A gay “kiss-in” demonstration Yonge and Bloor streets, Toronto, 17 July 1976

On February 9, 1976, gay activists Tom Field and Bill Holloway were arrested at the corner of Yonge and Bloor streets in Toronto for kissing in public. They were charged with obstructing the sidewalk and committing an indecent act. Ironically, the men had been posing for photographs for an article on homophobia to be published in the now-defunct newspaper Alternative to Alienation. …
Field and Holloway were found guilty of committing an indecent act by Judge Charles Drukarsh on July 13, 1976, and were each fined $50. The ruling infuriated Gay Alliance Toward Equality [GATE], the Body Politic, and members of the community. The need for protest was in the air, but only a very special kind of protest would do. 
A few days later, on July 17, GATE and the Body Politic sponsored a kiss-in to support the right for gay people to publicly show affection. About twenty people paraded in same-sex couples at Yonge and Bloor streets, kissing as they walked. Policemen watched from the sidelines, but did not intervene. The protesters had made their point. — Donald W. McLeod

One time at a party this girl my age told me she was a lesbian and I was like alright awesome another lesbian. But then she told me she had a boyfriend so less awesome. And then she told me that he was actually trans but didn’t know it yet. That he was an “egg” and she was going to crack him (convince him that he’s trans). I wonder how those two are doing now

[ID: digital drawing of two young women, Jen and Lucy. Jen, on the left, has long brown hair in a braid, a long grey cardigan, purple shirt, and jeans, Lucy, on the right, has pink hair in a high pony, a black cowl-neck dress, and pink leggings. Both are holding coffee cups. Jen, looking at Lucy and gesturing towards her, asks "I've always wondered, why did you pick 'Lucy' when you changed your name?" Lucy, holding a hand out and looking away from Jen while blushing, says "Look, Jen, not every trans person's name has to have some deeper meaning, okay?" while a helpful textbox arrow pointing to her says "(named herself after Wyldstyle from the Lego Movie.)" The background is a stock photo of a mall. End ID.]

OC-tober day 5: Show some pride
This dumb joke has existed in my head about my magical girl OC Lucy for basically as long as she's been trans (so about 6-7 years now). Local dumbass named herself after a cartoon character and immediately got embarrassed about it

ironically, "brown queer" or "brown gay" is necessary for me to say when identifying every single time because i don't have the luxury of being able to separate sexual orientation from race and also it gives men the opportunity to ghost me.
there's always the possibility of being brutalized by the police when visiting a gay bar but at least in india there might be a one night stand in it for me whereas in toronto i have to endure the humiliation of being reminded that i'm not sexually desirable to most of the people i encounter. and ofc the lgbtq+ haunts for black and brown people are poorer and more heavily monitored by the cops so inevitably you end up at a house party with the same 20 people.
