FACTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you for sharing !!
Thanks for reading :)
I love this! And I can't even count how many times I've heard other queer people (and myself lol) say things like "am I [whatever] enough if [thing]?" And I agree with what you say! While I love the common answers ("absolutely! You don't have to do anything to be valid" etc), I think that wanting (and giving) even more than validity is so much better.
Thank you for sharing this! It's definitely VALID as both a perzine and a manifesto, but moreover, it's absolutely lovely and wonderful and appreciated 🧡

I like your perspective on this. Made me rethink how I perceive the term "valid" in a queer context. Thank you for making and sharing this!
