Did the same thing OP. Didn't even have to scroll down before I found this. Gave me a good laugh. [quote]Today I went to Starbucks with my genderqueer non-binary friend. I had a bagel, green tea with honey and a late to go and xi had a salad and a water because xi is watching xir weight. We were sitting eating and talking quiet happily when suddenly we heard a little child speaking to his/her brother/sister (my apologies for not knowing these kids’ real gender identities; their father called them “boys” but you can never be too sure, considering the white cissexist bullshit that was about to come out of this father’s mouth, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were girls). Kid B (the younger one) says to kid A, “you’re a lesbian!” and quick as a flash the father lies, “Boy cannot be lesbian, drink your lemonade!” WTF JFC! I WAS APPALLED! This is horrible! I almost jumped over the table and across the chairs and punch that asshole in the face! I mean SO MANY THINGS WRONG with what he said to the poor child. Boys CAN be lesbians if they identify as lesbians. I have a number of cis male lesbian friends. He was blatantly erasing their entire lived experiences with such an ignorant lie! I couldn’t believe what we were hearing (xi was in the brink of tears). The kid was 4 years old. How does that father KNOW that his child won’t grow up to identify as a lesbian! Assholes like this is why I firmly believe cis assholes are scum! This is why I believe in Tumblr Feminism!! -blam!- THE CIS HETERO PATRIARCHY AND -blam!- CULTURE!! [/quote]
