Who can’t love this guy?

also the story of heteronormative assimilation, whoops

^^^ Assimilation makes me grumpy.

yeaaaaaah uh i did not read it that way at all

I’m about to be real grumpy.

The same people who say shit like  the above (not DTWPS) are some of the same people who piss and moan about how homophobic Black folks are.

And here’s a Black man, the president of the US speaking about the multiplicity of acceptance of gay folks, and y’all just have to nitpick?

Look, I get it, I’m as skeptical of homonormativity and everything as anyone else. Shit, I’m even more so, because I am Black and Trans* and there is no way for me to even begin to be represented by the HRC and their like. But, that said, I say come the fuck on. Have your ish about homonormativity, but acknowledge this is a big fucking deal, to have a man who has admitted he is making his own journey to acceptance come out and say that it’s important actually be accepting. Not tolerating, but accepting.
