    Also, as a gay man, I’d love to click on an article about LGBT issues and not see a drag queen.

    “I’d really love to stop seeing reminders of the people in my community who have a much bigger target on their back than I do, it makes me uncomfortable” 🙄

      I think they’re complaining that none of the other groups in the queer umbrella get represented visually. Always representing one marginalised group is indeed bad if it’s always taking a place that could be representing a lot of different groups.

      Also big assumption that they aren’t a bigger target than drag queens.

        It’s kind of hard to support some people in the community when they compare the size of their gayness, and make the world — ironically — black and white.

        🌈 It’s a rainbow in all shades, and even the drab colors need love.

      I’d really like to see a mixture of various types in the community so I feel more welcome and people outside the community see that it is a diverse group of people.
