In a way I’m glad to have your account, to know more about how queerfolk are treated around the world. I’m lucky - I’m out of highschool and in a country of people who would more likely grumble quietly than openly pick on me…
Sorry to hear that you’ve had that experience - mean people will use anything as ammo. It doesn’t make sense to me, though, perhaps they’re looking for an angle, trying to pin you as an easier target than you are - for example, when I thought I was straight, I would frequently get accused of being gay, perhaps because they felt it was an easier subject to ridicule.
I hope you’ve got a comfortable space, everyone deserves to feel comfy and safe!
I’m glad that kind of meanness isn’t as common but I wish it didn’t happen to me so often 😭
(I’ve been called an Egg and aggressively pressured a lot in the past, including being called trans for being gay, WTF?)
