I was legit accused of homophobia. I had to say "But I am gay?"
I want to thank sitemods and admins for looking out for me and wanting to make me accept my sexuality by having me defend it in front of an internet stranger
yeah that was a funny one. dont you worry comrades, modchat is currently a mess, we're doing our best to make sure everyone who was banned/punished deserved it and reverse the ones that didnt.
I mean, because I've never really thought I was straight. I didn't see myself as having a sexuality but rather "I am normal and straight is normal". And the idea of ending up in a heterosexual relationship (the only kind of relationship I could have) made me feel miserable. So I thought I was meant to be single for the rest of my life which also made me feel miserable. But maybe I feel like that because I am a self-admitted heterophobe
lmao im not asking you to justify yourself i was taking the piss
yeah i had a similar conundrum being trans. i never wanted to date anyone even though i very clearly found all genders attractive. turns out, i just hated my body. so much so that i legit thought i was asexual for a bit till i had a full conception of what being trans was.
I will share my gay angst if it kills me god damn it. And then when I was in 7th grade, I-
highkey i had so many boy crushes in 7th grade and i was so uncomfortable about it that i didnt talk to anyone at all that entire year
Admit that my secret alt name is epic, I'm saving it for when the time is right
I did not make this post to antagonize the mods. I'm guessing you were banned for using "gay" in the perjorative sense. I thought about reporting that. I can see why other gay people may not like that.
Hey sorry this shits happening to you too, thanks for sticking it out though, really appreciate it!
Yeah no I'm actually gay.
I'll admit that I haven't known I'm gay for a long time, only realised at the end of 2019, and I don't feel safe enough to completely come out irl, but still gay. Coming to terms with it has been one of the most healing things I've experienced in my life even if I still struggle with it sometimes.
No more nights lying awake speaking to myself like "so I know I'm not actually gay but what if I am... haha, ridiculous. but what if I'm not straight, that would be... inconvenient, unless? why do I feel grossed out by me?"
When I chose the username I knew there were gonna be people who'd take it the wrong way but I went with it because it was epic. I'm sorry if it hurt you, I try to make frequent users know that I'm actually gay.
Sorry for reporting you. I don't know you and thought you were being homophobic. If it's the comment I think it was, without context of the user, it wasn't a good look. Seemed like a natural thing to report
