Pff, bored rich people? Tumblr sjws always call Tumblr "safe space for us queer, nonbinary, poc marginalized voices"!

Well, all I can tell is that they're the segment of marginalized people who seem to have the energy and many hours of free time a day to engage in protracted online flame wars and write thousands of words worth of meta about TV shows. Not a terribly representative segment, to be sure.

I guarantee that like 75% of people claiming to be queer/nonbinary/poc on Tumblr are lying through their teeth about it. That might even be a generous number.

The more profiles I see of "nb demiboy greyacesexual panromantic anarchosocialist", the more I feel LGBTQ turning into a massive joke, and I really don't like it.

On the offchance this is a real thing... what the fuck is polykin?

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)

I think polykin usually means multiple kin identities. I.e spaceship-kin, owlkin, cupcakekin.

*blinks*

Most otherkin I know* have multiple kin types in the first place. I've never heard them refer to themselves as anything else. We need a special word for that now? We have not only hit the point of ridiculousness, we have blown WAY past it.

* Yes, I have friends who identify as otherkin. They're the types that have only mentioned it in regards to discussion about otherkin (ie, "Oh yeah, that's me") and don't make a big deal of it; it's part of their spiritual practice. They tend to avoid the fuck out of otherkin communities and are constantly headdesking over "Tumblrkin". They realize it's pretty out there in the first place, and are quite annoyed that these people are only serving to make them all look even more nuts.

Is this bio real? It could be.

I don't get this tumblr trend for putting your sexuality out there for any curious anon to leer at. Shouldn't you get to know someone a little first before informing them what you like to do with your genitals, or any interesting transformative history they might have had?

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
The best (worst, I mean) part is when people legitimize that shit by encouraging self-pigeonholing into special unique snowflake categories like that.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Those labels aren't that weird...

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
I can't even get demisexual and demiromantic straight since they seem to describe almost the same thing, and let's not get started on grey-sexual and grey-romantic. It's like we have to slap a special label on everything lest 0.000001% of the population feel ~left out~ or something, even if the labels are more confusing than helpful.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Demiboy/demigirl/demisexual are downright moronic and snowflakey.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-02 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
This seems really cynical. I think lots of POC/LGBT kids flock to tumblr because it's a safe community in their eyes (not sure if I agree, but whatever). So maybe the reason they are over-represented there compared to the general population is because they feel free to be loud/visible there. I'm sure there are some yahoos out there faking their identity, but I doubt it's as many as 75%.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-02 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine. 73% then.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-03 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
Nah, it's an instant win button. People with desperate need for outside validation will absolutely morph themselves into whatever the people they're trying to impress like best-- and in a good chunk of fandoms on Tumblr, the massive list of queer/race labels (that often don't in any way accurately describe them or how they actually feel) does the trick.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-02 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Safe space. Sure. Ha.
