- Just popping in to highlight some really cute, lovely things that people have done, especially in light of The Super Straights haha. Let me know what you think!
Plushie Jamie: bit.ly/3e9X4yH - Zábava
My grandparents were married for like 70+ years. My grandma said, that if grandpa dies first, she would probably immediately die after him. But if she dies first, she'll be sitting in front of Saint Peter's gate and she would wait, because she wouldn't go anywhere without gramps.
She died first, at the age of 92. My grandfather lived another 4 years, but at the age of 102 he died too. I hope they found each other, wherever they moved forward.
omg that's so adorable im gonna cry-
That legit made me cry, I'm sure they're very happy toghether
wholesome but goddamn, 6 year age gap
@@grey7685 a 6 year age gap isn’t that big a deal for adults, especially not at ages nearing 100.
@@grey7685 So? My parents are 10 years apart. My best friend and their finace are 15 years apart.
What does age gap matters, if the participants are all consenting adults?
I'm bisexual and my boyfriend of 2 years is straight and every time he sees anything remotely gay, he's like LOOK, DO YOU LIKE IT? It's honestly adorable and it melts my heart how hard he tries to show me that he fully accepts me. Once he sent me a pic of a pretty girl being like 'She's not my type but I know she's yours'. Love him.
Alakdjjejskks straight men in relationships with bi women that openly acknowledge their partner’s bisexuality and validate them make me so happy! Your bf sounds lovely, and the way you describe your relationship gives me big Justin and Sydnee McElroy vibes
He sounds so awesome!!
🥺❤ Mah hawt, mah soul....
Same here! I love that my straight boyfriend accepts all of me! ❤️ We've found some lovely guys 😁
THIS IS THE CUTEST F'N THING I'VE SEEN ALL DAY
"Is it possible that your heterosexuality is just a phase that you may grow out of?"
My experiences and observations require that I answer *yes*
If you're saying sexual orientation can be a phase, then that goes both ways. I hope you think gays shouldn't be offended by the phase question, then.
@@elvancor normally, a real lot of heterosexuals were never actually heterosexual, but pretended to be the whole time for fear and for thinking it is the right thing to be. They try to force themselves daily to repress their feelings and create "the right" feelings they don't have. This leads to a lot of resentment and grumpiness.
for me, my heterosexuality was technically a phase 😀
If my sexuality is a phase it's a freaking long one. Been 25 years now.
@@ynntari2775 some of us also just don’t really realize that we’re not fully straight
My dad was somewhat a little homophobic but when i came out to him by accident one day, he was a little reluctant but he talked with me for a long time and i explained stuff to him and now my dad fully accepts me and often asks me questions about what’s okay to say and what’s not! i live my dad very much and i’m very proud of him for changing :)
Awh this sounds so wholesome.
I know it would be best if they were supportive from the begining, but stories like that always melt my heart. Love really does conquer all guys.
Aww that's so sweet of him 😄 kinda wish my parents would do this.. They always say "Eww homo stuff is disgusting!" or "I would literally k*ll them!" and me.. a non binary ace/aro.. was like 😓*oh shoot*
Good thing they will never know cuz I choose life 😅
this almost happened to me... then my dad forgot and started saying homophobic stuff again :/ im too scared to come out again cause hell hate me so much
I think we gotta give parents a tiny bit of slack. They're from a different time when Society brainwashed them into being intolerance of the gay community. The fact that they TRY and can get there even if it's slowly is enough for me. I'm glad he's growing as a person. My dad was never intolerant but hes one of those 'I live through the 60's i don't care about labels'. I had to explain to him the importance of pride because he didn't understand the need to 'rub it in peoples faces'. because to him it shouldn't matter he judges you by how you ACT. But after talking to him a lot he's grown so much more understanding and has even used his position in the Catholic church as a Deacon to speak to the congregation about tolerance to the trans and gay communities. I'm SO PROUD OF HIM. so it was easy for me to finally come out. All he had to say was 'just remember woman can be just as big of assholes as men' lol
My kid was completely convinced that my name is “Honey” until he was about 5-years-old because my husband calls me that so much.
If someone told him “your mom’s name is Annie”, he’d laugh like they were joking or look at them like they had 3 heads and say, “No, mom’s name is Honey. Hon-ey.”
And for a while after he knew my name, he assumed my middle name must be Honey.
Aww
@Le Homou bro what- that’s not even funny
@Le Homou 🥺?
@Le Homou and?
@Le Homou i use bro for everyone but sorry ig
This just shows the large difference between straight people and "the straights™️".
Definitely, straight people are pretty chill, the Straights™ are not
The Straights™️©️
Holy--I liked your comment and it was 420, one second later it turned to 436---good luck mate. Also yeah, OT is a Great Straight™, my mom is an example of a straight person, and then there are The Straights™
Exactly, those are the straights™️, then there are people who just happen to be straight, big difference
As a former Straight™️ and a current straight ally, yeah it’s a huge difference
As a straight, and a Christian, all I have to say is: “Jesus had two dads and he turned out fine.” Saw that via a comedian called Russell Howard.
to be honest I don't believe in the bible, but I do believe there are a lot of teachings of jesus that you an apply to your life even without believing he was the son of god or anything.
I think jesus is a prophet
Who's to say Jesus possibly isn't gay?
Bro's around men all the time
Orgies were extremely common back then
And if someone tells me I'm wrong
Your committing blasphemy by saying that cause you're assuming Jesus didn't have human tendencies :)
@@moon_wei How am i committing blasphemy by saying he was probably ace tho? Hah!
Love Russell Howard! Can still poke fun at ppl without being offensive
I came out to my mom as pan when she was ironing my pan flag and asked “what’s this flag for” and I said it was a pan flag then she asked what pan was and I explained it to her. Then she said “oh I like that” and I almost burst out in lauphter.
i love her reaction. you have a god tier mom
Recently a song came out in my native language (hungarian), which was about why gay people should stay between 4 walls, as a reaction to these "I'm accepting, but..." sentences. My mom said she liked the song and I asked her whether she listened to the lyrics too? She said no so I told her, and she said "oh, I like it even better then" :)
@@hannaszekely1768 bruh
PANTASTIC to hear! and I'm so happy to see another Pan. I don't know why I never seem to see other pansexuals so it's good to see my people out here. So Love on my sibling!
Omg can I send hugs to your mother 😭 /I have mommy issues sorry lol
Yesterday I made an impulse decision to make a custom hoodie that says "The world has more things to worry about than boys who kiss boys and girls who kiss girls." On the back and "it's not hard to be kind, you fool" on the front. It was nearly £40 and I regret nothing
That sounds absolutely gosh darn amazing and I hope it turned out well for you! :)
That sounds amazing
please tell me where u got that i want it so muchhhhh
@@elliem107 I did it on spreadshirt! It's a custom thing
@@Ash-de1mf ooooh okies i may almost definitely ask for that for my bday 😂
Thought: instead of Straight Pride and celebrating being straight, celebrate your partner. Go on a parade to shout about how great they are. Write an essay about everything good they've done. Celebrate your love by celebrating the one you love
Edit because there seems to be some confusion: this is a suggestion for straight people to celebrate their love/being straight in a more wholesome way rather than feeling the need to have Straight Pride. I'm not pushing the need to have romantic relationships. Aro and/or ace people are not being left out, because they are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and therefore part of regular Pride. Feel free to celebrate friends, family, and other loved ones as much as you want! Those just don't relate specifically to being straight the way a partner would
AND, this works for everybody. Do t have a partner? A friend then. No friends and you’re a loner? Parents. Orphan? Anybody that you know, maybe a classmate or someone at work, someone at Starbucks etc. etc.
@@divabhardwaj6381 or you can celebrate yourself too :D
@@doughnutgirl525 Tru! Spreading self-love is important too
Yes!! It'll be a universal pride
🥺 awwwwww
As a straight person, Im glad you guys can find people who are good. It still horrors me how many bad people there are out there
Yeah we are all humans and ofc people in any community are sometimes ok and sometimes not
Am I the only LGBTQ+ person in the comments
@@pandaell1029 No buddy, you are not alone.
Yeah, a lot of people might get the wrong idea about straight people from the internet. Most straights that I know are actually really accepting and chill, with the few exceptions just being terrible people in general
@Jalo Kalo Excuse me? Wtf??? I think Marcelo meant,by bad people,homophobes. Aka,YOU.
My straight super religious friend uses my preferred pronouns (they / them) with people when I'm not around, and corrects people each time someone misgenders me
Like.. these are such small and simple things, but they literally mean the world to me
Edit: to everyone who’s replied, liked this comment, or even just scrolled past it: I love y’all and I wish you nothing but the best
that's so amazing! I'm so happy for you :)
My brother always used to forget his ex transistioned and then I kept reminding him because I'm friends with his ex and now he uses the correct pronouns. Correcting people can make a huge difference
I read that as “super straight religious friend”
@@Gacha_Otomen bro same, it I re read it and that’s so sweet that your friend does that!
@@starry_. more like
Straight Religious Super Friend
My nan had Alzheimer's and when my family would visit her, she would whisper to my mum, "who's that handsome man you're with?" My mum would say, "Irene, that's your son," and my nan would look so shocked and say, "Nooooo...not my David. He's still a boy...My goodness he's all grown up," and she'd smile like she was so proud. I was too young to understand at the time, but now I realise, although it was sad that she lost some years, it was very sweet when she realised that that was her son.
awww, my family used to go to church with this old woman named dorothy, who had alzheimer's. i have a little sister named Dorothy and for quite a while after my sister was born, the old woman would always come over and ask for her name, and every single time, she forgot that they both had the same name. her reaction was always so cute "Dorothy? Why, that's MY name!". there is a sort of bittersweetness about people losing their memory, huh?
This made me cry very emotional little tears. All the best to you and your family 💕
THESE are the straights,the people from a few days ago are the straights™️,big difference
Hii, may I ask what kind of flag in your profile pic is? I don't think I've seen it before
The difference between
The straights
And
The *straights*
Is night and day
When adding ™️ to anything else, its funny, or a trademark, but when saying the "straights™️" theres actually a difference than saying "The straights"
@@NT-gq6tz the genderfluid flag! it when you dont have a fixed gender,so it switches between male and female back and fourth
@@medicalbasils I didn't know the meaning of the flag, thank you for explaining.
"Is your heterosexuality just a phase that you will grow out of?" Yes, I grew out of it by the age of six.
8
Ugh my 12 year heterosexual phase was embarrassing
Grew out of mine when I was like 9
I don’t even remember mine, I only know I’ve ALWAYS stared at pretty women. Literally *always.*
Took me till college to realize it. 😅
My dad used to be homophobic, transphobic, queerphobic, everything. My sister came out as lesbian, and I came out as agender, and started teaching him about why we need to have pride and how love is love. He's been talking about wanting to come to pride parades now and how he always is going to love us. And he's super supportive of bringing my sister places with her girlfriend and he wants us to be happy. He's 57 this year, and he just didn't understand that there was more than one form of love. My dad is my best friend.
Awww that's so sweet! My heart melted. So happy for you, your sister, and your dad! Wish you guys the best
I'm so glad it all worked out for you!
@@o_p0tterhead no offense but I don’t really like gay people
I love these little reminders people can change, if they're willing to try.
I love this! God bless 💓
As a cis straight person, I find it so incredibly embarrassing and just stupid with the whole ‘super straight’ and ‘straight pride’ crap...
Me too as a 80% straight person
We need more straight people like you, with common sense and human decency. Im not straight but, im so tired of the whole super straight bs, its literally just homophobes and transphobes invading our space so they feel special.
Yeah 99% of straight people are super straight already and would never date transgender willingly and neither would gay people
@@saccharine1452 That’s exactly what it is
@@Willowtree82 ok transphobe
I found a straight that's okay today:
I took my 7 and 4 year old daughters to a state park today. There's a booth at the entrance to pay for parking, and my 7 year old wasn't sure of her gender so she just asked, "Are you a boy or a girl or the other one?" (She always forgets the term non-binary). I was a bit embarrassed at her lack of tact so I explained that I'm a trans man so my kids ask about gender a lot.
Woman in the booth was really nice about it. She was all, "I'm a girl. I use she and hers." She also said she'd never been asked before but thought it was great to ask if you're not sure.
So nice! Now I've gotta coach my kids on their approach.
That is so cute and heartwarming. 😊🏳️🌈
That's so sweet😍
This made me cry happy tears!
As a trans that gets constantly misgendered and it's almost convinced that nobody cares about manners and correct gendering in public anymore, this makes me SO HAPPY and helps me hang onto the hope that one day.... one day the gender binary won't matter anymore, just love and acceptance of everyone.
Yooo 🥺🥺 SO CUTE!
That’s more of a cis being ok, but aww, that’s so cute☺️ 🥰
one of my friends is a cishet and he's literally so accepting, like he didnt treat me coming out as trans as a big shocking thing, he's like "thats cool bro" and uses my correct pronouns and name and everything because he is super funky and nice and i appreciate him so much B)
Reminds me of a friend’s family. Basically their attitude is “Oh you’re pan? Tell me if you need anything.” Love them so much.
My bf doesn't understand things very well, but he's so supportive.
I jokingly said 'hey, our principal just said gay rights!'
And he was like 'Wait! Is that a good or bad thing?'
'it's a good thing, It means he's supportive.'
'ok good I was about to fight a homophobe today.'
As a straight...I don't want my kids to be afraid of me hating them for being whoever they are destined to be. I want to hopefully raise them to know that they could bring any gender of partner home and I'll accept them. All I care about for my future children is for them to be treated right and happy, and do the same for their partners. 🥺
This sounds so obvious but if you aren’t already, please say that out loud around the house, as often as seems right. My parents didn’t and so I couldn’t be sure how they would react, and didn’t come out until I was in my 40s 😕
Oh, I missed the word future, ignore me 🤦😄
Its peoples like you we need, you're not my parent and yet I want to thank you :D
I think majority of my friends are honestly part of the LGBT community. I will have my kids around them often. I will make sure they understand that no matter who they are I will never judge them, love them any less, or be ashamed of them. I just want them to be happy and comfortable in who they are and with who they love. 🥰
I can't imagine my life without some of my closest friends who are all part of the LGBTQ+ Community, and just the thought of anyone disrespecting them just because of the gender of the person they love, enraged me. And I can't believe some Parents don't support their kids through it, I don't think my parents would even care if I brought home a partner that was the same sex as me, the biggest reaction would be "This was unexpected but it's a welcome surprise", why can't more parents just be happy for their kids.
Phew! I’m glad there are some that are alright. 😊
are you sure about that
I was going to say "well what about you?" but then I remembered that there's you and The Click.
you know that OT, you are one!
I've heard of a few, yeah. XD
THERE’S YOU!!!
I didn’t choose the spud life, the spud life chose me

When I came out as trans at age 12 (I think) my grandma bought 3 books on being transgender and the lgbtq community and quickly knew MUCH more lgbtq terms than me. I asked her once why some Christians use the bible to be homophobic for example and she simply just said they're interpretating it wrong, and that was that. Which is interesting cuz I remember her making small homophobic remarks when I grew up, guess she had personal growth when it was her own grandchild. I'm grateful our relationship never suffered bc of me being trans and bisexual. I was scared she wouldn't understand, but she did. Said I was the same grandchild I always was, nothing changed really. Not my personality or anything. She pleasantly surprised me. Now I've been out for around 8 years
My grandma took care of my grandpa for seven years after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and when he had to go to a home, she stayed with him all day, every day, and even spent the night most nights until he passed away. She was the one person he never forgot.
God dang it I’m crying, how dare you tell such a sweet story-
I love that. God bless 💓

My Grandparents are some of my favorite straights who have always been okay! They grew up in the same small town in Oregon, and started "courting" when my Grandpa came back from WWII and my Grandma was living at his family's house while she was finishing high school, since her family had moved away and she didn't want to switch schools for her last year. They would work on the farm, ride horses, swing dance together, and go for ice-cream dates at the local Dairy Queen. Then, they both went off to separate universities, but they wrote letters to each other all the time and continued to see each other whenever they could on weekends and such. They agreed they probably wanted to get married someday, but my Grandma insisted that she wouldn't do so until she'd finished her education, so they waited until after college. They are 91 and 96 years old now, and they've been married for almost 70 years. They've always been some of my favorite relatives to visit (my Grandpa's an amazing musician, and we always sing and make music together whenever I see them), and when I came out as trans about 7 years ago, they were some of the most supportive people. They sent me an email saying they weren't at all surprised and that it totally made sense to them, and that they'd pretty much seen me as a boy all along. (And ever since I was a little kid, my Grandpa has always called me by the nickname "Skip", way before he knew I was trans; for some reason it just seemed to fit.) And then on my next birthday, they sent me one of those cards that said "Happy Birthday, GRANDSON!" on it. My Grandma has kind of been having some memory issues as she's gotten older, and often can't seem to remember something you've just told her or what she did earlier, but she has a pretty wonderful memory regarding people she cares about, and I don't think I remember her EVER getting my pronouns wrong. Not once. Even some of my cousins, aunts and uncles, and parents have gotten them wrong (and annoyingly sometimes still do -- though thankfully not super often), but I don't think I've ever once seen my Grandma (or Grandpa, for that matter) slip up. Which I think is pretty sweet.
Woah this is so sweet, this made me cry. They are really okay. The okayest!
This is so cute :')
Your grandparents sound wonderful
My grandparents (mostly my Grandad) aren't the biggest supporters of the LGBTQ+ community but I know almost certainly that if I ever came out as a part of it they'd still love me all the same, they'd be a little confused but still loving. I just wish more people were open to change.
Your Grandparents seem perfect for you, in glad you've such loving people in your life
I don’t think my faith will ever be fully restored with all the “super straight” stuff.
Lol big gay
But this video is a good start :)
LOL same. 😂 I mean, it was transphobia and Nazism. 🤢
your pfp is very nice
@@Delaneyisbraindead
How was Nazism mixed into that?
I ask as a German 👀
For the professor one where its like "questions for the heterosexuals" it seems like a great idea except there will be one person that's like "wE sHoUlDnT bE tReAtEd LiKe ThAt... wHaT iF iT wAs SwItCheD" like Kyle take a seat it is switched-
more like they'll say some bs about how "being gay is a choice and everyone is straight and those saying otherwise are faking it" because they don't see any other sexuality besides straight as a real sexuality.
You are being heterophobic to meeeee 😫
I do think it's really hurtful to make fun of _all_ the straights imo, as a bi since birth that other half has been quietly deteriorating because some people are switching homophobia around, while every other LGBTQ person jokes in a chill way about it! 😄
Like it's really sad to me that some heterophobes are getting away with this because if it keeps going on then the fucking kids will be *_scared to be straight_* and we'll all die off 😂✊
@@humansmayglow While, yeah, there are people who hate all straight people (i've seen one or two real, unironic accounts of people putting cis/straight people on their DNI lists; i know they are real because they were linked in someone's signature on a forum site i use) and those people suck, the vast majority of the time, people are joking. Save for those few, I haven't met a lot of people who hate allies. With that in mind... yeah, it's not likely the human population is going to be hurt in any way, especially considering bi, pan, poly, etc. people are more than capable of repopulating.

--I am best friends with a cishet Christian woman. I came out as lesbian to her, and then eventually, as trans nb and pansexual. She supported me and encouraged me all the way.

@@xxx-ie9ic yeah I wish she was cool with it, but she's better than the other friends at my school so that's a plus
One of my female friends has a boyfriend, and they’re so cute together. She gets so happy about him and just absolutely melts when he tells her he loves her and *squeals* they’re so cute! They’re a wonderful example of straights being okay.
It took my grandpa to stop being racist, when my dad brought home a black girlfriend. There good friends now, though she'd rock as a mom. But my mom is also amazing. Plus it took my Uncle to support LGBTQ+ by finding out his niece was a nephew all along.
Literally anything Jamie says in a lighthearted manner comes out adorable. He could be like, “The naked man yelled at me about him being a piece of cheese,” and I’d be like, “Awe, how cute.”

Like, if fruit-war-guy's parents had any observational skills, they would be able to tell the difference between blood and strawberries. So it is my hope that they pretended to believe him to spare her the embarrassment, but actually nobody got in trouble.

Then they bought a red couch

My parents are homophobic so God gave them two gay kids and a trans enby child too, so they didn't change and now their kids don't talk to them and they can't understand why 🤣 🤣🤣🤣

The last one is the embodiment of the "he's a little confused, but he's got the spirit"
One of the people in my D&D group came out as trans few months ago, and it still makes me smile and feel incredibly happy to think how well it went ☺️ Her sister helped her bake a cake in trans colors (the cutest thing ever!!) and she brought that as a way to tell us, everyone was cool with it and fully supported her, I saw how all the tension and worry faded away from her face and overall demeanor. We're still not very close with each other in the group and from what I know everyone else is cis and straight, so it was really nice to see that we have found these wonderful and kind people to play with. 💕
My grandfather is an 80 year old cishet Asian man who’s a church minister and he is fully supportive of the LGBTQIA+ community. He simply thinks that everyone deserves love. He “searched God” and decided that treating people with love and respect is simply God’s will. He’s just doing the right thing and respecting/supporting people for who they are (as everyone should!!).

I'm bi but positive representation like this makes me feel comfortable with liking men.
Wow this got a lot more popular than I was expecting, I just said this as a little ramble. I want to be clear the reason I said this is because I've heard a lot of "men suck" from some bi women and men being portrayed badly made me feel uncomfortable with my attraction for them. Seeing men being represented as nice people instead of these evil sexual predators makes me feel less bad for being attracted to them.

I remember in HS finding out my brother and grandma were gay was such a big deal and a dirty secret. My grandma didn't even acknowledge that she was gay till my mom bluntly asked how she and her partner (of 30+years) happened. Now when my cousin and niece came out I'm just like cool what's for dinner. Glad so much progress has been made.
My kid and his friend would get in a LOT MORE trouble if they had a fruit war on my white couch than if it was just an accidental bodily function...
yeah i would just say that we dropped the fruit on ourselves and tried to clean it up but slipped and fell and smushed it or something
But it would probably save a bit of the embarrassment for the girl
The dementia one hit me. My mum died due to Alzheimer's two years ago and once when I visited her in her care home I did get her usual question of 'who are you?' Which wasn't, by that time, too unusual, but after I told her she then replied 'but I thought I only had one son that was (name of my older brother - who never visited).' Then she sat up a bit more and said 'how could I forget having a second child? It bloody well hurt enough giving birth the first time.'
She also would chat and say 'I don't know where our husbands have got to' she remembered I'm gay but not that I was single, she thought my brother's wedding 10 years before was mine although I never found out who she thought I was married to.
💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜
My grandfather had Alzheimer’s too. He forgot things in perfect reverse chronological order. I am his youngest grandchild so he forgot me first, but he would always call me my older cousin’s name (we look somewhat alike) until he forgot her too. Then he forgot my mom and her older brother. And then he forgot his wife. He started referring to us as people from his high school. But he always remembered his older brother (the one person he has had his entire life) until the day he died. I wonder if that’s similar to what happened with you since your brother is older than you.
@@That_Woodchuck partly yes, her memory loss was very random at times. She would ask if I had spoken to my gran recently - she died 20 years ago so I just replied 'not recently, no' (tell the truth but stretch it) also she would ask my dad who he was and what gave him the right to sleep in the same bed as her. Sometimes she would revert to thinking she was still living where she grew up. Still refusing to believe anything was wrong with her and it was us who were forgetting things not her.
One of my grandmothers had a touch of dementia and I would stop by her room on my way home from high school. She couldn't remember who I was, exactly, but knew that she knew me and that I would bring her flowers, so she decided I was her younger sister.
The things I learned during that 6 months were amazing! I would never give up that chance to learn that my grandma, who had always seemed very stand-offish, hung out with bootleggers, was a "flapper" and lived a very "party girl" lifestyle for the sleepy Iowa town she grew up in. She had a grand time until she met my grandfather and they got married. She was then a teacher, and still had wonderful adventures and stories that I, as her younger sister, got to hear all about. We did so much giggling together and she loved that I was so "forward" as to wear "tight dungarees" (blue jeans that were comfortable, but not tight by modern standards).
At the 'strawberry war' post, I feel like the parents, or atleast the mum knew the truth, as someone who gets really bad periods, I think they'd notice the difference between blood and strawberries. But that's really sweet of the guy to do that, and I hope the parents went along with it, to save the girl embarrassment. And I hope the guy didnt get in too much trouble-

@@windysteam9284 thank you!
honestly I partially blame them anyway for buying a white couch. If you're playing with fire don't get surprised when you get burned and stuff... lol
Honestly, I don't think the girl should be ashamed. It's a bodily function she cannot control, we need to stop making periods something shameful. I wish the parents instead would've made no big deal out of it at all and the mother just give her some pads. I hate that women have to hide and be ashamed of their periods when it's not our choice. It's completely natural!

Claim your:
"I'm straight but I support LGBTQ"
I claim!!
I think I’m straight? I’ll like
Edit: that was a lie, I’m a biro ace
*I’m straight AND I support LGBTQ :)
@Annabeth Chase YES
I wish my mom would support me
When I told her I'm pan she said
That God doesn't like that so I should stop and start being straight
And she said I was just confused
Since I was only 12
My mom used to be very homophobic and transphobic due to her beliefs. One of my closest friend at the time came out as trans man and his parents beat the shit out of him and put him out of his house and I brang him home.
He explained his story to my very religious mom and she cried terribly. Since that day, I came out as pan and she absolutely changed her mind teaching my little brother that he will be as welcomed home bringing a girl as much as a boy or whoever he loves and that no matter if he uses other pronouns at some point, she’ll always love him as much.
The love people with dementia have for those who love and care for them is special. My grandma didn’t think she could have biological kids so she and my grandpa adopted two boys before my dad was born. She lost her eldest son to a tragic accident when he was 17 and her husband to a heart attack at age 53. She lived to be 100 years old with dementia for the last decade of her life and my uncle, her second adopted son, was her primary caregiver. He would come to her care home every day and give her medication, wash her clothes, and clean her tiny suite. And then they would just sit and she would hold his hand every day while they watched tv. My grandmother was tiny: not even five feet tall and less than 100lbs with auburn hair and blue eyes. My uncle is 6’4” and a very stout guy with an olive complexion and dark hair and eyes. They do not look like mother and son and never have. (I have a picture of them when he was a 10 month old baby and I swear he was already half her size.) But even when she couldn’t remember his name or how they were related she knew she loved him. And so they’d sit and hold hands.
This made me year up. Love is beautiful

the cishet husband in the last post is the epitome of "he a little confused but he got the spirit"
I found it so cute :)
Yess! It’s so cute how he sees something rainbow and immediately thinks of her
That last one is my husband too. I came out to him as bi right after we got married, and for the last fourteen years he points out everything that has a rainbow on it ever. I think it's adorable.
I am pansexual (or maybe more panromantic?), I find EVERYONE attractive and amazing. My boyfriend sometimes acts a bit more feminine. He's got lots of girly quirks, he's also super kind and gentle. Sometimes he does "feminine things" for show and to make me laugh, while some things are just natural to him. It's hard to explain what kind of "things" exactly, because I don't want to stereotype (and also it's not super prominent and straightforward)... But yeah, I think it's really sweet and it even though he's the only serious romantic partner I ever had, he makes me feel validated and more confident in my pansexuality.
My grandparents were the best straight couple. My grandmother worked as a nurse and my grandfather was retired. He got up 30 minutes before her and made her coffee. I asked him why when their coffee maker had a timer. He just smiled and said "coffee makers cant tell her how much I love her" my grandmother told me he had gotten up and made her coffee every morning for their 40 years of marriage.

As a straight person, I’d just like to say a lot of us generally do not care what your gender is onesoever. We try our best to not misgender people, but we’re just happy that you’re human. And that should be all that matters. It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, it doesn’t matter if you love someone you “shouldn’t”. Personally, what matters to me, is that at the end of the day I can sit down with you and pop a beer or two and say cheers.
I don’t speak for everyone though. If you have a different opinion, I don’t care. It’s your opinion. I’d just like to say this because I’ve had some trouble with LGBTQ+ people for being straight in the past, but I see they’re mostly all good people. So yeah. Have a good one.
Most teens that I meet aren’t homophobic but a lot of the adults in my life are. Some don’t talk about it a lot. But some I know are 100% homophobic and transphobic. Like my Bible teacher. She’s honestly so embarrassing. She ranted about trans rights for almost the entire period. Some of my classmates are homophobic too 😔 it’s sad to see
I actually take points off for human… but my base line is that if you are a living organism you deserve some deep respect, and to be allowed to do your own thing and live the best life you can without me interfering like a twat.
i mean there's assholes in every community,
lgbtqia+ people who hate on others for being straight/cis are just one of them
When I was in university I took a psychology course. We were learning about memory, and had to watch a video of this man who had no short term memory due to an accident. He couldn’t remember anything, but the one thing he did remember was his wife. Every time she walked into the room he would get up and cheer and rush over to kiss her and hug her. Even if she was out of the room for 5 seconds. It was the sweetest thing. It’s the only thing I remember from that class and I’m okay with that

As a straight cis fem in a relationship with a straight cis male, I can assure you that we are both the human and so are you.
Edit below:
(Although, I'm always confused whether I (Ace) actually count as actually straight. I guess it would be more honest to say I pass as straight...? Idk, I've gotten very mixed reactions on that front, but my boyfriend assures me that no matter what group I fall under, I'm human and deserve love like other humans. And I'm the human he cant help but love.)
The man with a white couch probably doesn't get in to much trouble. if he was my son i would be super proud, no way mom didn't know what really happened, amazing family for going along with it.

Without much thought we put it in the laundry pile...and my mom found it later on the floor by my dog's pile of tarnished toys with a hole in it where the peanut butter was. After a brief moment of fear for our dog, we had a hearty laugh about it bc "oh kara what a silly dog you are, oh well"...cut ahead to late summer 2017 when he moved in with me and he found it folded on my dresser and went "wait is that my shirt?

You're absolutely right about people being able to grow more accepting. Coming from a person who used to watch ben shapiro and grew up in a Christian household hearing things about homosexuality being bad, it took me a couple of years to form my own opinions about things like that. Now I'm the only person in my house with different views (my parents wouldn't kick us out and are willing to accept a homosexual kid, but have made their views on the matter pretty apparent). Also turns out I'm asexual so I'm just happy I became a more accepting person before finding that out.
Aaa me too! All of that! Even the ace part :)
Very brave of you to be the one person in the family to see things different. And your reward is “be a good Christian and don’t have sex...wait not like that”
Same, except I didn't watch ben shapiro. Even then I couldn't stand him, mostly his voice back then but now it's just everything about him.
Aaaaaa same here! Although now it's even at the point where I'm nervous to come out to them as ace for fear that they'll just invalidate me, claiming it's "just a phase" or that I'm "too young to know yet." Honestly really annoying :/
My dad had me watching Shapiro and believing the Earth was flat for a good while. Now I'm trans, pan, and much happier with my life now that I've seen both sides and know which one I want to support.
Sadly he's a trump supporter and although he's accepting of trans people and stuff, like super good and chill, he's the type who thinks the media lies about everything and that trans people never had less rights than other people, etc., etc.. He's not as bad as he used to be, but talking on politics EVER ends up with us shouting at each other, and it's one of his favorite things to watch or talk about. We mostly avoid it and I just seethe from a distance cause he yells loud and is a bit of a pompous ass, his words not mine.
Sadly my mom isn't "unaccepting" but she thinks it's a phase and is also really racist, not that she thinks people are inferior, I don't think, but believes stereotypes and used to tell me when I was young that I wasn't allowed to date black people.
Fuck you, Mom, I'll date whoever I want. And she knows she can't control that, although I think she cares less after finding out I plan to sterilize myself really really young. (I am tokophobic and an AFAB guy so like, the idea of intimacy is a double impossibility as of now sadly. One, because dysphoria is most prominent for me in my lower bits, two, I do not have any surgery or hormones, despite being out for 5, almost 6 fucking years, (but hey, I should be happy I'm getting my name changed when I'm 18, cause my mom's accepting more, at least accepting that I won't make it to twenty at this rate-) and also because any miniscule risk of pregnancy sets off my OCD into super rumination and I end up dying inside. Plus I'm never going to a gyno if I can avoid it because I'd sooner jump out a 12th story window-)
So yeahhhhhhh, that's uncomfortable.
Somehow I turned out not transphobic despite my TERF mom, and not racist/homophobic/xenophobic despite everything around me, even my own damn peers. (I cannot articulate the variety of slurs I was called in two years of middle school before I ended up needing to home school due to trauma. More or less self teaching tbh.)
Weirdly enough, gay people are seen as more okay by the people where I live than like different races, and yes, there are racist POC here too. I went to a majority black school at one point, and although the behavior issues were more related to the poor area than race statistics, the amount of times I was judged or called names or singled out for being a pale little quartz pebble of a kid was kinda gross. Not comparable to like other stuff, just want to say that I live in the South, and it's just a generally gross area, regardless of race or background or sexuality or gender identity. I was called "she-man", and I apologize for that usage, I am merely trying to explain, by a "friend" on the bus once because I had a half-shaved look. I was really proud, but it took a hit to my confidence big time, being insulted by someone I considered a friend. That person also told me I had dandruff, and I got super self conscious about my hair cause I have an itchy scalp, especially around that time, (it's hardly any less itchy than any other scalp now, but I had dehydration issues I think, mostly due to the fucked rules of public school) and I became VERY self aware of my scalp and hair for years.
Fucked up place. They're also trying to ban abortions unless the "mother's" physical health/life is in danger, and like, no exceptions for rape or incest or anything. Or like. Mental health of someone who has said since they were like 7 that they'd rather jump into a volcano than give birth, so like, fuck that shit makes me wanna fucking deck people and I'm really non-confrontational.
