i honestly don’t understand why so many people struggle to understand that saying “TERFs/REGs/Truscum/Aphobes don’t belong in lgbtqia+ spaces” doesn’t mean denying the gender identities and sexualities of those people.
how so many of y’all read “these people are harmful and abusive and pose a real danger to other lgbtqia+ people so they shouldn’t be in lgbtqia+ spaces where they can hurt those people” and take that to mean “none of these people are lgbtqia+ anymore! you’re all cishet now!”, i have no goddamn clue.
