Miss me with that gay

As I walked back to my dorm after Crossing the Line, the classic frosh tradition, I felt angry. My name is Connor. I am gay. I am out. I am proud of who I am. I have also said homophobic things. I have acted homophobic. I have made people feel less than because of their sexuality. I crossed the line because I know I have made mistakes, because I know that my homophobic actions are wrong, that they are inexcusable, that I must confront the fact that I have acted immorally.

I crossed the line because even little comments — microaggressions — can cause serious harm, and I wanted to acknowledge that fact. I felt angry because of how few people crossed that line. I wished they had crossed that line, but I understand the difficulty of doing so. Perhaps they were worried how they might appear, or they worried that they would be judged for their previous actions.

Perhaps they did not understand or remember any small passing comments that they had made. Indeed, as harmful as microaggressions can be, and for how indelibly they can remain in the mind of the receiving party, they are troublingly easy to forget, to dismiss as mere passing comments. However, we cannot afford to merely dismiss these actions or refuse to confront them.

Admitting our discriminatory behavior — or even realizing it in the first place — is hard. However, if we want to confront homophobia — or racism, or sexism, or classism or most any type of discrimination — we must find the courage to talk openly about our shortcomings, about the mistakes we have made, about our own culpability in injustice. We have to listen to those who have the courage to admit those mistakes.

We must encourage people to hold themselves accountable by separating bad actions from the label of bad person. The pursuit of a more just, equitable future begins not with false pretensions of our own virtue and innocence in injustice but with honest introspection and conversation about our failures and culpability in that injustice. My name is Connor Toups.

I have acted homophobically in the past. I have also undoubtedly said sexist things, said classist things, said racist things, said ableist things. I am complicit in injustice. I admit to those failings. I ask perhaps not for your forgiveness but for your understanding. I ask that you consider your own failings and acknowledge your own complicity in discrimination. I ask this because these things are wrong, because we must be held accountable, because we should be the ones to hold ourselves accountable.

Opinion by Connor Toups. I crossed the line. I looked around to see who else had crossed the line.
