What LGBTQ+ topic do you wish more people knew about? This could be a queer icon, a piece of history, knowledge about certain labels, specific philosophy topics (or notable philosopher), art, or anything else. Also if there are topics that you wish specific sub populations had greater access to or knowledge of, feel free to qualify (for example, you might wish there was greater knowledge about a specific cultural gender to all cultures which don’t have exposure to this gender, or a desire for your local gay community to be more educated on a topic important to you).

    That there are divisions and prejudice within the community. It’s better for everyone involved to put on a united front, but unfortunately people get put down and marginalized even in supposedly queer-friendly spaces all the time. In my own circles, it happens a lot with bisexual men and non-binary/gender non-conforming persons in particular.

          You aren’t messing it up. You are just you. She chose you for a reason ❤️

          At the end of the day, love matters far more than what society thinks or what labels we identify as.

      I’ve gotten worse treatment in the lesbian community than any other. Demanding tolerance from others doesn’t immediately mean that those people demanding tolerance are tolerant themselves.
