How many of you identify as part of the LGBT community?

[adoringmydarling]

I'm a lesbian and I was wondering about other people here. I know my sexuality has played a role in suicidal thoughts

 

[RainAndSadness]

The vast majority of this forum does, myself included.

 

[Sleeper System]

I'm the gentleman sitting all the way in the back.



I'm like that kid who would cut class to go to other people's classrooms for no good reason just to hang out.

 

[Ambivalent1]

Not me

 

[sserafim]

I identify as aroace, idk if that counts or not

Not me

Are you a girl or a guy? I'm curious

 

[ReadyOrNot?]

I don't know, I'm a cis man who tried with a man one time. I didn't like it.

But deep inside me I'd like to wear beautiful woman clothes. Feeling pretty. Men's clothes are so fking boring. I want to wear colors and elegant curves. I only did that on some hippi-theme partys. You would never guess I have these thoughts if you see me irl.
So I don't know, probably doesn't count but I feel very comfortable around lgbt-people. There're much more accepting of people not fullfilling the gender roles.

Bi guy here.

 

[Sleeper System]

I once had to run to the store and couldn't find my damn sandles so I put on some women's flats and sped down the street. Somehow my run even turned kinda queer.
That has been my only experience. xD Unless you mean THIS LGBT? xD (kidding)

 

[my_name_is_mud]

I'm a gay/ace trans guy
Not the main reason why I want to CTB but makes me tired of life

I could not decipher what that means.
Life is exhausting af though.

ace = short for asexual
gay = short for homosexual
trans = short for transgender

sorry I'm just curious, how can you be both?

 

[dumbfukloser]

yuppp and I think it's definitely contributed to my own personal death wish. Not necessarily being gay but how you are perceived in society and among your peers

 

[Yaka]

Polyamorous and also Bisexual
both hated by many

 

[Sleeper System]

ace = short for asexual
gay = short for homosexual
trans = short for transgender

I still don't get it.
How can they be both?

I assume Ace is multi-gender.
Then to be gay means attracted to to the same sex.
But then trans man means... they went from being female attracted to female to being male attracted to male? or female? but Ace means u aren't sexually attracted in the first place so...? Yeah I know I'm not going crazy.

 

[MindFrog]

Lesbian but in the closet. I'll probably take that fact to my grave.

 

[DazaiKinnie]

I am a pan-romantic trans girl, but I am still in the closet.

 

[FutureHanger]

I'm technically bi but my attraction to men is so small (tho maybe that's because I haven't acknowledged it that much) that I don't feel comfortable calling myself LGBT even though I technically am it doesn't feel right but I wouldn't be mad if another bi person with preference for opposite gender identified heavily with being queer. I didn't embrace it till after I was already suicidal and it's made my ideation a lot stronger. Maybe my refusal to identify with LGBT is also due to fear as it'd make anti LGBT rhetoric hurt me a lot more.

It's a complexity on multiple levels. I get it's hard to understand or comprehend given you have a limited mindset. Nothing in life gives clear instructions or answers. People can be multiple things and nothing at all at the same time.

 

[BlessedBeTheFlame]

I'm bisexual and want to ctb because of it.

 

[4am]

i'm AAA, aro ace and agender

 

[narupajin1128]

I'd say I am and I am not. I don't really have a preference. I've had mainly heterosexual relationships but I've been with a few guys too.

 

[cold_severance]

im bi, so no, i dont identify with them and vice versa.

 

[Peerless_Cucumber]

Bisexual transsex man here

 

[vak]

Aroace but not identifying as LGBTQ(IA+), tired of being attacked and misinterpreted by exclusionists. Being an ally is enough for me

 

[CTB Dream]

Lesbia
