The fact I am an atheist is inextricably linked to the fact I’m queer.
The general fact that a person is an atheist, and the general fact that a person is queer, have no inextricable links to other facts.
The above two statements are linked.
There’s no gatekeeping for atheists. You don’t have to be an atheist the “right” way. Anyone who’s willing to proclaim that there are no gods is welcome. In the same way, you can be queer and never have to worry if you’re too gay to be bi or too bi to be gay. Queer is for everyone who’s ever been bitched at by people who think “asexual” isn’t a valid orientation or want you to clarify what “genderfluid” means. I choose the communities whose members choose themselves, and I’m proud to be there.
