i used to crush so hard on almost all the girls in my 8th grade class, especially this one girl, whenever she came close to me i got this really tingly feeling lol, but didnt really think about it that much at the time. around my preteen years i didnt think about how loving people of the same gender was considered "wrong" to lots of people around m...... 1 reply
I was about 8 when I realized that I looked at girls in much the same way I looked at boys. In case it's not obvious, I'm bi. I was raised by my brother, who is gay, and his friends and lovers. So, I was surrounded by same sex couples, mostly male but there were some female couples as well, my entire life. This helped me accept, easily, the idea th...... 2 reply
Well, I tend to meet them regularly so not anything special, But I asked my sister this question so here's her answer:
"It's normal, I don't think anything special of it. I do think that person reads too much manga though, cause they obviously think that manga is a correct portrayal of the gay world. Crush their dream, cause it's not. Feel embarra...... reply
It's fucking horrible living in such a homophobic country with damn homophobic parents. I have to keep making fun of gays on tv to be a good child to my mother. And then, when I like someone, they never think of me more than a friend. I might be the one to blame in that but how can I trust the person I like? Even if they aren't homophobic I just ha...... 1 reply
I saw this question and have been reading the manga for half an hour lol. The character is lucky though because we have more than just some porn that you only see when you search. I mean we fucking have tumblr! All the social media apps we see and make fun of lgbt+ people, in good and bad ways. But I was the same as you and I didn't realise it unti...... 2 reply
I accepted myself at around 7th grade, before that j hated nyself for being this way. I had never seen or experienced any phobes but i had heavy internalized phobia. Then i looked to the internet as an escape but found that i wasnt the only one with this "problem". Pretty soon i realised that it really wasnt a bad thing. 2 reply
To me, it was simple... I think I'm bi or maybe pan -don't know, don't care :D- but I realized around 15, 16 y/o, perhaps earlier. But it wasn't a surprise or a shock, it was just like something natural, like I always knew it, just it didn't get my atention before (⌒▽⌒) 3 reply
I found out I was Bisexual!
That was because I am an unconfident little shit and kept comparing myself to other girls. But I stopped comparing and start admiring, I began to realise I would date and love a girl or a guy so that's how I happened! ╮(￣▽￣)╭ 2 reply
The character was nonchalant about it so I wonder how everyone else are.
Personally, I found out about it when I had this crush on a classmate who's cute and handsome. This was when I was in Kindergarten (6yrs old)... It didn't freak me out but rather I thought it was something normal. Like, I thought everyone else knew about it just like how everyone just know that a girl likes a boy or something like that. I thought that way until I was 10 yrs old when my classmates teased me for being "too girly and weak". That's also when I realized everyone makes fun of and hates gay people.
P.S. I still have a crush on him though even now. We've been classmates and/or schoolmates through grade school, highschool, and college, seriously. xD
Another pansexual here (I'm also a transman but that's neither here nor there). For one thing, the "gay world" isn't really a thing? There's LGBT+ culture, yeah, but us queer folk don't live in some separate dimension. Also, straight/cis people will never know more about queer culture than actual queer people. The experience of being queer is more ...... reply
