Could you please tag ur most recent post with like tw q word/slur or two qu//r? It's abit triggering.
i understand not everybody feels the same towards that word and i'm sorry to hear that you were effected by it, but i'm afraid this is something you might just have to unfollow me for tbh. Queer is how I identify and how i refer to the community, similarly to how our history is referred to as queer studies and stuff like that. I don't really think it's appropriate to tag it as a slur when I'm just using it as a descriptive word, specifically one that's in reference to non-specific not-cishet identities without reducing anything outside of the LGBT acronym to a plus symbol.
tl;dr normally i go ahead and trigger tag things when asked bc its not hard but in this case its important to me that i don't. sorry

The Q Word
The Q Word. You've seen it, and heard it everywhere haven't you? In articles, online comments, other people's blogs... Often it isn't used referring to people who identify as such, but referring to the whole of our community. Because apparently we aren't the LGBT community, but the qu**r community.
This is not okay.
The Q word has been used as a slur towards many of us. Not everyone is alright with being called it.
Second of all, it literally means odd/strange. We are not odd. We're not strange, or weird. We're just normal people.
If you've reclaimed it, good on you. But please understand the history of the word, and that not everyone has reclaimed it yet because of that.

In Egypt homosexuales don't call themselves "ممثلين" the literal translation of homosexual. They acll themselves "شواذ"/"خولات" which are the equivalents of q***rs and f*gs. And when the wave of gender ideology hit you know what stuck on? Not gay or lesbian or homosexual. No. It's q***r. This is what they call themselves now.
There is so much internalized homophobia and self hatred here. Gay men choose addiction and sui*de over being gay because they know what that entails. Lesbians marry men here all the time. They grit their teeth and have sex. They force themselves throught pregnancy after pregnancy to achieve the socially acceptable look for a girl. She can't live alone. She will risk murder. At the hands of her parents. At the hands of her neighbours. At the hands of a man that wanted to rape her and she refused.
It's a common experience here that when a girl/boy questions their sexuality they do drugs. They get addicted to weed, alcohol fuck ik ng tramadol if they can get their hands on it they will do it. They all dream of escaping. Escaping their families, escaping the disappointment and disgust in their parents eyes. Escaping the treat of being murdered for who th eh are. We all dream of escape. We think of way to get out. How can i get out. How can i make it out alive. How can i survive.
When i first started questioning my sexuality i knew what was at stake. I hated it. I don't want to be a lesbian. I already am a woman. Have i not suffered enough? God do i not have enough shit in store for me so you make me a lesbian. I told myself i would be ok marrying a man. I just have to marry the right one. I would be his moustache he would be mine. We would be ok. We would be safe. We would spend our life in hiding, looking over our shoulders at any given moment but thats ok right? We will live. That's what matters. We will live.
We have no pride. We hold our heads down. All we want is to fucking stay alive. The community doesn't use homosexual/gay/lesbian. They use qu**r. Because that's what we know. We know hate. We know how to call ourselves the slurs they use against us. If i say it too then does it really hurt? It does. It does fucking hurt when someone points and you and says it.
That's why i think qu**r cought on so fast here. Faster than homosexual was even a common word used by the community let alone the media. That and because the word hasn't reached the public yet. It's a word you can say without whispering. No one knows what it means here. But everyone knows what gay and lesbian means.

homophobia tw/ i work at a certain popular emo store and not only does one of my coworkers keep vaping in the store after i’ve repeatedly asked them not to bc i have asthma but also today these kids came in and would not stop making jokes with the f slur and saying qu*r and laughing about it and i understand if you reclaim that but oh my god maybe don’t do that in public bc it makes some of us uncomfortable!

Hey! I’m a disabled person, and I noticed some of your tw tags are a bit difficult for tw, so I hope it’s okay if I just give a few suggestions? 1, if you add // after a tag, it actually makes it harder to block, because people need to have the exact tag blocked and more people have “x word” in their tag block list than “x word //”. 2: in order to both help people trigged by queer and people who ID with it, you can tag it as “q power” or “q reclaimed” except in cases where it’s not reclaimed!
We will definitely keep this advice in mind, especially in regards to "//" for trigger tags. I'll start tagging things as "x tw" and "x" from now on. In regards to qu--r, we had a long debate about this a while ago and everyone decided that "q word tw" or "q word" was the best way to go. I still think using "q slur" should be an acceptable way to tag it bc the majority of ppl I know who want it tagged, including myself, have that tag filtered, but I've been using "q word tw" -Mod Jordan

on #q slur
my Official Stance™ on "queer is a trigger for some people and they need it tagged"
if you're going to reblog any of my posts (and for our purposes my posts are posts of which I am the OP) and it contains the word queer, and you want to tag it, then you can use the tags:
#queer
#q word
#queer for ts
#q word for ts
do not use any other tags, like:
#q slur
#q slur reclaimed
#q*eer
#qu**r
#que*r
#q**er
#q***r
#q slur tw
#q slur cw
#q slur //
any version where you're censoring the word itself, or explicitly labelling it a slur
I understand that this is a difficult boundary to enforce, that not everybody will check my bio or respect it. but it's one I insist on and if you can't respect it then I will ask you to delete my post or I will block you. I'm queer, and I refuse to have a fact integral to myself and my identity tagged as a slur on my content. it's practically a trigger for me as far as my reactions are concerned.
thank you for taking the time to read this post.

(TW for use of the q slur in this ask!) aces stop calling it the qu**r community challenge because 1 it’s literally a slur and 2 it’s not your place to “reclaim” a slur on behalf of an entire community! also! stop telling people to just “reclaim” it!! reclaiming slurs is an incredibly personal thing, and not everyone wants to! thanks, your friendly neighbourhood nb lesbian :) (sorry this was just a rant provoked by a string of posts i saw on my dash earlier hfksf)
yah I know it’s honestly horrible! Like if u want to use it for yourself okay good but don’t push it on others please have some decency
