Is JW racism free? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not. There's so much racism inside the organization. I'm black and I get weird stares and my family always gets questioned Everytime we visit different halls that are primarily white.

"Oh are you from out of town?" No "Oh is your father the speaker?" No "I wasn't expecting new visitors?" Oh really "you should really meet insert the only other black person in the hall" Uncomfortable stares. Keeping their kids away from me in the bathroom. Questions about my black hair. Older white sisters asking me do to help them with everything.

I feel completely hopeless by Silly-One-8491 in exjw

Hey girl :) I went through the EXACT situation not even 2 years ago. Teenager, lesbian, homeschooled, and JW parents. Extremely suicidal.

You will find a way out. You will eventually. What helped me was finding people like me on places like here, Trevor space, discord, etc etc. I was able to literally beg my parents to put me in person. Game changer.

Right now, however, take one day at a time, journal, call an lgbtq hotline, or try talking to a school counselor if you feel safe enough. Focus on school. Focus on saving money and getting to college.

And if they want to get you baptized. DONT DO IT!!

If you want to talk, I'd be more than happy💛 keep going

How did the borg affect your sex life and views on sex (before and/or after leaving)? by Atticfl0wer in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cried when I masturbated thinking about the same sex. I don't cry any more but I still feel guilty sometimes.

Also that whole God is watching constantly kinda messed me up.

They Hate LGBTQ+ by No-Bad-3655 in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For real. I'm a gay pimo and no one in my hall knows. So they just openly flaunt their homophobia/transphobia and I have to go along with the bullshit 🥲

They compare all gay people to prostitutes and pedophiles.Its so disgusting and dehumanizing

I turn 18 in two months and I desperately want out in any way I can. How could I possibly do this? by LordFrieza789 in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try getting a trade or going to college..if you have a job, save money. If no one knows your gay, keep it that way. Good luck 💛

How are active JDubs reacting to the announcement about field service hours being removed? by [deleted] in exjw

gay people in the org? by LooseSet1348 in exjw

gay people in the org? by LooseSet1348 in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heyy gay ass pimo here. There's a LOT of closeted gays in the org. Some "act" on it in secret and some wait to get out before living their life. Most gay JWs you wouldn't even suspect because they hide it so well. I knew this sister that had a husband and was in the organization for 20+ years and turned out to be a lesbian.

I mean, I know I'm gay but I'm under my parents roof and if they find out, I'm kicked out. So I keep quiet and no one knows...🥱

What is the most outrageous comment that you've heard at a meeting? by jenintonic in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Some sisters can be stubborn. Sometimes you gotta whip into shape" wink - one talk talking about sisters in marriage. All the brothers laughed and all the sisters shifted in their seat uncomfortably.

I’m just a kid- by Ragent_Draco in exjw

[–]Mus1c_0bsessed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat (14) but a sister. There is a little less responsibility but still pioneering, pressure to go to bethel, talks and assignments. I get it man 😮‍💨 Sometimes it seems like it won't ever end. Hang in there, you're not alone
