General Discussion

Hey what's up I'm back! And I've finally found myself after 4 years of confusion!

Hi, I'm a cis closeted lesbian who doesn't feel safe irl, and I have no real LGBTQ+ friends. I'm super scared to go out and make LGBTQ+ friends irl because I am currently surrounded by family and important "acquaintances", that are not very accepting to say it lightly, and I'm scared that they will harm me if they found out.

But they don't know much of my online presence, which means I can have as many friends as I want on here. So uh, lets be friends and talk about stuff!

@icewingsarecool Depends on your mom. If she has a bad view on the LGBTQ+ comunity and you fear that she might react in a negative way, dont come out. It is great to be proud of who you are but you need to prioritize your safety as well.

Thanks for the help. My mom hasn't really expressed interest in LGBT+ things, and I don't see her really getting mad an me because she hasn't expressed any disinterest/hate on it. I'll take those in to my mind. Thanks.

I tell everyone that I'm a woman, but I don't feel right saying it. I mean I feel comfortable in my own body, but I feel like I should say my gender is "Me". Is that a thing? I don't even know. I grew up in the 80s and 90s when things like gender and sexual identity was just being talked about (and not in a good way).

My husband knows this and supports me which is wonderful. I tell my daughters that I love them just the way they are. If they discover that they identify as bi, or trans, or ace, or cis, or gender fluid, or anything else, I'd love them just as much, because it isn't possible for me to love them more than I do now.

idek at this point
like my mind is a bit haywire atm lmao
currently im p sure im a dude and bi/aro/ace/i don't know

I just started thinking I might be Aromantic a month or so ago, and it kind of fits, but also girls are still really cute? Help
Like I get the butterflies in my stomach and whatnot but I’m not sure how to categorize it considering I’ve never had a full on crush

i am someone who is sexually into all genders but romantically into girls only but i just generally don't like to label myself and thus i have never even come out to anyone, everyone just kind of seems to know. and i don't even wanna do the whole coming out thing and labelling myself because eh... like labels stress me out so much

Bi/aro genderfluid buddy here!

Back in summer last year, I started thinking I might be trans-male. A month later I stopped, only for the masculine feeling to return. Around October was when I finally realised I was genderfluid. I was so surprised (and glad) there was a definition for my gender!

Once I accepted my gender identity, it all became so clear what I was. I realised I was able to recall feeling like this since I was around seven.

I'm female and always thought I'm bi but turns out I'm actually ace haha
Biromantic tho and my heart's been in a (one sided) roller-coaster for almost a year, gimme a break man
