LGBT+
A community I'm proud to be in.
A community I stand up for.
A community I feel safe in.

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention this.

I'm gay.
I mean like super gay.
I'm gayer then Albus Dumbledore
I'm gayer then Kevin Keller
I'm gayer then Kieth Kogane
Or should I say Kieth KoGAYne
You know what, I'm gayer then fucking Johnlock.

I'm sorry to interrupt.
But would you stop for one moment, please.
Your not gay, your a lesbian.

A 'correction' I get a lot.
But what gives you the right to correct something like that.

Your a straight cisfemale, who definitely knows the in's and the out's of the LGBT community.
Heck I bet you don't even know what cisfemale means.

So what gives you the right to correct MY gayness.
To correct MY preferred orientation.
To correct MY homosexuality.

You see that word MY.
That  means MINE and not YOURS
so kindly FUCK OFF.
