Thank you so much for this episode - from the DadTea to the bars to reclaiming and the aftercare. It struck such a chord in a healthy and respectful manner. And Kristopher, I hear and understand about therapy. Selfcare matters.

2024-02-22 05:04:01 +0000 UTCMaybe it's the linguist in me, but it seems to me f*g should be reclaimed for cigarettes, not people. Meanwhile, reclaiming queer (for people) makes perfect sense to me as being gay (or other identities) is, by definition, queer, in that we aren't usual; and that shouldn't be a problem. Indeed, thinking of what my life would be like as a straight guy, I'm glad I'm queer, being straight just sounds so boring to me. As long as I can be who I am without being persecuted for it, being gay is pretty awesome, and I embrace the queerness of it.
