Gracefully Told

Let’s leave homophobia and transphobia in 2025.

I’m sharing this because I’ve experienced it firsthand. I’ve been verbally attacked and threatened simply for existing—and I know how damaging that moment is, long after it’s over.

Homophobic and transphobic language is not “just words.”
It is violence. It is intimidation. It is dehumanization.

Using slurs or degrading language toward q***r and trans people is no different than a white person using the n-word against a Black person. Both are rooted in histories of oppression, meant to strip dignity and signal harm.

Words are powerful. Use them wisely.
