@esp this is so important for a lot of folks. I got annoyed on Birdland a while back, when I saw very public out ppl saying 'you to be vocal & clear abt where you are & being out'

No, *we* don't need to force people to do anything. It's not everyday everything for everybody.

@ArtistMarciaX I've seen the same sentiment in quite a lot of different places and frankly I'm kinda sick of it. It's harmful in my eyes. People should only come out when its safe and when they're ready.

More acceptance would be great, but at the cost of what? For me, if it's at the cost of innocent individuals it is too much.

@esp Exactly. I saw it peak on my own feed when Janelle Monae released Dirrty Computer. "She needs to be xyz"

Which then pours into pushin other ppl to be out, or present a certain way...But I don't think it's every day ppl MUST present themselves how others feel they should. That literally does nothing and say nothing abt caring for ppl's safety and mental health

@ArtistMarciaX Oh geez, saying people should BE a certain way or present a certain way is absolute bullshit as well. Didn't we want to break AWAY from that shit?

@esp You mean the same ppl that want to abolish gender are those that simultaneously try to hold it up??

i wish

@ArtistMarciaX I mean more like, weren't be supposed to be accepting of everyone regardless of how they express themselves or what they are?

@esp Ah yes.

But you know...ppl love to ruin a good thing

@ArtistMarciaX *sigh* this is true.

@esp speaking for myself, I just gotta be at it, living my own truth and not imposing on others.

and stop others from imposing on me

@ArtistMarciaX Pretty much what I do too! Live and let live!

@sweetietheyknow absolutely! you don't have to whatsoever. For me its a mix between "I don't want to, it's not relevant and I just don't care"

@sweetietheyknow I feel like its nobody's business, even.

@esp it’s so frustrating, the guys and their astonished-eyebrow-wagging disapproval, I guess well-meaning doctors, HIGHSCHOOL omg. I see people like me tweeting at celebrities to come out it’s infuriating. We don’t owe anyone a coming out, or any explanation therefor.

@sweetietheyknow Exactly. It's only relevant if its a medical emergency regarding you, they may need to know such things, but in a medical emergency privacy is not a thing anymore so yeah

Other than that it's nobodies damn business
