Like what, besides literally just the most basic "I like gay" shit is in this case "allowed" at pride because of being "integral" to your sexuality/gender? I deadass just dont understand the logic, if it exists.

Like why is leather "allowed" at pride then, is being a biker integral to your sexuality?(I obviously know the cultural history for leathers association with queer culture, but kink has similar history and associations so this isnt a valid differentiation).

Just boggles me real hard, I know its probably just a bad faith argument but I still wanna find out what the actual possible reasoning is.

    I think that might have been like a severely badly phrased version of the argument that purging kink will eventually target shit like drag queens and after that could very easily turn into attempting to purge trans women who are presenting too "sexual" by trans exclusionists, I dont think thats a super serious risk in itself and theres no need to hyperbolise like that to make the current issue into a real problem, but its not as dumb a take as the bad phrased version implies.

        Yeah, Sh0e in particular I saw say drag should not be allowed if kids can be exposed and that anyone that disagreed was a useful idiot for pedos.
