You are so much more valuable than the throwaway words of some chud who doesn't know shit about what it's like to be queer and to face invalidation for their gender identity.

This armchair expert on Hexbearians and being queer, who has done literally zero research before coming up with their opinions, can have their opinions discarded in the same amount of time that it took them to arrive at their conclusions because no investigation, no right to speak.

I know it won't take away the impact from you but one thing that I gently remind myself of this question: Whose opinion matters more to me - the person that is important in my life or the person who is of no more importance than a random stranger passing in the street?

I try to keep in mind that I should weigh people's opinions based on how important they are to me rather than doing the opposite.
