Men in a sports utility vehicle speed past a pedestrian and shout “you’re fucking gay, man” and “gaaaaaay.” The pedestrian waves at them, with joyous tears in his eyes and says “thank you boys, you’ve helped me come to terms my with my sexuality!” The men in the car consult a list of names and one asks “ok, who’s next on the list?” They pass by another pedestrian and shout “you’re trans!” and “admit you’re trans, idiot!”
Also, pretty sure those guys have been in my subconscious every night.
I honestly low-key love it when someone in a car yells out “FAGGOT” when I’m walking down the street. I just give them the gayest little wave and yell back “hey girl!” with a huge smile. I enjoy the validation that I succeed in being visibly queer.
Of course, I live somewhere very safe and decently queer-friendly. I probably wouldn’t enjoy it if I felt in danger, but it’s typically a bunch of teenagers who are clearly in their edgy phase.
