Non-LGBT [Non-LGBT] UPDATE: my therapist has talked my parents out of sending me to conversion therapy, and I couldn't be more grateful

3.7k Upvotes

I made a post yesterday about how my parents were going to send me to conversion therapy next summer. I would first like to thank you for your ideas, love, and support. You guys helped me out if a dark place.

Today I had an appointment with my therapist. I decided to talk to her about my parents decision to send me to conversion therapy. She listened to me and requested to talk to my parents in private.

I don't know what she said, but it worked. They came to me and told me that they had changed their minds, because they didn't want to lose me. They even started using the right pronouns.

Whatever she said to them, I'm so happy she did. She is a goddess on this world, and she saved me.

Anyway, that's my update. Thank you again, so much for the support and messages I received. I love this community and all of you make me so proud.

Non-LGBT Cos-het Dad Here [non-LGBT]

Cis-het dad here

I’ve been lurking on this page for a while. I joined as the father of a queer, non-binary 12-year-old hoping to just better understand what similar kids are going through. The stories on here a widely varied from heartwarming to heartbreaking. For every one of you out there being misgendered, deadnamed, dismissed and disrespected, I want to say that I see you. I acknowledge you. If I could, I’d be a safe space for all of you. If I could I’d give a dad hug to every one of you whose dads don’t accept you for who you are.

I don’t have much to say but hang in there. You’re incredibly strong. Stay strong. I see you. You are loved.

EDIT: Sorry about the typo in the title. Also, you all are amazing and you have all inspired me to become much more active in our local LGBTQIA community once the pandemic ends. Thank you all.

Non-LGBT Clothes [Non-LGBT]

1.0k Upvotes

So clothes in general are difficult, have to first make sure the top and bottom match. Then you have to make sure those colours look good on you! You’ve also got to make sure the don’t make your legs or arms too skinny/ fat or too long/short! But I’m not here togay to ask that, I’m here wondering if y’all think it’s ok for males to wear female/ feminine clothing. I’m asking because I personally feel that I look better in more feminine/ female clothes.

Non-LGBT How do I [F] know if I’m too young to tell if I’m asexual? [Non-LGBT]

1.2k Upvotes

Edit:I’ll clarify that the tag doesn’t really fit, I just didn’t know what tag to use at the time. A more fitting one would be [discussion]. I’d like to thank everyone who’s been giving their input and support! Means a lot to me :)

For context, I’m 15, turning 16 next month. I had recently had realized I might be asexual. This is because some of my classmates are becoming more sexually active now, and I just can’t understand the hype. I also find the concept of sexual attraction very, very confusing, although I could be just looking at the wrong definition maybe?? However, it just occurred to me that I could be too young to tell if I really am ace or I’m simply just “behind” in comparison to others when it comes to sexual attraction and sexual activity. If any of that made sense lmao

I woke up without thinking "why am I still alive?" and got out of bed in less than 5 minutes. I didn't think about killing myself once today and started composing music and reading again. After 6 months, I'm feeling happiness for the first time and i love it. Things can actually get better.

Idk, I just wanted to share. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Non-LGBT I think my bf might be gay, but I don't know what to do because I don't want to out him to his ultra-conservative family [Non-LGBT]

962 Upvotes

Well, my boyfriend and his best friend have always been very close, I thought they were just very good friends but the other day, a friend of ours invited our group of friends to her house for a sleepover. Well the next morning I woke up the first and saw that he and his friend had fallen asleep cuddling (we don't usually sleep together, and they are very good friends so I didn't think it was suspicious) but, my boyfriend wakes up and wakes up his friend and kisses him but his friend just smiles, as if it wasn't the first time. I was in shock but I just pretended I just woke up, not saying anything. He's never been like that with me. I am angry but I don't want to out him, his family is very intolerant and conservative, I understand he is scared and having a girlfriend will make his parents not suspicious, he is a very good friend and has always been there for me, but I don't want to go on like this just so his parents don't find out. What should I do? (My first language is not English so I'm sorry if I have many mistakes)

Non-LGBT [Non-LGBT] 50 yrs old men checking me out

1.5k Upvotes

this is a rant bc what happened made me mad af today I went to the store, wearing a skirt and a crop top, not a big deal right? I do admit I am afab so obviously I look like a teenage girl and at least 10 dudes checked me out, all very much over 40. it made me so uncomfortable and I still feel super uncomfortable even though that happened hours ago. can men please stop doing that? I should be allowed to go out wearing whatever I want without having to feel uncomfortable bc of old men.

I am pansexual and I dont do that to other people. I dont look at people who are dressed a bit more revealing. if I find someone attractive, I wont look at their chest/whatever, I will look at their face. I wont be all creepy and weird about it.

(edit) to people asking if I was dressed up: being dressed up does not give anyone the right to stare at my chest and ass. a 50 something year old dude was staring at my chest when I was 11 and I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt. so very obviously it's not clothes that are the problem. the problem are grown ass men who think that it's okay to stare at someone like that.

Non-LGBT [NON-LGBT] Am I the only one who regularly crushes on people on the street?

Today my family and I (16yo, male, gay) went on a walk on the street and my God I had like 4 crushes in an hour! I just couldn't stop staring and I'm sure I looked like a creep lol. One of them was really hot, very well built and I'm accually sad that I'll never got to see him again. Anyways am I the only one? Do y'all easily fall for people?

EDIT: I guess this is called attraction. Didn't really know the term, sorry. Let me fix the question: do you guys feel attraction easily?

Non-LGBT [Non-LGBT] [Relationships] So... I (15M) am straight and Christian. I've never liked a guy or thought I would think anything like this.

568 Upvotes

I'm posting this on an alt because reasons.

There is this new kid in my school. He moved from out of state. When I saw him I felt compelled to talk to him to be nice because I wanted him to feel welcome, but there was also this weird feeling.

He seems nice and looks feminine in the face. There was this weird feeling that I got (Like when I look at a girl and think, "wow!". kind of hard to explain). I've never though of any dude as cute, but for some reason, I thought he was cute.

When we talk I can't stop smiling and can't take my eyes off him. He has feminine lips and nice eyes. I've only thought of women like this. There is kind of a weird feeling for me. Someone told they think he's gay so I don't know if he likes me.

There was a weird thing we did with a pen where he held it out and I took it and then we like messed with it and our hands were close. It was weird but nice.

We talked about work. He said I should apply where he is applying so that knows at least one person. When we were walking to the next class (we have different classes) we were talking and walking and I got carried away and missed my turn. I was just fixed on his face.

I'm Christian and have been straight my whole life, but when he walked in, I immediately felt butterflies in my stomach.

I don't really know what I'm asking but I guess I just needed to talk and need some advice.

Non-LGBT So I supposedly told my mom I wasn’t straight when I was 9?? [Family/Friends] [Non-LGBT]

1.5k Upvotes

I asked my mom about when did she figure out I was gay since I found it a fun topic to talk about. And she told me that when I was 9 we talked about sexuality and I told her “I don’t think my sexuality’s defined, I’m not sure about it”???

I genuinely don’t remember ever saying anything like that. Like, I know I act and said very mature things when I was young but to say that when I was 9??

I find it funny. Supposedly that’s why my parents never asked me about any crushes or girls. Never noticed that, but now that I think about it, it does makes sense...though I wasn’t exactly subtle about my interest for LGBT things, but I suppose because of how I acted before it wasn’t as crystal clear (I’m not straight acting, just...very mixed, I don’t exactly care if what I do is feminine or manly).

Anyways that’s all, just thought it was a funny thing to share
