there's a massive cadre of people on here who can best be described by the phrase "be gay do war crimes"

Hello Mister Gaiman!

I'm currently reading "Genderqueer" by Maia Kobabe for one of my university classes on Queer Embodiment, and found this little gem. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Morpheus helping out a questioning genderqueer person on their journey to self-discovery sounds about right!

tbh it doesn't rly hurt teenagers to incorrectly id as ace like... what's the worst than could happen? they don't have sex till they're older?? lol

"ohh but it'll take them longer to realize they're actually gay" i know my experiences aren't universal but like. if i wasn't ready to face my lesbianism then i was Not Ready, you could've eliminated every other label in existence and i still wouldn't have accepted it. if anything, the ability to try out different labels helped me learn about myself, explore the community, and accept that maybe not being straight wasn't so bad.

also lots of people identify as bi before realizing they are gay, lots of people identify as gay before realizing they're bi, lots of people identify as gay before realizing they're trans, etc etc etc!!! exploring and getting it wrong is a necessary part of the process!!! why is it so different for aroace identities?????
