Love this and glad things got better for you. But allies aren't part of LGBT
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They may not be queer, but they're very much a part of the LGBT community and a necessary one at that. I feel like it would be a betrayal to all of the allies that I had in my life who stood up for me when I needed it or gave me shelter or loved me when my own parents didn't, all of the things they've done for the community as a whole and tell them that they don't count.
Just like they didn't cave into societal pressure to disassociate with us, I'm not going to cave into societal pressure to exclude them. I don't know why so many people are so focused on making sure they know they aren't one of us, but it feels like more of the same hate we receive. I didn't fight to be included just so I could exclude others. Especially when more states are revoking certain rights that we just got. More than ever we need our allies. They have and always be a part of this fight for equality. They fought for me, so I'll fight for them.

I get where you're coming from. I'm sorry if I gave the impression that I hate allies or want to exclude them because I don't. I appreciate and value our allies and all that they've done for us and continue to do. I'm so glad you were able to find people who loved and accepted you when your parents didn't. But I feel like you can support a community without being part of it. Allies matter and we need them, even if they aren't queer. Does any of that make sense? I hope I didn't offend you. Love your username btw.

I may have mistaken your intentions a bit. It seems like there's so many people trying so hard to exclude allies. Even before the internet got so popular there were people trying to exclude them. I'm sorry for that. I hope I didn't offend you. 💜

I'm Nonbinary and I consider myself demisexual, pan-romantic. How about yourself? I see a bi flag! 💜

I thought that I would ask because I didn't want to assume. And yes, it's really refreshing to meet other ace friends. Sometimes it seems like there are more and more of us so hopefully that will lead to less ignorance. I'm tired of all the weird questions.
I prefer they/them but I'm also cool with masculine or feminine pronouns. What are your pronouns?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I appreciate that. And I completely agree with you. In my experience, the people that have been the most accepting are LGBT people. I'm also sick of people invalidating identities that aren't gay or straight. That's neat about the pronouns. I don't really have a preference but if I had to pick, I'd go with masculine pronouns. Though I'm kind of questioning where I am on the spectrum. How did you know you were ace?

It took a lot of soul searching and questioning things. I had boyfriends and girlfriends and always sort of figured that being just bi was a good enough label, though it never really fit. People kept asking if I preferred one gender or another. That question always got the same answer of "50/50". People didn't like it and kept pressing. One time a friend asked "if you were in a room and saw a hot guy and a hot girl, who would you approach?" I said neither. He still wasn't happy with that answer and kept bugging me about it. I told him that I needed to get to know them before I could decide. I think that's when I first started to go down the path of asking myself the right questions.
Later I noticed that there were people who were always just people to me and as I got to know them I would slowly start to develop feelings. Even their faces started to become more attractive. Once I started to fall for someone though I always fell hard.
The ironic part is that my friend's name was Ace and he helped me discover that I was Ace. Lol

Aw I see. That's neat that your friend's name was Ace. Was he also ace? Can I note you how I found out?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He was not Ace and he's the kind of person who's pretty closed minded about it. And yes you can absolutely send me a note. ^_^

Ah sorry to hear that. It makes me sad when people are that way. Do you not talk to him any more? What are your favorite artists? I will
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
We used to catch up every once in a while but not anymore. We lost touch gradually.
I think my favorite artist right now is my brother in law Skull Garden. I don't know if he still uses DA tho.

I see. Will check him out. But I mean musical artists. Also I noted you

Oh! That's a tricky question. Rasputina, Jinjer, Lacuna Coil, and Twelve Foot Ninja are my favorites right now.

I really want one but how do I explain to my parents why I have a lbgt button--- can't come out cus my dads a homophobe

I've been there. It's rough. Things will get better though. Once you're out on your own and have your freedom it's amazing! I'm still dealing with some stuff with my family. My brother's wife is now his husband and he decided to stand by his spouse no matter what. I thought that was really amazing and special of him to do, but my family isn't on the same page.
When my parents found out that I was queer, they kicked me out and I was homeless for a bit. It didn't take long for me to get a place, but once I did, it was AMAZING! They've kinda-sorta come around to accepting that I'm queer, but still don't get it? It's fine, I don't need them to understand all of the nuances of being queer, I just need them to understand that sometimes my partners will be the same gender as me or sometimes they're not. I'm trying to get them to understand that I'm Nonbinary too, but they're still trying to wrap their heads around my brother in law, so I don't see it happening anytime soon.
Hang in there!
