Pro tip: if you're thinking about using terms like "gay panic" in your writing/AO3 tags please do at least 5 minutes of research to understand what the term actually means and why you shouldn't use it to refer to, say, someone panicking about they themselves being gay.

#queer #homophobia #look i know reading about queerness pre-2015 can be extremely depressing #but people have to do better on stuff like this #please learn at least the bare minimum of actual queer history #especially if you're writing slash fiction #and especially if you're writing slash fiction while not being a queer man
