Saying something about yourself as an introduction is custom. Mentioning that you are queer is not weird or political. It someone sharing a fact about themselves. Me saying that I like girls is also not a political statement. It’s a fact/trivia about me.
The fact that LGBTQ+ people get shit for just existing in society is fucked up and that’s the problem.
First of all, if you don’t think it’s weird to start off an introduction with “I’m queer and I’m a furry” then I’m not sure what to tell you. The vast majority of people in the world are going to be put off by you introducing yourself that way. That’s personal shit you talk about once you get to know somebody not an ice breaker. You can make the argument that people should be more accepting of that kind of thing but the fact is this sort of introduction breaks just about every social norm there is and when you do that willingly you should expect people to get uncomfortable.
Second of all, quit forcing your kinks on everyone else. I don’t care what weird kinky shit you do in your free time but I don’t want to talk to you about it, especially not at work. It doesn’t matter if your thing is women’s feet, dudes buttholes, or guys dressed as a cartoon wolf, the answer is the same, ew stop. It isn’t bigotry to not want to be forced to deal with your sexuality as a prerequisite for interacting with you. I probably don’t want to be interacting with you at all, much less talking about what you like to do with your genitals, so stop oversharing and keep that shit to yourself.
Hello, I am a queer furry, and if you are put off by my introduction then you have a lot of shit you need to reflect on.
It is a social norm for openly queer people to be, wait for it, openly queer. Ever hear of a little thing called Stonewall? Ever hear of the core concept of queer pride?
Bigots feeling bigoted discomfort is solidly a “them” problem, and I should not and will not suppress myself to appease bigots like you.
Sure, you might think it’s weird and annoying to say something like that in an introduction. But please enlighten me, how is being Queer a kink? And how is a man wanting to wear women’s dresses a kink? If thinking of queer- and transpeople makes you horny/angry then that’s your problem. They have a right to exists.
Why are you so triggered and scared of people being different? People have a right to express and be themselves.
Kinky shit should stay out of the public, but that goes for everyone. Not just LGBTQ+ people.
