Today I went to Starbucks with my genderqueer non-binary friend. I had a bagel, green tea with honey and a late to go and xi had a salad and a water because xi is watching xir weight. We were sitting eating and talking quiet happily when suddenly we heard a little child speaking to his/her brother/sister (my apologies for not knowing these kids’ real gender identities; their father called them “boys” but you can never be too sure, considering the white cissexist bullshit that was about to come out of this father’s mouth, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were girls).
Kid B (the younger one) says to kid A, “you’re a lesbian!” and quick as a flash the father lies, “Boy cannot be lesbian, drink your lemonade!”
WTF JFC! I WAS APPALLED! This is horrible! I almost jumped over the table and across the chairs and punch that asshole in the face! I mean SO MANY THINGS WRONG with what he said to the poor child. Boys CAN be lesbians if they identify as lesbians. I have a number of cis male lesbian friends. He was blatantly erasing their entire lived experiences with such an ignorant lie! I couldn’t believe what we were hearing (xi was in the brink of tears). The kid was 4 years old. How does that father KNOW that his child won’t grow up to identify as a lesbian! Assholes like this is why I firmly believe cis assholes are scum! This is why I believe in Tumblr Feminism!! FUCK THE CIS HETERO PATRIARCHY AND RAPE CULTURE!!
I should not that during all this time, the mother was sited next to this man. She kept quiet all the time, no doubt she was abuse by the bruise marks on her face.
I know most people in Tumblr DON’T believe in the “patriarchy”, “rape culture”, or equal rights to non-cisgender people. However if you do as I do, and you seek justice as I seek it, then I ask to please reblog!
