Whenever I talk about Tumblr Kids These Days with commodorified (the gf) she tends to end up saying, "I feel like... these children... do not realize they are not actually the boss of anybody else."
Like, they DO NOT ACTUALLY GET to tell someone how they dress, or what they ask their friends to call them, or who to sleep them, or what relationships they form, or what rights they can lobby for. Nor should they GET to.
That's the kind of thing I'm afraid to say on Tumblr, because so many people view themselves as having a moral responsibility to police other queers people aspiring to LGBT-dom.
