#safe space lgbt

[prince-ashitaka]

Lets create a house where yelling means we’re having fun. When you hear a door slam you know it was accidentally pulled with too much strength, not slammed out of anger. When there is silence, it is Contentment, not another passive aggressive fight. The dog is no longer barking to protect, he simply just wants the cats to play with him. Let’s create a safe, warm environment that makes you feel like you can breathe, not hold your breath. Let’s stomp on the eggshells we use to tip toe on. Together we will make this house into a home. And welcome all with open arms into this kind and loving space.

Hey, wait! Please stop scrolling for a sec!

Please bear with me and read to the end! I promise it'll be worth it.

My name is Nexys, and I am queer and disabled. For years I have been striving to create the most tight-knit safe space (that's ACTUALLY safe) on the internet, using content creation as common ground. And we're really starting to take off!

But I need your help. Please reblog this post so that I may meet new people and make new friends! My community has been lifechanging, both to myself and to the people within it. I really feel like my Twitch, YouTube, and Discord communities have been making a difference in the lives of some of the most disadvantaged and marginalized people in the LGBT and neurodiverse communities.

We often play games like Minecraft, Stardew Valley, Harvest Moon, and Pokémon, with the occasional challenges and other genres thrown in. Sometimes we even invite our chat to play the games with us! So if this sounds like the sort of community you'd be interested in, please join our Discord Server so you don't miss out!

I'm a small creator, and due to my disabilities cannot hold down a normal 9-5 job, so any support and engagement from you—time or money—is a lifechanging opportunity that could potentially alter the course of my life and the lives of my loved ones. Even just dropping in to say hello would mean the world to me!

But I know time is a precious resource, so if you're too busy to sit in with us but still want to support the cause, for as little as $1/month you can become a Patron or for one-time donations buy me a Ko-fi! And depending on what you choose, there may even be some free artwork and other fun perks in it for you!

Thank you so much for your time! Me and my community really hope to meet you, and we hope that you, dear reader, have a fantastic rest of your day/night! Happy Pride!

❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷🤍🩶🖤🤎

Reblog to give a trans person a hug this pride month 🩵🤍🩷

Aromantics are valid.

Asexuals are valid.

Aroaces are valid.

The world doesn't revolve around relationships, grow the fuck up.

If someone is happy single, then they are fucking happy. No, they aren't "wrong in the head", they are valid.

If you don't agree, stay the hell away from me.

There is a '+' in LGBTQ+ for a reason.

The 'A' is NOT for 'Ally', it is for Aromantic, Asexual, and/or AroAce.

People on the Aromantic spectrum and Asexual spectrum are LGBTQ+.

[miintlxtte]

hey! here’s a reminder

trans people don’t owe you passing

bisexual/pansexual(etc) people don’t owe you a same-sex relationship

aro and/or ace people don’t owe you a complete absence of attraction

- aromantic people don’t owe you a lack of dating

- asexual people don’t owe you never having sex

gender-fluid people don’t owe you a “gender-aligning” appearance

agender people don’t owe you androgyny

neurodivergent people don’t owe you masking

alternative people don’t owe owe you a “normal” appearance

age regressors don’t owe you a want for you to be their cg

greg might owe you five bucks though. go tell him to fuck himself.

[risesthenight]

aromantic and asexual people deserve representation. we deserve to see characters who feel neither sexual nor romantic attraction. we deserve to see characters who only experience romantic or sexual attraction. we deserve to see characters who experience different types of attractions at different levels. we deserve representation for the variety that is the aromantic spectrum and the asexual spectrum.

y’all, I’m going to be real. I DO NOT CARE how you identify. you do not need to ask me “do you support x?”. unless you are an online troll who is using an actually harmful sexuality or gender identity in which then I’m blocking you. I’m not going to judge you or tell you how to identify. Be who you are and know this is a positivity account and you’ll never be seeing any kind of discourse or negativity around other peoples identities.

I forget to celebrate any and all trans (holi)days but celebrate every other lgbtq+ day for the same reason why I remind all my friends to eat food, drink water, and go to bed, but don't do those things for myself.

I just forget when it's about me ( ^ w ^ ")

[caesthoffe]

people have said "the girls and gays" so much that a lot of cishet women are under the impression that gay bars are spaces that should prioritize their comfort as well, even if they're not queer

Nothing makes me happier than meeting another lesbian irl.

Like omg hi… you’re so cool… and amazing… and please be my friend.

[uncanny-tranny]

I'm going to preface this by saying that I have really complex feelings about this, and much of it is inspired by my personal experiences and a bit of learning about what other trans people experience. If I come across as messy, it is because of these reasons.

There's this unshakable feeling I have that when allies and even other trans people talk about trans people, transition and motivation for transition, and anything related to such, that there's only certain things that x type of trans person can (and should) experience and talk about.

Like, when people talk about FtMs/trans men/transmasc people, a common idea is that we're motivated to transition to game the system, to manipulate people into treating us better because we're now seen as men. A huge reason I never even bought into that idea is because, since transition (especially medical), I have been treated worse than I ever have been. Since transitioning and being on testosterone, I've been catcalled, had people insist I hand my number over, and I have to emphasize that I've never experienced these things until a couple of years ago (to clarify, this was in my real, corporeal life). I honestly can say that, while transition has saved my life and soul, I am treated worse by others than I ever had been pre-transition. However, because the idea of transmascs is that "they were victims of misogyny and they only want to escape it through transition" is popular even among some trans people, I feel like it's almost... taking something away by acknowledging that. Add to this that I'm white and that TPoC have so many experiences that intertwine with race, and that race absolutely goes into how trans people are treated.

I am not saying that my experience is the only valid or true one. I am very aware that I'm probably an outlier. However, I just notice that, time and time again, people hear what they want to hear about transness, and if people have even slightly different points of view from their experiences, it doesn't matter, or worse, those people are duplicitous and conniving.

I know I've only just started posting on this account and I don't really have a lot of followers yet but I'm making this loud and clear for y'all just in case there was any doubt for whatever reason

As an American,

You are not welcome in my community if you support Donald Trump

I've already been messaged by a friend that one of their childhood trans friends has already taken their own life.

With that being said,

This is a safe space for everyone!!

‼️‼️‼️PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REACH OUT IF YOU'RE STRUGGLING WITH ANYTHING ‼️‼️‼️

I will listen to you!! I will hear you!! Don't ever be afraid to reach out to me!! I don't care if I don't know you and I don't care if your situation takes forever to explain!! Whatever I can offer to keep you from going down that road.

Don't let them see what this is doing to us, they want to see us struggling

We're fighting back, you're not alone! You're never a burden to me or anyone else around you who cares about you! We will get through this! And a friendly reminded

It's not over yet, a lot still has to happen

Any hateful messages that I receive after this will be blocked <3

Thank you for reading!

Why do people not like Pudding? I mean honestly, she's just a messed up kid in an adults body, and seeing her change Sanji's memory and her reflecting on how destroyed she was emotionally by finally being accepted, loved, seen as beautiful for an element that her family saw as gross and monstrous just hit me.

I'm sure any queer person raised in religious environments or conservative environments should see what I mean when I say it cut me deep.
