i was never able to clearly determine if the stalkers were two men and a woman or three gay men, one effeminate or female identifying. if it is the latter, this person's behaviour would disqualify them from identifying as trans. this would have either been a very aggressive and dominant gay man in drag (a transvestite) or some kind of dom female. i've tended to lean towards them being a dominant transvestite looking for a slave, and misinterpreting me as one. i'm an anarchist that roots the core of my being in ideals of self-ownership; i'm not into bdsm, i'm not submissive and i have no interest in playing the role of anybody's slave.
however, they were trying to force me into some kind of gross male performative behaviour and were entirely unwilling to take no for an answer. it is the same people that were trailing me previously, as i have seen them following me around in the same boring, gas-guzzling muscle cars, which they think are "cool" and i'm supposed to give a fuck about.
i'm going to operate on the hypothesis that my entire disinterest in pride last weekend blew them off, which is partially the result of the condition i'm in. i have never had the slightest interest in gay men, and i would not be remotely interested in going to any sort of gay male sausage party. that's not my thing. i may have gone out dancing to a queer friendly venue full of people with mixed gender identities and sexual orientations if the situation were slightly different. i have gone to gay clubs sporadically in the past, but the logic has been that it's a safe place to dance where i won't get hit on by straight men.
i may be able to get out for the end of the summer, but my focus right now is domestic and will be for a while. with the opening of the new bridge, i won't have to find things to do after concerts anymore, either; i can just bike home. that doesn't mean i won't go to dance clubs at all, but it means i can be a little more selective and not need to find something to do from 12:00-6:00 in the morning, as i'm waiting for the tunnel bus to come back up.
