As a queer kid growing up in the nineties, I would never in a million years have imagined that I’d be using “We’re here! We’re queer! Get used to it!” as an argument towards other members of the LBGTQA+ community.

…Basically, TERFs ruin everything.

TERFs only ruin everything if we let them. We have stared down homophobia, hate crimes, HIV/AIDs, Prop 8, the ‘gay panic’ defense, don’t ask don’t tell, exorcism, unnecessary surgery, denial of necessary surgery, electroshock, conversion/aversive ‘therapy’, and hundreds of other brutalities, indignities and degredations.

We just keep living loud, shouting loud, and being ourselves. The madder they get, the louder we sing.

We’re here! We’re queer! Get used to it!
