think “gay month” is a joke or trans people “should just be more confident”
