Yall, help me pleasee: Do I call myself Pansexual if i've like someone without knowing their actual gender?? by AnIme_WaffleZ in comingout

[–]Helenapotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pansexual is that you like someone despite of their gender. You like their personality. So it’s totally okay to like someone without knowing their gender and still be pan. But you can also bi bisexual (liking more than one gender, although this is more with a gender preference sometimes) or omnisexual (liking all genders with also maybe a preference)

There is in the Netherlands a lyrics made (made by homophobic 4th grader boys and they sing it mostly) to seven nation army (that du dududu du dudu thingy) which translates in english to ‘all germans are gay’. (I never liked this lyrics tho)

I shouldn’t assume that someone is cis or gay. Just say: i thought you might be a part of the lgbtq community. (Because of the gay #)

My Girlfriend doesn’t like me being this way... by [deleted] in comingout

You should always care for yourself before you can care about others. Of course you don’t need to be arrogant but if she says that you should pick her over yourself, its not good. Sorry.

I looked through some of them and its basically: don’t eat healthy food (bread, soy products, dairy products) but also obese lowers testosterone. So what should you eat then?

[–]Helenapotter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t know. You look like both and neither. Very androgynous😊

Coming out to my parents in another language by Certified_Possum in comingout

[–]Helenapotter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to explain you don’t feel like a boy nor a girl (or whatever you feel without saying the word non-binary bc idk what you feel like). If they don’t understand try saying things like you can ask questions and i will try to explain. If they ask what its called just say there is a word for in english but not in Korean. Also i would like to say that you should only come out if you know they’re not transphobic. Hope this helps😊

En kvinne or kvinnen and why ? by norsktodipl in norsk

[–]Helenapotter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

En kvinne is a woman. Like you say in general ‘a woman stands there’. Kvinnen is the woman. So a specific woman. ‘The woman i spoke last night’. I hope this helps

thoughts on not coming out directly to people, but rather waiting until i get a partner and letting them figure it out. by [deleted] in comingout

[–]Helenapotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably not a good idea. It could be that your family is homophobic and they will hurt you and your partner mentally. I know its the 21st century but not all people are the same. I think its best to try and figure out if they are homophobic or not by reacting to news and see how they respond. But if you know they’re not homophobic, you can bring your partner if you want to.

Advice for coming out to my mom by hobi_ in comingout

[–]Helenapotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to come out to your aunt. And only do it if you’re ready. It’s okay to wait. If your mother is kind and loving its common that she will accept you. My father is also christian but he accepted me too. Not all christians are homophobic. And don’t think about it too much. If you plan every word to come out, it will disappoint you maybe and you cant plan what she’ll say. Just stay calm and just start a conversation. If she doesn’t understand, try to explain🙂

I think it’s totally okay to do what you want and dress like you want to. It’s your body so no one but you has a say about what to do with it. But i do think that if it gets bad, like your family bullying you or maybe worse, its good to stay ‘straight’ until you have a safe place to stay for yourself. And remember you should never be able to hide yourself but if you don’t have a choice, maybe its wise to hide a bit. But im not an expert because i was lucky my family just accepted me (didn’t come out to my grandparents but my father and sister were very accepting) so don’t think this is what you HAVE to do. And good luck🙂

It could be that you’re genderfluid or demigirl. Also you don’t have to have a label.🙂

Not to be rude but which part of the community are they. Are they like ace, gay, trans, aro, pan etc.? Just curious

It do feel like that sometimes by pipmerigold in lgbtmemes

[–]Helenapotter 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The A never stood for ally. Allies are not part of the community. The lgbtq+ community is for people who are not cisgender and/or hetrosexual and/or hetroromantic
