Description I feel like the LGBTQI community is so often demonized/ostracized from society because being, well, not-straight is wrongly perceived as "deviant." In truth, gay is gorgeous. Lesbian is gorgeous. Bisexual is gorgeous. Transsexual is gorgeous. Inter-sex is gorgeous. Questioning is gorgeous.

I won't excuse any hateful comments originating from a safety in the Internet's anonymity.

(About the art: I drew this in Wakkawa's style! Because he is GOD)

Thank you!
"LGBTQI" stands for "lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/transsexual, questioning, and intersex."

Looooove the feet, shading and anatomy looks great.
Though the legs looks a little awkward. Like ... like the foot on our right looks almost like her right foot, when I look at the picture as a whole ^^"

Lol yeah. I'm not good at feet. I'm kind of lazy though so I probably won't change it, but I'll definitely keep it in mind for future reference Thanks!

What's even harder is that WITHIN the LGBTQI community there's hatred and discrimination. So many members of one sub sect of the LGBTQI openly discriminate against other sub sects. I've had experiences with gay men who hate lesbian women, lesbians who hate bisexuals, bisexuals who scoff at transgendered persons..... You'd think that people who experience so much discrimination themselves would be more understanding of those who are also considered "different." But you'd be amazed how many aren't.

I'm not totally submerged in the community, but I've definitely heard of this, and it's really unfortunate, I think Oppressors always divide and conquer - we ought not to make it more easy for them.

CheriAnnCSW In reply to Galbinus [2010-06-05 13:51:41 +0000 UTC]

I agree. I'm a firm believer in the whole "live and let live," thing. What someone else needs to get by isn't going to be the same thing as me. If two men are in love and having sex, even if religious fanatics are right and it's considered a sin (which I don't believe, but that's not the point), then let them do it. They'll face the consequences of their actions just like everyone else.

*I'm not saying that I believe being gay is a choice or that it's wrong, I'm just saying if someone were actually to believe that, they should ignore it and let "god" or whoever handle it.

As long as you're not hurting anyone, your choices are of little consequence to me, and I don't see a need to tell you to behave any differently.

Agreed! The LGBTQI community is beautiful~

Nice work on the folds! I also quite like the details on the face, especially the cheeks.

I really like how you did this. Something about the face just makes me stop and stare. The colors you chose also are really nice. I'd say gorgeous, but that'd probably be expected with the title. But I think it is. <3
