There are some general perceptions of what's wrong and offensive when it comes to LGTBQ+. What are some things you hear or read about LGBTQ+ that are offensive to you and not talked about enough or that people might not realize are offensive?

Well, there’s the F-slur (f-a-g-g-o-t), which you should never say. Other than that, I suppose just don’t stereotype. I personally don’t find most jokes offensive, as long as it’s clearly a joke and the person is not specifically (like on a talk show, if they don’t make any other jokes) picking on the LGBTQ+ community. Just be careful when making jokes.

Okay! Lgbt is an acronym, most of the time also including q and +. L stands for lesbian, g stands for gay, b stands for bisexual, t means transgender. The q can mean queer but most of the time is perceived as questioning, and plus is for more sexualities that aren't as common as LGBT. Does that answer your question?

it means l mean lesbian, g means gay, b means bisexual, and t means transgender.

The L stands for Lesbian (a woman who is attracted to other women, but not any other genders), the G stands for Gay, this can be used to describe a man attracted to other men but no other genders, or lesbians, the B stands for Bisexual, someone who is attracted to all genders, however, they do usually have a preference, and the T stands for Transgender, someone who isn’t the gender they were assigned at birth, and the Q stands for both Questioning and Queer, queer is just a way to sum up all the sexualities, I guess.

Making new friends because you realize you'll have to come out to them at some point and they may not accept you and you might lose them

I mostly wonder if it is unacceptable or wrong to discuss gender with a transgender person. Do I act like they were never the other gender (sorry if i'm being offensive)? I just don't want to offend anyone.

I’m transgender, and I guess people are different, but I prefer it if people treat me like I was never another gender, because I wasn’t really. (I’m FTM, so I’d prefer it if you treated me like I’m cisgender and wasn’t assigned female at birth)

What does it mean to be biromantic? I think I might be but I'm not entirely sure what it means yet.

It's like being bisexual but instead of sexual attraction to two or more genders its romantic attraction to two or more genders. Most bisexuals are also biromantic.

How do you know if you're lgbtq+? How many people think they're straight but then just kinda like realize "no, ig I'm not" one day? Would you be considered Asexual if you aren't interested in sex due to sexual trauma, or would it just be considered you don't want it because of the trauma?

For the 2nd question asexual isn't exactly not being interested in sex (some enjoy it) they don't just look at someone and have the urge to have sex(i guess) but yes you can become asexual because of drama and thats valid

There’s a also Demiboy and Demigirl - they’re quite hard to explain, so sorry if I get it wrong. It’s almost like you’re 50% non-binary and 50% a boy or girl. Again, sorry if this was wrong!

I know this is not question, but does anyone think that it's messed up that you automatically assume that someone is straight?

I do. I love the people who are super chill with you coming out because they just assume everyone is bisexual. The people who think you're straight then are super weirded out or non-supportive when you come out are the worst.

Why do people seem to dislike people that are lgbt+? I get that they don't like them because they are different so they can't become friends with me. But, WHY though???
