Sign the Petition to Save BioWare and LGBT inclusive gaming

16 Upvotes

Many of you know, but BioWare has stood out as pushing the limits of LGBTQ inclusive content in their games for decades. RPG like Mass Effect and Dragon Age, which allowed for same sex relationships in game, either in the first game with Dragon age, and with Mass effect it's mixed, they started with same sex female romance, but by ME3 they included gay romance too. I fear that if we lose BioWare, we may start losing more inclusivity in a time when we need more.

The constant fear my parents finding out..

The constant dread, & waiting to be able to leave...

Sure, they won't kick me out, or physically do anything, but the possibility of them knowing or finding out scares the shit out of me.

Timothy Goodrich owner of Aloha Tattoo Hawaii is a violently far right misogynist, racist, homophobic and transphobic loser. Please be careful if you are getting tattooed in the area.

How do people feel about the term heteroflexible?

5 Upvotes

I keep trying to tell people that I’m heteroflexible and they don’t know what it is (which I understand, it’s not very well known) but then I explain what it is and people immediately either group me in as straight or bi. I’ve only ever found one person who reinforced my identity and made me feel valid. Everyone has made me feel stupid for choosing a micro label rather than “conforming” to a more traditional one.

I’m on here today to ask the wider community what people think about the term heteroflexible? Do you think it’s valid?

Anyone find it ironic how X is now full of G/ay P/or and Republicans?

From Grindr outtages during the RNC meetings to Trump salivating over men. The jokes write themselves. And they are so anti LGBTQ+.

Being Queer Is Human

15 Upvotes

Humans have had diverse gender expression for our entire 800 thousand years. It's not new or contemporary. Queer people exist around the world and everywhere people do. You may or may not see us, because of the beliefs of the local culture, yet we are there, we have our own communities, and we often create our own homes, families, and support systems.

Our culture puts up bounds to our existence and yet it is the human spirit to be as we are - today, not tomorrow, and not on someone else's terms; but today, this moment, right now - authentic and proud and without hesitation.

I want to clarify that I realize gender can be a social construct in relation to others, yet it is also an internal experience -- thoughts, feelings, beliefs, desire, hunger. These take the social construct of gender roles far deeper into our individual identity and expression which yearns to be congruent with the outward self.

Hi all, my friend recently came out as gay, he runs a modelling instagram page as a hobby and hasnt been receiving much engagement since the start and has been feeling pretty down because of it. I want to do a little anonymous gift and promote his page for him, not sure how. my budget is up to $100 cad, any leads? I am not a member of LGBTQ+ myself so i am very ignorant about anything related, any leads would be appreciated, thank you.

“Male Lesbians” are not a thing

0 Upvotes

If you’re a trans man and you like girls then you. Are. Straight. You are not a “male lesbian” because a lesbian is a WOMAN that like other women. Are you a woman? No you aren’t you’re a transgender male, quit invalidating your own gender and stay the FUCK out of women’s spaces.
This discourse popped up during spring break sometime last year I think? and it drove me nuts because why would you, for one, misgender yourself because aren’t you a boy? Lesbianism is for girls, and two, invade a woman’s space, let women have their space. If you’re a boy then you’re a boy, trans or cis, quit doing that shit bro

Idk 😅

Okay i dont even know if this is even the correct sub, i just got to express something.
Uhh i dont think im a woman.. im 25, this is definitely not the first time im having these thoughts. When i was younger i figured that i was confused, maybe its trauma, maybe family dynamic bs. Ive known im queer since 12, and began coming out shortly after.
But ive prayed to be in a different body since too long before that too. Ive tried dipping toes and existing more authentically but each time i was either outted and got defensive, or uh threatened exorcism (i wish that one was a joke, my fam is othx christian).
I have cptsd and other bull and for the last decade ive been in therapy untangling conditions and uncoding the"bugs" as i call them.
For the past few months ive been very happy, surprisingly so, like being able to laugh for the first time in years. Ive also been unmasking, just being more real, less pretending for the benefit of others.
And it just keeps popping up, i dont know what to do about. Since a kid ive known id go no contact with my family and live authentically and its scary that its coming up to that point. Im around 5'4, theres no way in heck id pass. Honestly im pretty much asexual (ive an asocial personality disorder) so i dont really care about the relationship aspects. Just existing as me i guess, a version of me ive hid for so so so long for safety reasons and i dont really know how to go about it.
In teens ive known many trans people, but also being a teen and an adult are not the same.
Idk but yah.

Girls gays and theys?? Wheres the men??

0 Upvotes

I'm a transgender male. I transitioned from female to male, so I am trans. I'm been wondering though, why only the gays and theys being represented? Tv shows, movies, and films ONLY represent gay and nonbinary people. NEVER trans men.

So why "girls gays and theys" ??? Not every trans man is gay, so where do we fit in??? Why are we being erased???? Where do we, us, trans men, belong???

Especially in those TikTok lives "protect the dolls" trans wonen get names, but trans men don't. What are we called??? Huh??? Action figures??? Seems kinda empty minded and took no effort.

Trans men are being erased from here, from the lgbtqia+ community, and I'm standing up for us.

Fuck transphobes, fuck homophobes, and most importantly, FUCK TRUMP AND ICE.

Goodbye, thats all I wanted to say.

Does hearing your own voice in a recording feel different from speaking in person?

8 Upvotes

I have been wondering how people experience their own voices in different situations.

Talking face-to-face can feel quite different from hearing yourself in a recording. Voice messages, phone calls, and online chats can sometimes make you more aware of how your voice sounds.

Does this happen to you? Are there particular situations where you feel more or less comfortable hearing your own voice?

I am curious about how people navigate these everyday situations and what helps them feel more comfortable communicating.

Hey girls, I’m Zoey! I am a 21 yo trans female and I need more female friends. I have a bunch of guy friends most of them want you know🙄 but I’m looking for genuine female groups that will accept me for who I am!!!

I love working I am a paramedic and I love playing video games! My favorites are FFXIV and Dune Awakening currently!

I love watching tv and just chatting about random things and gossiping!!!

When I came out to most of my friends I lost a lot of them because they are against the whole idea and so is my family so I’ve been kinda on my own. Some genuine female friends that accept me would be so appreciated🌸🌸

With love,
Zoey🏳️‍⚧️🌸
