Are there ways that you are able to signal queerness?
People keep assuming my partner and I are two straight women, and it’s just awkward sometimes. I know my partner would like if people saw us as a visibly queer couple, so I was hoping for tips.
Usually I try to engage in “PDA” like holding hands or kissing in public, but even that doesn’t seem to always work (I have done this and had a waiter still assume we’re relatives rather than partners).
Visible rainbows? I think that’s a symbol even straight people know.
I can try it but straight allies wear rainbows too, at least I’ve seen it and don’t know if people will feel confident it signals the person I’m with is my partner. Maybe we need matching shirts or something 😆
Those “i’m with ->” shirts except it says whatever you call each other.
