I’ll start: “Shoving x down our throats”
the amount of people who have told me i’m one of the good ones because “at least you don’t shove gayness down our throats,” or “i’m fine with it if they dont shove it down our throats” has made me cringe whenever i hear that phrase used in any context, even harmlessly. how about you guys?
i disagree. it’s quite some effort to police yourself for uncommon words that aren’t slurs in your own dialect compared to the odds of perpetuating harm.
or maybe i have an undiagnosed language processing difficulty.
fair enough. i don’t use that word anyway. i wouldn’t expect anyone else to do that, but personally i am just going to, not do that
