there’s more noise about the use of “queer”

1) if you think it’s a problem for people to bend this slur to their own purposes, that’s a personal thing for you and not an indictment of their politics; if you’re under 50 you never lived an adult life in which queer functioned only as a slur, stop projecting your limited experience on to the rest of us

2) if you’re cis and heterosexual, you aren’t queer, no matter how interesting or kinky you are

3) the personal is political but not vise versa
