LGBTQA - Discussion and support.

[Leer]

wow i forgot i made this thread...

My situation is similar to yours. I myself have managed to come to conclusion that I'm Asexual (after years of wondering and some extensive research.) I haven't told my parents or anything like that; while they are quite supportive, they don't really 'get' things like that, and it doesn't really matter much anyway.

However, I haven't come to any solid answers regarding my gender identity. I mean, for most of my life, I thought I was a cisgender woman. But then, when I was about eighteen, so three years ago, I started thinking that maybe that wasn't right, it that makes sense. I did tell my mum that I thought I might be transgender (this was before I actually found out that gender isn't just 'male' and 'female') after she asked why I had booked a doctor's appointment without her and was trying to keep it quiet. She wasn't upset, but she thought I was wrong as well, which is fair enough; I don't even know if I'm right.

I still haven't reached a solid answer, but I realise I have my days where I feel more 'female' and days where I feel more 'male', if that makes any sense. So I keep thinking that maybe I just fit into the binary or something like that. I still don't really know if I'm honest.

Well there is a name for those who travel between both, so maybe you're that!

For me though, I always felt there was something off about me. I've never had a moment where I wanted to impress or be accepted by girls. I've mostly always wanted to be accepted by boys. I played football in 8th grade to say that I could, and to earn the acceptance of other guys. And I did it - I was a terrible player, but I did it.
I lot of times I think I'm supposed to be a guy. I don't like the concept of "girls be pretty and get whatever they want". It's so gross to me. Girls are supposed to be defended and cared for. Men are supposed to be strong. I want to be strong.

I think above all I'm sick of stereo-types, but it bothers me when my mom says things to me like "when are you going to dress more like a girl", "makeup would make you look pretty", "why don't you like dresses," etc. I simply "wish to not express myself" this way. I bought 2 pairs of men's jeans & I tell you, I will never buy another pair of women's jeans ever again. I like short hair, baggy T-shirts, flannels, and men's shoes. I'm quite determined to by a binder. I want to go out and be this new me, but I feel like my family would reject me or look down upon my decision.

I understand so of the "issues" with being a girl, and I don't feel there are many issue with being a guy. Anyone have any ideas of guy problems? Things like "You can't walk 8 blocks from your boyfriend's house because you're a girl" type things, but like guys problems instead.

Gotta say something about New Mexico.

I love how they did this. The county clerks just went "Hm...Yeah, let's do this."

I do not care what you do behind closed doors, but i am opposed to gay marriage.It says in the Bible ( Leviticus 18 ) Forbidden sexual practices, that these acts are a sin.Also gay marriage would infringe on religious liberties.

Make sure you're not coming in here to offend anyone.

It's one thing to give your opinion, but this sort of stuff is a questionable topic. If you're against anything it's probably best to just not post in this thread, as this a thread for supporting.

But isn't God accepting and loving of all? It's hypocrisy if he's selective about who is considered part of that "all".

I'm asexual and in a homo-romantic relationship. Also, both me and my girlfriend are trans-female.

You're just being provoking, posting that here. Honestly..

It's ridiculous how some people like you preach about the Bible, but at the same time go and offend people because of their sexual orientation. Something, they can't change. I'd like to see you be a part of a sexual minority. I bet you would then want to have the same rights as everyone else as well.

Seriously, you can discuss your thoughts with your other homophobe friends. Just leave people alone.

What's ridiculous is self-professed tolerant people being intolerant to other beliefs. Please respect other opinions.

 

[Vida]

I'm not being intolerant. He can have his opinion but does he really have to post it in this thread? And on top of this, make it sound so provoking? If he's against gay marriage and calls it a sin, is it really so important to stress this in a topic about supporting LBGTA? Seriously, I don't know why he's even bothered to come here and post this. I guess to make people upset.

 

[Prof Gallows]

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but this isn't a debate thread. This thread is for supporting, not for coming in and saying your opinion on why you disagree with any of it.

If you disagree, you're better off not posting in this thread at all. It's not going to cause any good whatsoever.

While I agree with Jeremy in that everyone should accept everyone, I don't agree that coming into a thread made for people looking for support and posting why you disagree, that's just rude.

I don't see any reason to tolerate beliefs that teach people that my existence is evil, when I am already part of the most discriminated against and murdered people in society (trans people)

Not really. Everybody probably just thinks your a major pervert peeping on girls while they do their thing.

Exactly, there is a difference between simply not liking something and just simply minding one's own business about it and letting people live their own lives, even if you don't agree and being happy, and spreading your hatred to influence other people into believing you by using your own beliefs (which you have by your own choice), that others may not share so that people, who don't decide their gender or who they love, who don't fit into one's ideal gender/sexual roles get ridiculed, hurt, discriminated against, and murdered, just because of someone else's hate and someone else interfering in their lives.

Also, not to mention, this is not a debate topic, it's a support/discussion topic, so that person posting about their dislike for those who don't fit their ideals about love, identity and orientation doesn't really have a place in doing so here.

I mean, as a vegetarian, that would be like me going to a huge community barbecue and shouting about how all meat eaters are murderers, meat is disgusting, and other such gross things, when it's not my place to do so.

Okay, maybe not the best analogy, but it's all about respecting who one is, who they love, how they identify, even if you're not a fan.
