#but talking entirely personally. yeah nowadays i feel weird even calling myself genderqueer!! listing a pronoun preference.

a big part of the queer online kid to queer online young adult progression for me was losing all interest in labels. not in a distasteful way!! just. losing interest .....

#ive got a big post in the drafts about how ive found it impossible to exist outside of the queer identity structure these days #and the pros and cons of that #and i havent published it because i fear it giving off some anti-labeling-for-anyone-ever aura. which is not the vibe !!! #but talking entirely personally. yeah nowadays i feel weird even calling myself genderqueer!! listing a pronoun preference. #advertising myself as a lesbian at the forefront of my general human identity #because i am those things and people can refer to me in those ways!! absolutely #but ultimately my queerness is a lot more fluid than i gave it credit for as a kid/teen #and i think it defines less of me than i thought it did #or at least its such an intrinsic part of me that i can afford to look at a lot of other aspects of what makes me me #and this is all just my personal very privileged experience!! this isnt universal queerhood 101. but that makes it interesting!! #i dont know im having a very coming of age moment this year and im thinking a lot about identity. this is my diary welcome internet
