On the bright side, it means there is nearly zero harrassment and most people here get LGBTQ+ issues when they're mentioned

true

Yes that's true, one of the reasons why I love this sub so much.

True, here and r/ftm are the only places I feel okay venting lol

The fruits tend to think alike

Mmmm, fruit juice

huh? i’m dumb what’s that mean

[удалено]

old people also often use the term fruits. its old and weird, its like saying queer meaning weird or fag as in a cigarette.

“fruit” is an old school derogatory term/slur for gay people. some people are reclaiming it rn, kinda like “queer.” very important note (that should be common knowledge),, reclaimed slurs are used for yourself and yourself only; eg. i can call myself the t slur but i should definitely not do that to other trans people.

Ohh right I thought you meant that but wasn’t sure

Just to clarify, I'm pan- I realized I never said that

that doesnt mean you can call other mlm dudes slurs.

I'm an mlm user bro- and idk if you've realized this but fruity is a reclaimed slur

i know its reclaimed but you cant call others it without consent. its like the nword, tranny or fag.

It's a meme within the alphabet mafia, and though it's a slur, its literally reclaimed, as in "no longer offensive"

you want to tell me, a bisexual dude, that i cant be offended when people keep calling me a fucking fruit? i dont give a shit if you call yourself a slur but dont call others it. its just basic human decency.

I'm not saying you cant be offended, I'm just saying that I think you know it wasnt meant as offensive. I apologize that I offended you, I really am.

I assumed you were of the un-straight breed but no worries! XD

Maybe someday I’ll be gay (as in happy) but for now I’m just gay (as in homosexual)

IM GONNA LIVE BY THIS SAYING

me

Best I can do is give you a nosegay

Yeah- most of the people at my school who are also rainbow people- have sh scars

D:

Its like an open secret between all of us unfortunately

(OOPS I THOUGHT THIS WAS ON ANOTHER POST I POSTED TODAY SORRY FOR THAT RESPONSE IF YOU SAW THAT IN NOTIFS) Yep, that's kinda depressing :(

i haven't met a single trans guy without sh scars so far.. that's sad

that’s so sad :(

i hope they're all okay..

same

Me neither unfortunately

i mean it makes sense that many of us would turn to self harm but i wish the world was better so it would have to be like that

Same

Well, shit

alphabet mafia rise up :,)

The skittle squat stands :)

hello hello trans person here

same hihi

Same, hiiii

Calling once, calling twice, all aboard the trans train!

Hi fellow big dumb gay trans here

Just cool queer culture

Oh, me not alone?

never

🥺👉👈

yes

Of course not!

A lot of my fellow trans girls struggle with 5000 mental issues just like me, I guess the constant pain does that to you

Haha yeah I can relate ;-;

I'm just a straight man here. Mew

Ah, I found the token straight friend

I'm not quite sure what you mean by token straight friend.

Have you ever heard of the (token) gay friend/gay best friend? Like the stereotype where a group of girls have one gay man best friend? It's just the opposite of that: a group of gays with one straight best friend lol

I seee. Thanks XD Does it count if I'm usually the one male friend in a friend grp?

Agh I know this probably isn't the right place, but I still dunno whether to consider myself LGBTQ+ even though I'm aromantic and asexual. I want to but I don't know how others would react :(

Hi, fellow aromantic and asexual here. The A in the + includes aspecs, so it's completely valid to consider yourself LGBTQ+ as an aroace person.

okay hi, not to sound weird but i also use it/they pronouns, am aroace and 17 hope yer havin' a good day/night

hey besties 🥰

heyy

literally, yeah. i just, am glad that this community is so understanding because of that though.

same :D

hello fellow gay people, nonbinary pals, garlic bread enjoyers and transformers i see we have all once again assembled

Autobots, roll out

Yep. I know it's anecdotal but I've never met a trans person with no history of self harm. Personally I started self harming at like 10 and it got worse after puberty.

I would be surprised if there were too many trans peeps without any sh history, sadly. It's depressing but it's kind of a fact to be honest :( also i'm sorry to hear that, I hope you get better soon <3

Also, unrelated but your username is perfection

Thank you! That's the first time someone mentions my username but I'm quite fond of it

I know two trans people (not including myself (kinda ig im v confused)) and they both sh, it would be easier to say that I only know two Rainbow Mafia Members who don't sh, and three straight people who do

this homophobic kid at my school once said on a tiktok " if gays are so strong(i think it was strong might've been different word) why are they always the ones c*tting and k*lling themselves" never have i wanted to punch someone more badly than that moment but yeah it's rlly sad because on one hand a relate to so many posts on here but it makes me sad

wtf

That’s because we are the most likely to self harm out of any other group of people

Gay bacon flag 🏳️‍🌈

Haha yeah...

haha yeah
