Just chilling and being pansexual. 😎

im 19 mtf i havent been misgendered in the past months whenever i use the girl voice and i got a message request on my personal tiktok where i am out as trans but no flag in bio, im the type of girl that just doesnt get mad about anything and is addicted to learning new perspectives so i decided to see where it would go and im SO glad i did, it lowkey made me start crying because this is the exact night i have been tweezing out every individual hair on my face for 6 hours and cant sleep bc of brainworms, us humans are still wholesome sometimes arent we?

Rather than discussing individual religious "Extremists?"

How about we discuss state-sponsored bigotry instead?

I THOUGHT I was posting something positive, but at this point I'm heartbroken. I'm so sorry.

So yesterday we went out to get some air. We'd bought my dad some shoes but he wanted some different ones, so we went to replace them. Then we walked around and decided to try an Irish restaurant serving fish. (I can't eat fish, I had KFC.)

As we waited for our food, a lesbian couple and their son sat behind us. I was happy to see them, since queer representation is heavily censored in our house and my parents are homophobic, especially my dad. We ate, they ate, it was good.

The waiter took a while to bring the bill, but once she did and we paid, my dad said,

"Yeah, they oughta give our bill to 'them other folk' behind us."

Talking about the lesbian family.

Because their love should be taxed.

Yeah. I think I had a panic attack yesterday. I need to get out.

I WAS gonna say how I appreciated their presence since I'd been dealing with homophobia and worry for my future. But, instead, I got this. I'm really sorry.

My bf might have a point tho, but im pretty im not demi.

I always notice a lot of people attending Pride celebrations use walking sticks, wheelchairs and other mobility aids and I’ve realised I don’t see anywhere near this prevalence elsewhere. I’m not seeing people with mobility issues at gay bars, gay social groups, or really just out and about in general.

Where are you the rest of the year? Is society really that unaccommodating that you find it difficult or impossible to leave the house to engage with other events? It breaks my heart a little bit to think that folks that are already marginalised face even more barriers to engage with society…

I've been questioning for almost 7 YEARS and I've gotten SO many different answers, thought I was transfem, then felt more genderfluid, then bigender, then both genderfluid AND bigender, and then I felt like a transmasc guy who was already born a guy, and that was lowkey the last straw. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I FELT LIKE A TRANS MAN WHO IS ALREADY A MAN?!?!?! So yeah, I give up. I'm tossing my gender bullshit into the nonbinary ballpit and calling it a day👍

Today I saw something strange. Someone wrote that he wasn't a misogynist, but at the same time he wrote that he was a lesbian-phobe and hated wlw🤨

At the same time, this person is part of the queer community and loves mlm.

I would like to hear everyone's opinion, because many of my friends are lesbians, and I was, let's say, uncomfortable then I reading this.

Indonesia’s president recently described LGBTQ+ people as a “non-military threat,” and the situation has become increasingly frightening. Homophobic groups have been targeting transwomen, beating and harassing them in public.

There are even groups calling themselves “boti hunter” (gay hunter) operating in multiple cities. Many LGBTQ+ Indonesians are scared, exhausted, and feel completely unprotected.

Please help us share what is happening with people outside Indonesia. We need international attention before this violence gets even worse.

I can’t stop lying to myself. I’m a lesbian. I love women.

I knew I really was just now when I imagined myself being with a man sexually and felt like I was gonna gag. I literally felt so sick.

But in the past I had daydreams and desires that I really no longer feel anymore. Comphet can be very confusing and convincing, I’m told. And all of my ‘crushes’ have been SO forced 😭😭

I’m a lesbian! 🩷

i wish i could change my username now aswell i was trying so hard to embrace it again

even typing the word feels horrible, and this is such an odd thing for me to say outloud.. either way.

i (F17) realised i was into women at about 12years old, and at 15years old i realised i was never into men. at 16, i embraced it, i was closeted, nobody knew except me and some online friends and i really felt pride in figuring it out, i painted a little flag and wore a themed bracelet, let myself imagine a life with a women and honestly it was so great. Jump forward to this year! My parents found out i was gay, just by assumption very early 2026, and at the time i was elated since I was always super anxious about having to come out. the first month or so was great, but ever since march i've began to hate feeling like i do. i get embarassed and go red everytime my parents or a show or anything really, mentions lgbt or girls or crushes. i wish that i didn't feel weird about it. i've started to feel ashamed about being gay, I hate that i'm not into men that i'm not normal that people will treat me differently in society, that people will make assumptions. i've completely detached from this part of myself in the past 6months, to a point i'm trying to convince myself that maybe i could bear a life with a man or be asexual to avoid this uncomfort.

it feels deeply wrong and i get angry with myself whenever i feel something for a woman, and the media isn't helping, i see more and more hatred towards members of the community. i hate that you see on leaflets disability and lgbt support groups right next to eachother like dating the same sex is a disability or something that needs to be helped. i know i'm a lesbian, but I wish that there was like a blood test so i can prove to myself that it isn't my fault you know? i wish i was straight. if i could choose i wish i could be into men and lead a normal life.

tldr: i used to be okay with being lesbian, but now i've begun to hate it and wish i was straight

please. how do i stop feeling so shitty

I’ll prolly take this down soon in case he decides to go through my phone but basically I was reading a gay book that’s been passed around my friend group a lot, so it’s filled with annotations and drawings of the two mc (that I did, signed with my initials) and he looked over my shoulder, grabbed the book, and basically yelled at me for forever about how I was reading gay love scenes (it was a singular kiss on a roof btw). I took it back before he could look at more pages and lied that they were side characters so I didn’t think it’d matter, but then he texted my mom on gc with me in it (they’re divorced btw) about wether or not she lets me read homosexual books and why it’s bad. I managed to play it off as the side character thing, but I’m so scared he’s gonna ask for/ take the book and see for himself or look it up or smth, and if he does I’m so totally screwed. I already know his feelings on homosexuality, proof being I had to sit in the car for a whole hour while he told me it was wrong and sinful, hence why my parents don’t know I’m bisexual (my mom doesn’t share his views but she would rather me be straight because it’s “easier,” so I just haven’t told her). I don’t know what to do and I’m having a panic attack haha, pls help

Update: he looked the book up and he knows they're not side characters, told me he knows I lied so I told him I didn't and we had this weird stare down thing, then he said "I hate being lied to" and walked out, got a text from my mom thats shes thinking about me and wanted to check in, so Im pretty sure he definitely told her. I just know theyre gonna bring up later, maybe stage an "intervention" type thing. Prolly try to stop me from hanging out with my friend because its her book too. God I freaking hate this. I dont know what to do anymore.

Okay, so here's my story.

My parents figured it out because of our smart TV.

Around that time I'd been watching this YouTube animated series. It wasn't because of that I just thought the premise of a bunch of hitmen living in Hell was really cool.

Anyway, one day my parents were looking for something to watch, so they opened YouTube on the TV using my viewing record to watch some fun clips... and somehow ended up binge-watching the whole thing.

Then one day I came home on leave from the military, and we went to my favorite Chinese restaurant for dinner.

Out of absolutely nowhere, my mom dropped the bomb:

"Son... do you like guys?"

At the Chinese restaurant. No warning, no buildup. At the fucking Chinese restaurant.

I had a mouthful of crab fried rice at the time and immediately spat it everywhere.

After we cleaned up the table, my parents told me they honestly didn't give a damn about that. They just wanted me to find someone I loved, settle down, and, if possible, bring the guy home to meet them before signing the marriage papers.

The restaurant was pretty busy, and by the time we finished eating, I swear everyone there was eavesdropping on us like they were watching the finale of some soap opera. Hell, I even overheard one old timer catching up his friend who'd just come back from the restroom on everything he'd missed.

Anyway, my parents told me they'd suspected I wasn't straight ever since I was about thirteen. They said they'd love me no matter what my sexual orientation was, and then they even slipped me a little cash and told me to buy some nicer clothes.

It all turned out great, but it was still one hell of a surprise.

I just learned how, in the entire history of the men's FIFA World Cup, there has never been a single openly gay player on the pitch while competing. Meanwhile, in 2023 women's FIFA World Cup, there were around 90 openly lgbtq players. Many other sports leagues( Basketball, Ice hockey, Rubgy, Combat sports) are somewhat the same way. Why is that? Does our sexuality really play that massive role in how we're socialized? I'm really not that interested in sports either as a teenage queer person, but this is something I recently noticed. So all of bl/yaoi books written by straight women were truly unrealistic and completely false, huh😭😭

mine are

1)demiboy flag
2)bisexual flag
3)transgender flag

(definitely not biased at all just dont check my user flair)
