*holding you gently but firmly like a broody chicken* the use and reclamation of slurs is highly subjective. especially on the internet you do not know the identity and experiences of those around you. if you find a word others take pride in upsetting, blacklist it. block people who do not tag it. I don’t make my trauma your responsibility. it is my own that I must manage when choosing to partake in social circles.

I don’t need to disclose that to you or anyone.#people are going to use language that makes other people uncomfortable to describe themselves. they did it when they proudly #called themselves ‘students of Latin’ and ‘ladies of violets’ and ‘gay’ and ‘queer’ and ‘boygirl/girlboy/etc etc.’#if you personally have a problem w that it is you personal problem. you do not get to police the language people use and identify with.
