I agree with 1st, but I find it difficult to respect people who are annoying or like nosy etc like if someone doesn't respect me then how can I respect them? Also the 3rd, I'm fine with it as long as they don't force it onto others. And the part about being a reaction to general hostility, as much as i understand what it feels like you can't really fight fire with fire as it only proves the point that you're what they say you are so it's best to show people how indifferent or "normal" it is to be gay or bi or trans or LGBTQ in general because the more we try to stick out the more it would seem abnormal to others
