Maybe I’m not a loud person. Maybe I’m anxious. Maybe I live in a state where I can be shot for being loud about it. Maybe I have other people who need me, and my death would inevitably lead to theirs too. Maybe being loud about it endangers my well-being in other ways.

Or just to circle back to the first point, maybe I just don’t wanna fucking be loud and that’s my goddamn business! It’s not “giving them what they want,” it’s giving me what I want!

Being queer isn’t about being the loudest most obnoxious person in the parade, it’s about being who you are! If you’re loud, good for you! I’ll be home playing video games with my polycule.
