《Book of LGBTQIAP+》My Teacher
Advertisement
I've been doing a lot of thinking recently about LGBTQIAP+ stuff, and I started thinking about the PSHE lesson we had. We were talking about sexualities and genders (which the teacher knew nothing about by the way; I knew more than she did and I kept correcting her and goving definitions) and she said something like this:
Life has lots of boxes with different labels, and don't label yourself too soon, because its very hard to get out of one of those boxes and into another one.
Thinking about it, that is actually kind of rude. She's basically saying that you are too young to label yourself because you could be wrong. What about all the people who are sure? People can change their labels, even if it's difficult. Fighting through the difficulty is better than just listening to people who say it's hard to change your label.
My pansexual friend and I also made a list of all the sexualities and genders we could think of. She looked at the list and didn't know all of them. Then she said something along the lines of this:
Don't you think that that's too many words and descriptions? Back in the old days, people used to just love who they loved and that was it.
I hate to break it to you teacher, but that's not true. Throughout history, LGBTQIAP+ people have had to fight for rights, and we will always face hate and discrimination.
Anyway, that was my rant about my teacher. So yeah. See you next time!

They are Smol
What if Humanity wasn't the apex predator among the stars? What if those true apex predators saw mankind and came to the same conclusion: Holy cow they're all adorable. The They are Smol series takes place in the near future after a disasterous first contact and the subesquent accidental invasion of Earth. Humanity is being uplifted for many reasons; they provide new culture and art on the galactic scene, sure. They can also look at scientific and social problems in a new light - absolutely. Mainly though, it's just to get them to do something productive with their lives and stop setting everything on fire- Humans, for their part, are oscillating between abject fear at the otherness of their new neighbors and the frustration that they keep placing things on the top shelf.
