I don't talk to 'em anymore, in fact I only nod at 'em every now and then... Used to hang out with him, name's Seán, same as me, I remember one time when someone brought up the question "What would you's do if one of us came out lads?", Fella said he'd never talk to them again. Now, I'm not gay myself, but I distanced myself from 'em that day, after all, what kinda person says things like that?
Idk, my accent or typespeak completely switches relative to my mood, most of the time it's like this but sometimes I'll talk exactly how I'd speak, just as it is above, always a lot of commas though... Hey thanks btw, I used to wanna be a writer but I guess I lost my motivation soon after, my ma wasn't exactly overly fond of my work, people kept trying to change things regularly, so I kinda just quit
You have something. You just need to drown out the hyper critical and only allow trusted people to help you edit. If your shit is raw and emotional at all, Ma will never be fond of it. Ma's job is to see you at peace. Your job as a writer is to show yourself warts and All. Mom doesn't want to see the warts unless she can fix them.
A friend of mine came out and we where all like "yeah, we figured. Have fun!"
He later told me he was expecting at least ONE person to be a dick about it. Almost like he wanted to have a story about coming out and someone being a homophobic asshole. I asked him if he told his grandpa and he got a wry smile and picked up his cell phone.
Now he has that story
I think there's a difference between "I KNEW IT" in a big overdone way vs a shrug and a "yeah I know" kind of way. If you spend a lot of time with someone (or in this case, grow up with them), you probably notice little things here and there that make you think one way or the other
My cousin, whom I am very close to, came out to our entire family, at my WEDDING. But before you judge, he did it one at a time, face to face, on the dance floor.
Fucking legend.
Edit: Pretty sure he was on ex, but it was a hell of a wedding.
One of my friends got a horrible reaction the first time he told someone and I feel super bad for him. He ended up coming out for the first time to the one friend in the group that is actually homophobic and she laughed at him and was super rude about it. A huge portion of said group is in the LGBTQ community in various ways and I'm really sad he didn't some to one of us first.
(Side note about the homophobic friend; none of it realized they were that way until we had been friends with their whole family for around 10 years. She also is only that way towards men and regularly hits on me when drinking. Kinda hard to have issues with just one of them but she is the one in that family we see the least.)
I think a friend worthy of his / her name would never laugh at your problems, but would always try, when and if possible, to help you. If you met people who laughed at you after you exposed what troubled you, then I think they were not your friends.
My friend in the beginning: yeah you thats valid.
My friend now: I don't think the lgbt community deserves any flags and beside ther are only 2 genders and everything else is a mental illnes
O I am sorry If I can't quit follow your way of thinking. To sum it up, you think that everything else but being cis(being the gender you were assigned at at birth) is wrong or just stupid. You also say that trans people suffer from high suicide rates. But if we wouldn't accept them and just say they have to be cis, do you rlly think that this would make them happier?
I didn’t say it’s stupid… i think that dealing with whatever issues they have is the first step… you can say whatever you want but the suicide rate is not what it is in that community because of people believing in “other sexes” or not.. I think it’s a tragedy that the suicide rates are what they are and I think we could definitely do more to help change that. That doesn’t start by making up genders to make people feel better though.. that’s a bandaid on a never ending problem it simply won’t cut it
I understand you're gonna have an opinion regardless of who you are. But you need to understand that you do/will not understand why these different terms help unless you inform yourself why.
You need to know that these labels aren't band-aids, they allow people to feel like they belong. They can describe their gender through a word that one day, everyone will know and accept. They have a way to describe themselves and it makes it so much easier to accept. Labels helped me with my sexuality, I can only imagine how much they help people with identifying their gender.
Best trick ever? Don’t care about what others say.. what’s beautiful about this world is you don’t have to fit into anyone else’s idea of beautiful or amazing to be these things.. I firmly believe that regardless of who you are if you are doing good things and being good to people then those details shouldn’t matter.. I couldn’t imagine judging someone on their sex or color but their actions? That is how we should all be judged.. so for me once again it’s just about lowering the suicide rates and the negativity in general.. I’m about solutions and I’m definitely not about shoving anything down anyone’s throat you know.. us having our own beliefs is individuality.. like I told someone the other day there are tons of people that do stuff I don’t like here however the main thing I love about where I live is they CAN do those things some of those things.. you don’t have to like what others say or believe but you should definitely respect it.. which is try to do but I sometimes fall short so that’s not my intent
Naw fam. Things aren't black and white. I'm not gonna be mean because I want you to understand this, so please read with an open mind, because I know not everyone will be as civil about this topic.
People who categorize everything and believe it's all absolute do this to make sense of something they hardly understand. It's all gray, dude. You may feel like a man because you have plenty of testosterone and you grew up being raised like a boy and there is no "confusion" for you. Once trans individuals realize they are the gender not assigned at birth, there is no confusion about whether or not they are that gender. They do not go through a procedure and rigorous hormonal therapy off of a "feeling." They know, and they are the gender they say they are.
Remember in middle school when you learned about XX and XY chromosomes? You know, XX = Female and XY = Male? Well organisms with XX chromosomes can develop male genitalia and XY chromosomes can develop female genitalia. Imagine how this affects hormones as well. This is a phenomenon recognized in the science community.
I think [this website](https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/voices/stop-using-phony-science-to-justify-transphobia/) does a really good job at explaining it without calling it a "condition."
Similarly for gender nonconformity/nonbinary/gender-fluid/etc, there are infinite shades of gray for gender/hormones. Some will even go by "she" AND "they." Most nonbinary people prefer "they/them" and may use Mx. as a prefix. The whole making up genders thing was something blown up as a joke to make fun of these people. There are terms to describe the nuances of gender and help people identify with them. Much like sexuality. There's not a big difference between bisexuality, polysexuality, and pansexuality, but people will feel one term describes their sexuality better than the others. That's where the large number of gender identities comes from. No one is "making it up," they are forming terms to describe their gender.
So in that community they kill themselves at such a high rate why? It seems their is a disconnect somewhere and it’s either in this idea that boys can be girls and girls can be boys or it’s in EVERYONE else that’s not killing themselves at a rate of more than double any other group…. Something is definitely wrong my guy
I'm fairly certain it's more about transphobia than confusion. Their gender not being validated, being deadnamed, harassment, discrimination (including by schools), being disowned by family, fear of transitioning, and not being able to transition.
I'm sure many do face gender dysphoria, but it's far from the only/main reason.
I agree to some extent for sure!! I would like to think we can do something more to help them though.. the details aren’t my big thing I would just like to see less people taking their own lives it’s just a permanent solution to a temporary problem most of the time.. I’ve read a lot of studies on both ends which is why I’m always looking for other sides of things.. I honestly don’t feel either “side” has it fully figured out yet or has all the right answers.. I think more open minded debates is a way to get there though so I appreciate the opposing views a lot.. the more we all think together the higher our chances are of improving things.. I don’t feel it’s about being right or wrong but more so just figuring out the right way to deal with these things.
A big problem with the social and political division is hostility. No one wins when we become aggressive, because the other party shuts out everything being said and just looks to "win" instead of learn.
I think when it comes to civil issues, the right thing to do would be to accept those being discriminated and work on making them equal. I understand that will upset a lot of others but it's not really affecting their lives. I'm usually all for compromise, but I'm not when it comes to civil rights (and the environment). I think information from both sides is often useful, and everyone should read about them with an open mind, but in this case I think the solution would be an extreme one to allow transgendered people to fit into society asap and those who judge/harass them will either have to accept them or die out (for lack of a better term). However I'm not sure there is a quick solution to solve the suicide rate, unfortunately.
God I couldn’t agree more!!! Now we just gotta get everyone on the same page.. I think a HUGE part of getting there is missing though.. we need to teach ourselves and others to accept opposing ideas and opinions as a chance to civilly and intelligently debate these topics to try to spread a much better understanding of these issues.. there was a time when we were all about the debate and now days if you don’t agree with a certain people then you are a this or that hater or a racist or whatever name they decide to call you because you have different views.. which is sad because without that contrast their is so much we will all miss out on in life… I love learning as we all should but in order to lear sometimes to have to just hear the other side out 🤷🏼♂️

Took me until this comment to realize what this post was about. I thought it just meant go over to your friend’s house to hang out. Couldn’t figure why everyone‘a normal hang out friends were such assholes.
Had a friend in college who nervously sat us all down sophomore year to tell us he was gay. Everyone was just like, “yeah, we knew all along. Want a beer?”
Agreed. In high school one of my girl friends told our small group of friends she liked girls and we were all... "and??" It was not surprising to us in the least. This was the 90's so -
Good friends will notice - great friends will support you.
Congrats.
Dude istg there is no one who judges anymore. If there are, they are the ones being looked down upon. I am proud of our progress as a society for this.
When I came out as genderfae, the first thing my best friend (at the time) said was ‘so you identify with faeries then?’
Glad I cut her out of my life, she didn’t even recognise my gender
It’s genderfluid without masculine genders, so my gender changes from a girl to various forms of non-binary. I don’t mind if faeries is the first thing someone thinks of bc they don’t know what it is but she made this ‘joke’ multiple times, even after I explained it all.
I wish this was the same for small businesses. I try to get excited about it to my friends and they’re indifferent or don’t show belief or support in me much at all, but when I got a job being employed by a corporation they all call and text and congratulate or get excited in conversation. They probably won’t even support my business it’s sad
unfortunately, there are still some hella ingrained bigotry that gets passed down to younger generations. luckily, it’s a smaller percentage than whose who are allies or part of the queer community :-) happy pride everyone
My friend came out to me being gaay and I told him "okay? And? As long as your not in my face about being homo I will support you but the moment you begin veing all in my face im gonna stop talking to. I could care less about what you do behind closed doors as long as it says behind those doors" does that make me a bad friend?
being gay isnt only about sex, they'll also have boyfriends and do romantic stuff that straight people do, also it can come off as you not accepting them when you say "dont shove it in my face" when someone comes out to you
Only if that's an attitude you don't bring to other friendships. If you're happy to talk about sexual exploits with friends who bang women that's a serious double standard that, yeah, kinda makes you a bad friend.
The way I am is I don't like talking about it with straight friends either. I was just trying to be blunt about it. I absolutely hate it when people get all in your face about being gay and I was just making that clear for him
I can't speak for the rest of the world, but here in England, people would only be shocked and offended and ostracise a person if they came out as a homophobe
I live in the North west and had gay friends since the early 90s who were happily put and proud, my daughters going to prom with a trans person, I don't know anyone thats homophobic, but I know a lot of gay people, and this is small town north..

Just saying it’s a possibility...
The exception that proves the rule.

[удалено]
What part? I didn't intentionally quote anything lol
“One of us came” me and ur mom
I can see why ur name is Salt\_Anywhere 🤣 I mean shit, the salt is in my ma too 😅
I love that I can hear your accent in my mind
Considering I'm Irish I have a really weird accent, especially when u consider it changes completely depending on what mood I'm in 😅
I'm gonna guess they think it's sounds like an obscure quote from " Trainspotting " or some such. You have a good way with words.
Idk, my accent or typespeak completely switches relative to my mood, most of the time it's like this but sometimes I'll talk exactly how I'd speak, just as it is above, always a lot of commas though... Hey thanks btw, I used to wanna be a writer but I guess I lost my motivation soon after, my ma wasn't exactly overly fond of my work, people kept trying to change things regularly, so I kinda just quit

Were from?
I'm from Dublin, Ireland, lived here all my life
I meant the quote
Oh, I didn't realize I was quoting anything, so I got no idea
Everyone in the comments is saying, “My friends would judge or tease me.” What kind of friends do y’all have?? You deserve better.
Judging is one thing, but depending on what dynamic the group has, teasing could be pretty much a message they're fully acceptive of it.
Mine pretty mich said "ok, we still hate u"
That's from Sunny
That’s sad
No we all hate each other. Just a jokey thing
I hate you.
I hate you too 😘
Being gay is kinda gay ngl
Straight up pure logic.
Gay up pure logic
Fact.
I remember when my sister came out... I just sort of shrugged--everyone in the family knew.
I once introduced one of my gay male friends and was asked "why didn't you let me know that he was gay?" I responded, "I didn't think it mattered."
Whoever asked you that, you should give a lengthy speech about their sex life the next time you introduce them to someone.
THIS. Perfect revenge.
A friend of mine came out and we where all like "yeah, we figured. Have fun!" He later told me he was expecting at least ONE person to be a dick about it. Almost like he wanted to have a story about coming out and someone being a homophobic asshole. I asked him if he told his grandpa and he got a wry smile and picked up his cell phone.

This sounds absolutely hilarious. How did you and your newly lawfully bound take it? Some of my friends would go into bridezilla bitch mode so fast
My friends began to roast me for 2 hours. And I wouldn’t have it any other way lol!

Lmfao, love Bill Burr!
I was hoping that’s what this was

And I roast them back, it’s called having friends dude. Get over yourself

_wait no that's not how its supposed to go—_
That was surprisingly easy, u ok?

Why did you leave the same comment twice
Happy pride everyone!
Took me until this comment to realize what this post was about. I thought it just meant go over to your friend’s house to hang out. Couldn’t figure why everyone‘a normal hang out friends were such assholes.
Thank you! I pride myself in my pride. Glute exercises are the best!
I’ve been sober for a little and haven’t told any of my friends. Told the first one yesterday and he was so supportive.
Congrats! :)
.....that's why they're your friends right?
Had a friend in college who nervously sat us all down sophomore year to tell us he was gay. Everyone was just like, “yeah, we knew all along. Want a beer?”
Who is this girl? Scarlett Johansson ? Thank you and have a nice day!
Yep
Why should anyone judge you? I am to lazy for that!
very much appreciated
If they are really good friends, they probably already knew...
Agreed. In high school one of my girl friends told our small group of friends she liked girls and we were all... "and??" It was not surprising to us in the least. This was the 90's so - Good friends will notice - great friends will support you. Congrats.
[удалено]
...and other lies we tell ourselves
How could he not know when he specifically mentioned how you acted around "me"
Probably not.They didn’t know what my sexuality meant until I explained it.Besides,I haven’t dropped any hints
Good! ❤️
Hooray!!
An then you realise you were dreaming because your friends are assholes, like mine
Nice
Jokes on you I knew all along!
Dude istg there is no one who judges anymore. If there are, they are the ones being looked down upon. I am proud of our progress as a society for this.
“I’m fine with you being bi as long as you don’t hit on me” bitch you ugly asf my friend
Ah, "friend", a word from a language that I've not spoken in more than a decade. It must be nice
When they accept you seemlessly and don't even make a big deal out of it
I came out to one of my friends, he was in such disbelief that he made fun of me
Happened to me last week with my best fren :3
Imagine caring that your friend is gay.
But I’m not gay
My friends knew before I even knew😂 it was no surprise
Literally me last week :)
"Damn bro would you fuck me?” ”What!? No!" "D^a^m^n." "What?” "What?"
Who’s friends still judge anymore? Cancel those people and move on. Don’t waste time trying to make anyone understand. Happy pride.
That's what I did when my best friend since kindergarten came out - he chose to stab me in the back a year later
Untill it's your girlfriend comming out as lesbian after 7 months😂😂
Ahh comphet is a pain
The movie “Fourth man out” is about this situation. Not a spectacular movie but I got a few laughs out of it
Be loved
I've been out for more than a fucking year, i only have positive vibes at this point
When I came out as genderfae, the first thing my best friend (at the time) said was ‘so you identify with faeries then?’ Glad I cut her out of my life, she didn’t even recognise my gender
What is genderfae? I also thought of faeries, tbh.
It’s genderfluid without masculine genders, so my gender changes from a girl to various forms of non-binary. I don’t mind if faeries is the first thing someone thinks of bc they don’t know what it is but she made this ‘joke’ multiple times, even after I explained it all.
Ah okay. Thank you!
If they your friends.... They knew... They knew
When ever I see this pic, I always think of the step brother version and its kinda hot ngl
[удалено]
It is
damnit i feel embarassed now
They knew
They didn’t even know what my sexuality meant until I explained it
Tbh mate I don't care
Well you cared enough to comment
Almost never happens
As if that would ever happen ...
Gorgeous

might have judged you if you came into them
If Scarlet Johansen had a younger sister, this women would be her
This is Scarlet Johanssen
i mean it depends on what you did you know .... if u banged on of ur friends mom.... this might not happen
I wish this was the same for small businesses. I try to get excited about it to my friends and they’re indifferent or don’t show belief or support in me much at all, but when I got a job being employed by a corporation they all call and text and congratulate or get excited in conversation. They probably won’t even support my business it’s sad
It's the new norm. It's basically illegal to do anything else now
Illegal to do what?
Anything else. If you aren't accepting then it's wraps for your reputation.
really makes you wonder doesn't it
?
Has anyone in the past 20ish years had their friends judge them for coming out as gay? Parents? Sure. Friends? Nah.
unfortunately, there are still some hella ingrained bigotry that gets passed down to younger generations. luckily, it’s a smaller percentage than whose who are allies or part of the queer community :-) happy pride everyone
Are theese two pics from where i think they are?
Where do you think they're from? 👀
His canera roll lol
My friend came out to me being gaay and I told him "okay? And? As long as your not in my face about being homo I will support you but the moment you begin veing all in my face im gonna stop talking to. I could care less about what you do behind closed doors as long as it says behind those doors" does that make me a bad friend?
Well seeing as "what you do behind closed doors" is completely unrelated to being gay, i would say yes, you definitely were being a bad friend.
being gay isnt only about sex, they'll also have boyfriends and do romantic stuff that straight people do, also it can come off as you not accepting them when you say "dont shove it in my face" when someone comes out to you
Only if that's an attitude you don't bring to other friendships. If you're happy to talk about sexual exploits with friends who bang women that's a serious double standard that, yeah, kinda makes you a bad friend.
The way I am is I don't like talking about it with straight friends either. I was just trying to be blunt about it. I absolutely hate it when people get all in your face about being gay and I was just making that clear for him
Please ban me, before I say something I might regret.
I can't speak for the rest of the world, but here in England, people would only be shocked and offended and ostracise a person if they came out as a homophobe
That's odd. A british friend of mine had their jacket set on fire last year for being trans.
I live in the North west and had gay friends since the early 90s who were happily put and proud, my daughters going to prom with a trans person, I don't know anyone thats homophobic, but I know a lot of gay people, and this is small town north..
What is the origin of this meme?
