LGBTQ celebs you didn't know were a member of the Alphabet Mafia
by HappySpecter
Last post
 December 27th, 2025
...See more I don't know why, but this past week I have been a little obsessed with finding out the sexualities of actors in queer movies. So here's the game: list a few celebs who you've learned are LGBTQIA that surprised, or excited you! I'll start: I am starting to fall in love with the movie Happiest Season, and upon doing some research I learned that Aubrey Plaza identifies as bisexual, and Kristen Stewart identifies as queer. Also, of course, Dan Levy is amazing (who is gay, in case you missed it). One more: I have rediscovered my love for musician Phoebe Bridgers, who identifies as bisexual.

I want to come out to people I trust, but Im still scared
by JustaMii
Last post
 April 24th, 2025
...See more So, over time Ive figured out I'm bi. I didn't really surprise me too much when I figured it out, and looking back at my past actions and such its a wonder I didn't figure it out sooner. One of my main issues is with telling others, and how they will respond. I live in a Christian household, I'm homeschooled, all the events and things I go to are faith based, you get the idea. And I love being Christian! I don't want to stop being Christian. But theres so many conflicting voices and opinions about homosexuallity in the church, and it feels like some kind of forbidden taboo topic that we can't talk about, at least, when it is talked about it is ridiculed or downplayed as some kind of 'ultimate sin', that will send you to *** no matter what. And its crazy to me how many Christians seem to think that, because the whole point of Jesus Christ dying was to save ALL of us, every single person!  The thing is, I don't want to go through this alone. Theres so much more I could put in this post, but I really want to talk about it with some adults in my life that I know I can trust with confidential information. I'm so terrified at the idea of telling other Christians how I feel, because of the behavior Christians generally have towards LGBTQ+ people. The ladies I know have been very understanding, and are always super supportive, and don't judge me, but I still feel like some sort of irredeemable monster that cant be loved because of some feelings I have that I cant control. I know I'm not the only one who's been in this kind of situation, but since homosexuality is so taboo for some reason, it often gets pushed under the rug, buried so the uncomfortable-ness goes away and we can pretend there's no problems at all!!!!!!!!!  I just really don't want to feel like Im hiding from everyone anymore. Of anyone has any advice, I would appreciate it! Thanks for reading my exposition, hehe! -Just a mii

Divide in the LGBTQ+ community over new gender identities?
by courageousKite3480
Last post
 December 24th, 2024
...See more I know there is a lot of divide within the community over many topics, because everyone is human and we all have our own perspectives.  Growing up in the community there was a lot of internal divide on the spectrum of gender that materialized in many ways.  I had a hard time finding the words to explain my experience to my son, especially in trying to communicate why a lot of the older LGBTQ+ community is having a hard time with the new generations gender identity movement.  Tell me how you feel you have seen or have experienced this divide?  Please be kind to each other, we all have our own experiences, let’s leave room for non judgment.

Expressing Pride Through Your Unique Talents
by proactiveTortoise8361
Last post
 September 2nd, 2024
...See more Hi Everyone! Pride Month may be behind us, but the spirit of Pride lives on every day through the talents and creativity of the LGBTQ+ community. This year, I found myself deeply inspired to explore what being LGBTQ+ means to me through my creative work. It’s been a journey of self-expression and connection, and I’d love to hear about your experiences too! For example, for myself, i use livestreaming to connect with others in my community in real-time. How do you celebrate Pride through your talents and expertise? Are you a musician creating beats that resonate with LGBTQ+ identities? Perhaps you’re a writer crafting stories that delve into queer experiences? Or maybe your creativity shines through in other ways like painting, dancing, or designing?
