Hey Pandas, What’s Your Experience With Lgbtq+/Coming Out?
hi! having a reprise of my queer crisis at the moment so thought i should ask what everyone's experience with the community was--and maybe to share stories of coming out, to support other LGBTQ+ pandas or allies in knowing we are not alone. Stay safe and have a lovely day!

My niece (female) now lives his life as a man. I love the person no matter what. Don’t expect everyone to conform to your expectations.
Good for you, using the "his" pronoun. Given the stance you have held for years, from your newly created accounts, day in day out, I would expect you to deny the identity of a transgender person in your family, like you have done to do many people on this site.
Bella, he's a sycophant who will say the most middle-of-the-road, milquetoast thing he can think of to trigger the agreement response in NPCs such as himself

I walked up to my mom recently and said, and I quote, "you know, I think I might like men and women" she responded with "that's fine"
another incident was when I told my very Christian grandmother that some random dude on the streets asked for my pronouns. she asked what I explained to the man, and I struggled for ten minutes to tell her that my pronouns are they/them...
This is kind of related I think. I hope you accept my story.
In my twenties I worked at a depot full of tradesmen. There were very few tradesmen at the time. The place was definitely a sea of masculinity. But because I did not engage in, "locker room" talk about women, did not brag about my sexual exploits, did not really talk that much about any girlfriends, it was assumed I was gay. On more than one occasion people would take me to one side and ask if I was homosexual. So, I had to come out the closet as straight!
Because my siblings and I didn't really date when we were in high school, my mum also thought we were gay and had a whole spiel about it being okay if we were etc. She was wrong on all fronts!
