@bluefranklin: Welcome to my 🌈Ted Talk🌈

juliapool :

“this is aave” “this is ballroom culture” it’s literally both. black people and queer people have been fighting for their rights side by side since the beginning, we’re gonna use the same terms as eachother lmao

classseaissues :

So 🌈 culture is just how us black people/ women have been speaking to each other….

Matkai Burmaster :

Love this

Yahyaaaliii :

Grindr is tinder, tinder is hinge 💀 IM DEADDD 😭🤣🤣

🐝♪ ★ΉIIVÉ MIПD★♪🐝 :

I thought a diva is a female version of a hustla?

gracie :

drag name = gamer tag made me lose it

Kayleigh 🌸 :

the spelling is important because "t" can mean something very different to gossip 😭

anya :

people who are talking about aave here really need to have a good look at queer history..

manos._mt :

painting the trade BAHAHHAHAHA

dnlkng11 :

PAINTING THE TRADE 😭😭😭😭

rae :

when will ppl in the comments realize there is an intersection btwn black and queer language for a historical reason 😭😭

Damien ☭𓅛 :

The amount of people failing to realise a lot, if not most, of queer slang and terms are AAVE and nothing else is sending me. It's AAVE. End of discussion.

ari 💫 :

it's so crazy seeing people in the comments miss the fact that intersectionality is a very real thing. the constant infighting in our community is ridiculous i need y'all to touch grass and stick together.

𝑱★𝒄𝒌 :

LAST ONE IS FRYING ME 😭

your_mom13t8 :

Ru Paul is Jesus and drag race is the Bible

ChromaticBandit :

death drop and dip are reversed…

Zankasgooch :

JONATHAN IS GUY FIERI IM DECEASED

sua🪽 :

Dani🐉 :

being camp is telling dad jokes💀💀💀

Elof :

are we not discriminated enough anymore? we used to fight side by side for our rights and now we fight each other over some words? its not that hard to accept and acknowledge where this "gay lingo" originated from.

ItsRhianWilliamson :

What’s with the black grey and white flag?

🇨🇼 Maybe_Its_Me🇳🇱 :

I will die on this hill. It 👏🏾 is 👏🏾 not 👏🏾 a 👏🏾 deaddrop 👏🏾 EVER! It’s a dip. Period. I really don’t know why Michelle Visage keeps calling it a deaddrop anyway.

Thormaster :

Sister I'm pickeled!! 😂😂🤣

Olivia-Louise 🇵🇸🇮🇪 :

The way I said 👀 at the last one

(˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) :

this is aave, and how you’ve labelled these terms is exactly why aave is being reclaimed — many people don’t have a problem when people don’t have a problem when people who aren’t poc use aave, but watering it down to ‚gay culture’ is just wrong
