and what is scary about straights?
srs answer: straight (and cis) people are the people who are violent and hateful towards the lgbt community and lgbt people grow up being afraid of them and what they do to people like us because of our sexualities or gender identities. constantly being in an environment where you are at risk of being bullied, beaten, ridiculed or in any other way a victim of violence or discrimination makes you wary of being open about your identity. fearing straight people is not irrational, it is something lgbt people have to do because every single lgbt person has been, have known somebody, or have heard of somebody who was a victim of a hate crime and/or homophobia/transphobia and believe it or not but straight cis people are actually the people who most commonly do these things :'o
yes, there are straight people who aren't homophobic or transphobic and who would never hurt someone because of their sexuality or gender identity. yay gold stars to them or whatever lmao but there is no way for lgbt people to know what someone is like concerning lgbt issues so it's not weird to be afraid of Potential Bad Straights.
there are people who will be like "omg but if i'm afraid of gay people i'm a homophobe so this is heterophobia!!!!???!?!?!?" yea no because gay people are murdered for being gay and straight people feel attacked because suddenly they're supposed to not be asshats to other people lol.
I don't mean that i am afraid of every single cishet individual i meet, that's not it. but straight and cis people are scary because of homophobia and transphobia.
now, what i wrote was mostly a joke because someone wrote something that basically said "omg there are too many lgbt people in the world and it scares my fragile straightie heart!!" and that's stupid because there is no reason to be scared or upset that half the people in a thread on an animal crossing forum have voted that they aren't straight. farther back in the thread there were people who basically said that straight people were a minority and were all whiny about it, which is why i mentioned the Poor, Oppressed Straight Minority Of The Bell Tree Forums and offered my sympathies to this group that is so terribly mistreated. (again, this is not serious, straight people aren't victims of hate on tbt and people with other sexualities existing does not count as oppression against straight people.)
what i'd like 2 write but bc you seem to b confused abt it i won't keep the joke going bc it gets weird but i still want 2 write it: i am heterophobic ?????? ?? uwu'''''
