I said that I don't know what to do at this point. I still have few good ideas. One good idea comes from my housemate who wrote about wearing his pink triangle necklace today.
For a long time, as a queer, agender person who easily passes for male and heterosexual, I've felt a low level of guilt about riding the coattails of that social privilege, but I haven't come up with any good ways to be casually visible as a queer person. I'm going to commission my good friend and wireworker Lisa to make a pink triangle necklace for me that I plan to wear regularly. Perhaps you'd consider taking steps to be be a small but visible presence against the forces of bigotry and hatred too? And commissioning such a symbol of visibility from an individual craftsperson supports the kind of economic relationships I'd like to see more of as well.
