Ive been fighting for AGP rights on the fedi for 3 years now, & ive faced a colossal amount of pushback. but at the same time, ive met some wonderful AGPallies who let me know that im safe, that im seen, & that im supported.
it's people like the ones in this thread that keep me coming back to this site. People like these that give me hope. that maybe one day, fedi can be a little bit better than it was the day before.
@fiore@nyx@penny@jackie im so glad you called us here today. sometimes, issues like this really do need to be hashed out, admin-to-admin, in order to make fediverse a truly safe/inclusive place .
I think one small thing that would really help the autoandrophile community is if each of the admins tagged here wrote a public post in support of the autoandrophiles on their instance, letting them know that we have their backs.
Too often, Ive been afraid to speak out about my experience as an autogynephile because im scared of being banned & losing all my connections. Just letting people know that they can speak their minds w/out fear goes a long way towards fostering a truly safe space.
id be interested in hearing @nyx 's thoughts on this, as a queer elder with lived experiences 👀
