      Hot take:
      While I do not harbor any ill will towards the LGBTQ+ community in particular, I do not consider myself a "straight ally". It implies that straights and LGBTQ+ people are somehow enemies, and that I'm one of the "good ones". A bit like the saying "you're a credit to your race". I suppose I just find the label superfluous, demeaning, and counterproductive. The way I see it, people are just people. I will judge them not by traits, but by actions.

    I agree mostly with this one, the rainbow represents the entire LGBTQIA+ community as whole, but sometimes more specifically gay men (mlm or man loving man). Homosexual men do have their one pride flag now, and it is similar to the lesbian flag but with greens and blues, if you want to find this flag I recommend googling “mlm flag”.
    1:49
    I mostly agree with this too, although being lesbian does not mean just a woman who is attracted to other woman. Lesbianism is when a non-man is attracted to another non-man. Lesbians can be demigirls, genderfluid and sometimes non-binary (nblw).
    2:00
    First of all, it’s actually pink, purple and blue, not red. Second of all, bisexuals do not have to be a man or a woman who love men and women. Bisexuals can be people of any gender (female, male, non-binary, ect.) who are attracted to two genders, hence the prefix “bi”. Bisexuality is usually someone who is attracted to men and women, but not always, they are attracted to two genders. These two genders can be women and non-binary people, men and genderfluid people, man and women, ect.
    2:30
    Transgender is an umbrella term, just like the term “homosexual”. Homosexuality isn’t just gay and lesbian people, it’s an umbrella term that describes people who don’t identify as straight. This includes bisexuals, pansexuals, lesbians, and anything that isn’t heterosexual. Transgender also has mini labels too, but the main definition of transgender is someone who transitions from one gender to another. Usually people associate transgenderism with women transitioning to men and men transitioning to women, but this is not the case. The transgender umbrella consists of women transitioning to non-binary, men transitioning to demiboys, women transitioning to men and so much more. But yes, ftm (female to male) and mtf (male to female) people are most commonly referred to as transgender.
    (PS, the reasoning behind the colours of the trans flag is that they’ve transitioned. Transitioning is kind of like rebirthing as a new gender, so that’s why they chose baby pink and baby blue.)
    2:43
    Pansexuality is genderblindness. Being genderblind is to not see a difference in one’s gender. Pansexuals are people of any gender who are attracted to all genders, regardless of gender identity or pronouns. (Also I’m sure that it was unintentional, but you classed transgenders as different to regular men and women by accident. Transgender women are women and transgender men are men, that’s that.)
    3:17
    Intersexuality is when someone does not show or shows a mixture of femininity and masculinity, or being _physically_ androgynous. If one is born with an assigned gender but does not identify as any gender now, they may be non-binary or agender.
    3:45
    Completely agree here, asexuality is the lack of _sexual_ attraction. It does not mean they cannot have romantic relationships, otherwise they would be considered aromantic, which is the lack of romantic attraction.
    *(I’m not going to discuss the “tribes” because some find it offensive, because it’s grouping people based on stereotypes.)*

    Heterosexuality is not apart of the LGBTQIA+ community. We appreciate allies and we love straight people but if you are straight, cisgender and not at all in relation to the LGBTQIA+ community, the you simply aren’t LGBTQIA+. Heterosexuals don’t necessarily have a flag, but that’s because, believe it or not, they aren’t necessarily oppressed either. If you aren’t LGBTQIA+ and you’re feeling like we’re leaving you out of our community, then too bad, you guys kinda killed us for existing for years and our suicide rates are far higher than yours in today’s world.

They were cool with it, but they had to ask me what that meant (I come from a heteronormative island community. Not necessarily homophobic but they said the attitude to sexualities has improved in the past 20 or so years).

      Well I encourage you to know how to delete your browser history if you don't want them to find out. But First off, Happy Pride Month! Second, when and if you need it, we have an entire playlist on our channel to help you come out, help prepare you for what might happen, help prepare you for things after you come out which you might not think about right now, and more. We will be adding a lot of episodes to this playlist within the next month because we make a lot of coming out advice videos during Pride Month but for now, I hope this helps. If you have any questions or need specific advice though, please ask. And always know that there is no deadline or rush to come out if you don't feel it's safe to come out right now. No matter what, you will always be loved and accepted by the entire LGBTQ community so you're not alone. We will be right by your side. Anyway, here's the playlist and we're here to talk if you need. czcams.com/play/PLfTZ0wcFky5rfubwR2GxKgFuA0h6_fxT8.html

    Been on a really great journey for the past 2 weeks reading, watching and listening to anything LGBTQIA+. Joined 2 discord servers just to chat with people after i watched their twitch streams. Been reading post from subreddits such as r/lgbt , r/trans, r/asexual etc. Before all of this I would have conciderd myself a heterosexual straight male, but after having done all of this I've started to question myself. My first intention was just to watch and learn from something i wasn't really familiar with, and it ended up helping me question my life and if i really was just straight. Thank you all for just being who you are and i would really love to have conversations with you to learn more about your point of view, so please, comment here and ask or just tell me anything. Happy Pride month everyone, love you all!

    I am a straight ally but I would never consider for a moment that we need a flag, nor have I ever felt excluded for not having a specific flag aimed at me. I always just flew the more common rainbow flag for gay men. Didn't even know there were all of these different flags. I honestly thought the rainbow just represented all people of all stripes and colours. Not to say that this doesn't make sense, but I just didn't know all of this. Very informative, thank you... Also, do I actually have to use the straight ally flag? I don't want to have to seek that out, I am lazy. Is it cool if I continue to fly the same flag? I don't care if people make the assumption that I am homosexual, so that's my plan but I guess I should ask what is preferred by the people that I am supposed to be an ally of.

      Why in the world would any sexuality not be valid? For a starters, anyone who doesn’t think another sexuality isn’t valid besides their own - more than likely they aren’t too comfortable in their own sexuality and they’re jealous that you are. That’s number one. Two, of course you’re valid and loved.
