Being Gay

Well, I'm a bisexual girl, and I like it both because of the stories and because I can identify with the characters. I've liked BL (and GL) for about 6 years now, and when I first had contact with it, I liked it mostly because of the romance aspect - I'm a pretty romantic person, lol. The BLs I started with had a similar effect on me as shoujo mang......   2 reply

I like it because it’s gay, simple as that.   reply

First time (coming out as 'gay', 16, now I know I'm gay for all genders): Friend-wise, said that guys kissing is hotter than straight people kissing. Family-wise, emailed my parents and let them tell extended family. Second time (coming out as asexual, ~18): friend-wise just mentioned it many times. Family-wise, my brother told my dad and I said '......   reply

Amab bigender+agender, gay for all genders, autochorissexual. Personally I love bl + gl, though I'm picky about bl because most of it is terrible. Even though I love bl, I think it's pretty harmful because of its fanbase. It misrepresents the queer community and normalizes noncon, and this makes the straight women who read it think that that's ho......   2 reply

Well.. you kind of sound like you were interrogating them as if they were some out of world creature, which, isn't.. respectful. But basically you just want to know how lesbians have sex in general? Most of the times it's through oral sex, some fingering and if you want, toys. Most girls don't use it though. It's like when straight people have se......   2 reply

i realized i was bi in 8th grade. i remember my best friend leaning her head on my shoulder during lunch one day, and then something in me just kind of clicked. it was really hard for me. looking back on it now, i think i liked girls before then, but i was just repressing it. internalized homophobia really screws you up. in any case, like i said, f......   2 reply

bi girl here. i've been out since 8th grade, when i came out to my mom. that's when i figured out i liked girls, but i'm pretty sure i'd been suppressing it for longer than that. i couldn't say it out loud bc i was crying so hard so i wrote it on a post it note. i don't remember how i came out to my dad but it was pretty soon after. they were both ......   reply

okay, you sound young, so i'm not going to fault you for it. but it's really invasive of you to ask your friends questions about their sex lives completely unwarranted. would you do the same for a straight person? yaoi and yuri are extremely unrealistic, and you shouldn't turn to it for a depiction of the sex life of lgbt individuals. yaoi/yuri is ......   reply

I found out I was bi back when I fell in love with my first boyfriend I guess? I have been a lesbian for as long as I remember, but I kept on falling for straight girls, so things never worked out. Then BAM! Met a guy and fell head over heels for him... Took me a really small amount of time to accept it tbh, I was flabbergasted at it at first, but......   1 reply

Mine was pretty bothersome tbh (for the record, I'm MtF trans, but I wasn't aware of it back then), me and my boyfriend broke up back when I was 20, and I was so emotionally devastated that I could only stay home crying every day and could no longer leave my house to go to university. After staying some 2 months like that I lost the uni semester a......   reply
