Description WARNING: VERY large image, may take time to load in full detail

Hewow everyone! I am very excited to present you with this piece I have worked on, day after day, for the past month. I planned out this piece, and it look lots of time. But im so glad that its done and over, at least as far as I know.

This piece was inspired by 2019s 30 Days of Pride Art competition last year. The winner's piece(of which I can't find now) was absolutely stunning. Now, this year, i wished to create the best piece i could, to both show my pride, and support for the LGBTQA+ community.

Let me tell you about the cast of characters!

Awesome Fox: cis male, hetero Red Fox, a Straight Ally

Mason: cis male, homosexual otter

Iksar: cis female, Bisexual hybrid(Lynx, Saber, Snow leopard)

Ramsey(CONSENTUAL INCLUSION FROM  www.deviantart.com/ramseydoodl…): Pansexual, hybrid(Fennec Fox, Red Panda)

Xavier: Transgender male, Spotted Hyena

Izzy: Asexual, Manokit(NOT MY SPECIES)

Taylor: cis female, Lesbian, White Wolf

Riley: Gender Fluid, American Bobtail Cat

Jamie: Non-Binary, Angel Dragon(NOT A DUTCHY)

DO NOT USE ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS WITHOUT My OR RAMSEY'S PERMISSION! 


So, why do i want to support this community? Personally, I love and am part of this community, as I both Identify as Bisexual, and Genderfluid(I will accept any pronouns).  Its so diverse, and changes and grows each and every year.

But both inside, and outside this community, there are indications, disagreements, and unfortunately, much discrimination, BOTH inside AND outside! Ill start with those outside the community.

From the outside, the LGBTQA+ community has been widely misunderstood, for centuries. Things from religion, to perceived scientific studies, to simple misunderstands and miss-teachings have led the idea of being gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or any other of the community to be 'taboo'. This is very unfortunate, and while much progress in the form of equality has been gained over the past 50 years, such as front the violent protests at Stone Wall, there is still such a long way to go, to eradicate the miseducation, the illusions, the discrimination and criminalization, and the violence, against the LGBTQA+ community. 

However(if anyone wishes to challenge me here, please do, I would like to learn more).

Even inside this community, where all is supposed to be accepting, and everyone is loved and is supported and accepted, even here, there is injustice. There is indecision on what is, and is not 'gay'. There is fighting about what should be shown on the universal flag of pride. There is turmoil about complete acceptance, and misconceptions even in differing sexuality and gender spectrums. 

For example, Bisexuals, such as myself, are often seen as not 'gay enough'. We are often depicted at non-authentic partners, who will leave their partner for another. They are often seen as 'not gay' enough if we choose to be in a heterosexual relationship. This is discrimination. This is a misunderstanding. And this is wrong. Period. 

Another, even worse off example, come from a story i recently heard.

If, reader, you are not familiar with Roly, on YouTube(Here is the link to the story,  www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBtkaP…), then they are a genderfluid(or here, refers to themselves as Non-Binary), homosexual person, who has a pretty well-known channel and talking about all things LGBTQA+. However, when they came out as Non-Binary, they were, unfortunately, and to my surprise, meet with resistance, and even hate, because they are more 'male' presenting. THIS community, those people, and DARED to tell them who THEY were, labeling them as what THEY saw, not what that person did, in their own mind. They did not accept them, and because of that, they simply pulled out, and while they still identify(I presume), they no longer speak about it. 

This....breaks my heart. We as a community should know, hell, we KNOW what it is like to be told off, to be told who you are, or what its like being forced to hide from the backlash. Even I do. But we cannot let this stand, for if we do, we are not better then those who trample this community outside of it. We are not better than the homophobic out there, because some of us simply cant...accept. 

So what do we need to be, how can we fix this? The image above

We need to stand, united, under one flag, and also under our own distinctive flags. We need not stand in the dark, but stand in the bright circle, that is friendship, that is companionship, that is LOVE. We are the colors of the world, a world in color, and we need to stay by what we KNOW is RIGHT. 

So stay compassionate for your fellow person(or whoever you may be), because in the end, we all need it, and it's all that we have. Each other.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you spread this world of color, and be the Color of Love. ^w^

And here is a link to a wonderful artist, who is showing their support for the LGBTQ+ community! Show them some love! :3
