Whatever, I’m done here, you clearly don’t comprehend how treating LGBTQ+ people as a separate type of human that one needs to study in order to “understand” before we can be treated as fellow humans instead of some curiosity (again - there are literally LGBTQ+ people EVERYWHERE, and there have been throughout ALL of human history. We are not “unusual” to the degree you are pretending we are), is being part of the problem, no matter your intentions.
You are affirming the bigotry.
If you actually want to fight it, I suggest challenging your own biases first, and then trying to listen to others who perhaps have more relevant experience than you do.
E: lmfao, this has nothing to do with “academia”, and everything to do with you treating LGBTQ+ people as an oddity like/in order to “connect” with bigots, because you think confirming their bigotry will somehow get them to listen to you, while all it does is achieve the opposite.
But hey, whatever keeps you from taking any personal responsibility for your own actions and shit (or perhaps just insistently uninformed?) attitude, eh?
No regret on this block job.
And to the other person who thinks asking to be treated equally is “putting on a pedestal” - thanks for proving my point: that we aren’t treated equally, and that when we ask to be we get accused of seeking “special treatment” and compared to a motherfucking disease. Do you people even hear yourselves???
Whether you mean to or not, actually no, it doesn’t matter if you mean it or not, you are both queerphobic assholes perpetuating classic queerphobia. There is simply no debate here, and trying to invoke “academia” isn’t going to get you anywhere since it is the same “academia” that once framed as as perverts and paedophiles. But yeah, I’m the one ignoring reality. Sure.

Right, accuse the entire academia and their decades of study as “bigotry”. Which is ironic of you to say after linking Wikipedia and its sources.
Like I said, read.
