@MLClark I used to be into competition ballroom dancing. The business has a lot of gays in it. I don't know how widespread it is, but the male gays at my dance school were incredibly bigoted against bisexuals of either gender. Called them fence-sittting cowards.
It makes me wonder where they'd be at politically and socially today.
@TwiHusband @MLClark I'm an ally of the fence sitters. What whatever one does with their fence is none of my business.
Seriously, I've seen similar kinds of commentary in articles addressing conflict between trans and lesbian communities. More segmentation by identity rather than a focus on universal human sexual rights and equality under the law.
100%. It's a neoliberal form of activism that lures us into thinking that human rights are contingent on whether others accept your label/identity.
Human rights either exist for all or they do not exist. Anything less than that, and, well... *gestures at the world today*.
@TwiHusband @MLClark I guess it is time for me to post an imperfect, idealist attempt to bring dignity to the world in the shadow of WWII, The UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
