Because activism is frustrating from what I’ve heard. Because it exposes you to scrutiny. Activism is hard partly because we hardly know any other MAPs IRL. So there’s little “base” and hence, little motivation to join.

This is 2025.
So, I guess it's not that difficult.
You can if you try.
Nobody else is going to fight for our rights or do advocacy for us.
Unless you're not publicly out you can't do IRL activism.
Still, each of us can do activism in whatever little ways we can.
I tried connecting with other activists.
I got little response. Obviously for a good reason.
No MAP would directly tell a MAP they don't know that they are interested in MAP activism.

I've actually talked to a few activists, like Katie Cruz. Try PMing her.
