Query A Queer is column in The Post that Ohio University's LGBT Center uses to answer questions, curiosities and queries, and we offer the opportunity to have them be anonymous for whatever the reason. The questions can be as simple or complex as one would like as long as they are geared toward sexuality and gender identity. We ask the questions come from a place of genuine curiosity and not in a malicious way.

Dear Cisgendered/Heterosexual People,

Many of the “frequent fliers” of the LGBT Center have expressed their fear and disdain for the new president and the chaos that has resulted from it. Tiffany Anderson (she/her/hers or they/them/theirs), a junior studying computer engineering, said she has to “take breaks” from social media because it can be too overwhelming to see all of the negative posts toward minorities and for her own well-being she chooses to #negatethehate and focus on things that she can control in her everyday life. She makes it a point to still be informed on the policy changes as they happen but also is aware of the fact that it can be toxic to her well-being if she surrounds her thoughts with all of the problematic language and ideas shared on social media. It’s really easy to get consumed by negativity and fear, but we have to try to remain as positive as possible and make sure we are still caring for ourselves whether that is eating well, getting sleep, painting, meditating, reading, etc.

A: Polyamory is the practice of, or desire of, intimate relationships with possibly more than one partner at a time. The prefix “poly-” is a Greek word that means “many” or “several”; the suffix “-amor” is a Latin word meaning “love.” So polyamory literally means “many loves.”

A: The first point to be made about the importance of LGBT History Month is the reason behind months dedicated to marginalized groups: to make sure these groups feel the validation they deserve and the troubles that they have gone through, and still are going through, are being taken seriously and to raise awareness in order to combat such troubles to make a more inclusive world.

A: Pronouns and identity expression are important because it is how a person views themselves and how someone determines who they are on a much deeper and spiritual level than what is presented on the surface and to other people. To not allow someone to freely be themselves would be to take away a part of who they are and erase them as a person. It is significant because it is a part of someone’s truest self and when someone is misgendered or presumed to be an identity that they are not, it is taking away a part of them and dehumanizing them. It is always best to ask someone instead of making any sort of assumptions and to respect the identity that they choose and the language that coincides with that identity.
