this community is meant to be about protecting and loving each other when the world is unwilling to, i hope you can find it in yourself to open your mind to others experiences, even if you can't personally understand it

I hear you but there’s a reason why gatekeeping exists. Some ppl weaponize identity. So it’s just a question of how the community wants to handle it. Dont think unconditional love is the answer

my point more with regards to the original post is that if we are calling something weird that activates helps welcome people that hurts nobody, we are making it harder on ourselves, they is not just a term for gender nonconforming folks. even if you don't understand why people do it, it's so against the point of our community to nitpick things like this
