:: All that being said, as a side-note… this isn't really relevant to the main thrust of the discussion, but it really isn't the done thing to question/ask people to "prove" that they are a member of the queer community. Queerness is a matter of self-identification, so by definition, someone identifying themselves as gay, genderqueer, etc. should be understood to be, and treated as such, incontrovertibly, until such a time as they themselves state otherwise. <span style="color: #baa3d6;font-family:Comic Sans;">[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|'''Scrooge MacDuck''']]</span> <span style="color: #baa3d6;">[[User_talk:Scrooge MacDuck|⊕]]</span> 23:26, 16 March 2022 (UTC) | :: All that being said, as a side-note… this isn't really relevant to the main thrust of the discussion, but it really isn't the done thing to question/ask people to "prove" that they are a member of the queer community.

:::I understand. I did not mean to imply that we should go around asking people if they really are part of the queer community. But if we are going to cite someone's opinion, it does help to know for certain that they are representative of how a large number of people in that community feel.
