    Maybe having to go through that hardship of rejecting someone because you’re just not into something fundamental and unchangeable about them such as their gender representation will make you have empathy and understanding for queer people and the struggle they face daily where only about 1 in 10 people they’re attracted to will be attracted back.

    Exposure to queer media helps build understanding and empathy. Erasing it erodes that understanding and empathy.
