Queer people have been gatekeeping each other forEVER. When I was in college in the early 90s there were huge shouting matches about whether bi people should be allowed in the (as it was then called) Lesbian/Gay Alliance. It wasn't coming from straights because they weren't involved at all. Second-wave lesbian feminism was unbelievably hostile to trans and bi women. (See Michigan Womyn's Music Festival). Gay male culture has been historically often extremely brutal to trans men and bi men. That's not even getting into the huge fights between more mainstream-friendly, assimilationist factions vs the more radical ones + the drag, camp, leather contingents. Let's not have too rosy a view of "the queer community" because like they say, those who don't know history, etc.

I see a lot of these same arguments that I hoped were settled 30 years ago coming up again and again and again because younger queers keep reinventing the shitty gatekeeping wheel.
