O and too add, you're not an LGBT person (from what I can see on your profile) so you can't really be the voice of all LGBT people so for you to say this (or rather, reiterate this because this is a tumblr post) is kind of talking over all LGBT people so...

How exactly can you tell from my profile that I'm not an LGBT person?

It's not clearly stated, as I said, "from what I can see from your profile."

Yes, but I am unaware of how you could tell my sexuality based on what you see on my profile.

I didn't base your sexuality off of your profile, and if I made it seem like that, then ill rephrase. "It is not clearly stated on your profile if you are LGBT."
Either way, the point is if you are not LGBT, deciding whether or not if those who are gay find using "gay" as an insult is offensive isn't really your call.

There's no point in putting my sexuality on my profile. It's no one's business but my own. I just made a joke, alright? It's just a simple joke and I'm sorry that I posted something that I, and many others, find funny if it offended. Because we're supposed please everyone in this day and age, correct?

I didn't say you had to, however you do realize that if there is no way to tell if you are apart of this marginalized group, then you would be considered talking over that group. It's actually just engrains more oppressive ideology in peoples brains and if you want to continue spreading that information then be my guest. It's not about "pleasing", its being respectful and curteous.

But in essence you do. people that have been exposed to the term "white girl" as it really means (a girl that is white) wont know go by your variation of the term.
And it's also sexist so

How is "white girl" sexist? i think the term youre looking for is rascist, but this isnt rascist. This is funnay. If you find it offensive, then you probably shouldnt be on the interweb. Sowwy.

Sexist and are two different terms and if I wanted to use ra/cist I would. Do not be condescending towards me. And if I find something offensive, then I don't settle with it, I call it out because people shouldn't be saying oppressing sh/t. White girl is sexist because it basically vilifies anyone for doing basically what they want.

You can hide behind ignorance? You can't hide behind something that is just simply a trait someone may posess! i don't hide either, I'm totally out there. Doesnt ignorance mean being...I suppose stupid? Well, for one, I am anything but stupid. I can just take a joke. Lol. But nevermind all that. I can't hear you! I'm drowningggggg!

If you were trying to prove that you weren't ignorant, you couldn't have taken the time to look up the definition? I can take a joke, I have a sense of humor, but things that further oppress my sisters aren't f/cking jokes.

1. I'm too lazy to look up the definition. 2. I really don't give 2 sh/its.. Infact, I'm not sure why I'm still talking to you. xD Dude, lighten up. I'm a girl too. I AM A PROUD WHITE GIRL. I'm white. I'M MOTHERF/UCKING WHITE. So what. She didn't say it to be insulting. Or sexist, or ra/cist. It was just supposed to be funny. But then there are people like you, who take it all serious and stuff. It's rather irritating.

Oh, must be very irritating for you to see people stand up for what they believe in, to stand up to their oppressors and call out the casual sexism like this. It's almost reminds me of how white people used to find it "rather irritating" how POC would stand up for what they believe in. You don't "give 2 sh/its" yet you still reply. You kind of contradict yourself each time. Moreover, as I've said, this is not ABOUT RAC/ISM, it is about SEXISM. It doesn't matter if the person who posted this didn't mean to be offensive, when you say something offensive, it's still damn offensive. If you can't deal with people finding things not funny (because they're oppressive) then maybe you need to question your morale.

A white girl is a term that doesn't have to do with skin colors. If you relate to any of these (http://superwhitegirlproblems.net/), you are essentially a "white girl". Jeez.

Omfg lighten up. It's just making the point that, when used in a certain context, gay is not an insult. Read the quote. You are essentially the kind of girl I am making fun of.

A white girl is basically that cliche girl in high school that drinks Starbucks everyday and stuff like that. You don't have to be white to be a white girl. I dunno, I can't really describe it.
