"100% queer as f4gs"?

[SlowLoris 936]

I hate this

[Ladle Ghoulash 16,210]

I get what he means, but ofc this is not going to be received well lmao

Nothing wrong. The gays hate having this conversation. There's not one way to be gay/straight/whatever that you are.

Knee jerk reaction was to think wtf is this however I read what he said, and it makes sense, and it's actually quite touching. We should focus on the substance and not the headline w this one

jk if the boy wants to identify as culturally queer let him.

as they say "cultural love is cultural love"

... growing up around & appreciating queer culture doesn't make you queer any more than growing up around the culture of a specific race makes you a part of that race

sounds like some rachel dolezal for gays kinda crap

Queer is definitely something that is described and understood very differently from person to person. I don’t see the issue.

Cultural appreciation

I feel like he phrased it badly. He could have said, “I’ve surrounded myself around queer people and learned a lot from them and I enjoy a lot from queer culture.” 

It’ll be the equivalent of me calling myself “culturally Jewish, Mexican, Korean, Persian, and Russian” just because I grew up around Jewish, Mexican, Korean, Persian, and Russian people.
