I frankly believe that internalized homophobia and radfem ideology has framed this argument in a way that can't be dispelled with facts alone, which was the point of my carrd. It's the meaning of those colors and the meaning of the flag itself that makes the flag sacred.
The damage that this mindset creates is not only harmful to Gay Men, but Lesbians as well.Ī layout of stripes and colors does not make a flag unique in any way. Dear reader, while the internet may have convinced you otherwise, Gay Men and Lesbians have solidarity built by tears and blood.
This carrd is framing Gay Men as oppressors of lesbians on the basis of having similar flag layouts. Take in how the creator has worded it for a moment. I'll let the screenshot speak for itself at first. > Before we get into this, I want to make a statement regarding the history of this carrd. The flag above is made by Original creation post can be found here.
