queeranarchism:

Thing to consider: can you make whatever you are organizing accessible for people who fall just outside your own ‘group’ but may need the same thing?

Are your resources on access to hormones and surgeries accessible to gendernonconforming cisgender people who want either?

Are your resources on same-sex adoption accessible to that straight person who is in a relationship with that one exception to their usual orientation? or who wants to co-parent with their best friend?

Can you create a supportive environment that welcomes human complexity and paradox? Or are you gonna get stuck in a ‘you have to be this kind of person to be deserving of our help’ thinking?

‘Cause like, that wider approach, it’s worth it.

How do you figure

Like, with very little extra effort you actually get to help people who have a need that no one else is providing for,

while widening the understanding that these systems of oppression actually hurt everyone and like,

we start creating revolutionary change through solidarity and helping each other get what we need, which the system is holding from us by force.
