Exchange advice about coming out to your family and friends as LGBTQ+ or otherwise!

I don't think I could ever come out. I mean I don't really consider myself in the closest tho either. I consider myself bisexual. because sure I want a man not a boy but females (are hot) are so slay and having a gf would honestly be cool too. my family so really religious so I feel like my parents would be like "it's all in your head" or something. but I also am not close with my parents so I don't talk to them because it's uncomfortable. also as a neurodivergent I feel like a lot of us are lgbtq. also could somebody please explain what the difference between gay and lesbian are. is lesbian just another term for bi ? I'm not good with the meaning of terms.

in 10th grade (I was a choir kid all throughout HS) just randomly I asked all the friends I had at that time if they thought I was bi or something and all of them said yes. which is funny. and then my senior year one of my friends said something along the lines " I can see it in the way you dress and walk" (there was a third something but forgot) I was like "huh, the way I walk" lol

me ranting over here. for me I think females choosing between masculine and feminine is honestly stupid like why hold yourself back to only one. because female or male everyone has both. I have a cousin that's gay I think or whatever term it is she has a gf well fionace but she's def more masculine and we were chatting one day and she was reminiscing on the days she dressed more female and wore hoops and im like you can switch it up wear something more female if you want. I just think people who identify as either or shouldn't hold themselves back if they want to switch something up. I definitely don't pick a side because I'm just me and that's a lot of things.

everyone is both*

meant feminine not female *

Lesbian is the term for gay females, so women who are only attracted to other women.

Gay means only attracted to the same gender, can apply to men and women, but mainly used for men.

Bisexual means attraction to two more more genders

Hope this helps :)

i agree! honestly same with me i can be a very girly girl and a very not-girly girl and ive just decided to go with the flow

@barnette so bi doesn't mean attracted to males and females ? or does it

Yes, it does. But you can also be attracted to people other than males and females.

It's attraction to two or more genders. So that could mean you're attracted to males, females, and nonbinary people. It could mean attraction to just male and female, or attraction to just nonbinary people and males, any combination.

okay 👍🏻

I don't think I could ever come out as a ftm

as a what

trans man

oh okay. and why do you think you can never come out. family?

my society in general ain't so welcoming to transness

I do act hypermasculine, but still I feel as if I'm doing something wrong by not having anything to relate with feminity (my friends even criticised me regarding this)

well if your friends criticize you for who you are they don't really seem like friends

whelp it's almost all of my friends, most don't even know how to handle transness and stuff like that. it's such a new concept in my country

ohh okay
