I'm asexual, and I didn't even know that asexuality was a thing until my first year of uni. Up until that point, I was so uncomfortable in my own skin. I didn't know why I felt the way I did. Western society as a whole is so weirdly focused on sexuality and sex that when you don't feel sexual attraction and you don't know why, it made me feel like there was something wrong with me. Like I was broken. Figuring out my label helped me settle into my own skin and realize there's NOTHING wrong with me. I'm just me đ

As a lgbtq+ brown person, the reason my country is as homophobic as it is, is in large part due to colonization (in my case, specifically the british) and its so hurtful to not be accepted by my culture and have westerners call it backwards even though they forced Christian 'values' on us in the first place.
Love you Jessicaâ¤

Before I even identified as trans masc and still thought I was a lesbian I went on a bus with the type of boys that thought the f slur was a haha funny word to call each other. I made the mistake of mentioning my sexuality and they started asking me if Iâd snog everyone in the bus, I was eleven. So yeah people in the community still have it hard.

I'm a 31 year old lesbian from the United States. When I was 22 I was sexually assaulted by a man I knew and became pregnant. I made the decision to terminate. Now I am happily married to my gorgeous wife and we both want children. She has health issues, so I am more than likely going to have to be the one to carry when that time comes. The problem is, I now have PTSD over pregnancy. I don't know how to move past this, even though I know that this time it would be a choice I get to make with my wife who I love and trust, any advice? I'm also not finding much support in the way of PTSD trauma therapy BECAUSE I am gay.

CisHet people: LGBT people have equal rights now, stop complaining.
Me: My gender still isn't legally recognised despite living in the UK and it being 2021 and I have wait 2-3 years just to to talk to professional about transitioning let alone the 3-ish years of waiting lists and gate keeping before surgery

One of the hardest things about being asexual and aromantic (in my experience) is that most people, even within the lgbtq+ community, don't know what it is. I don't want to be in the closet, but it's so exhausting explaining it every time I come out to a new person--and then some of them ask very intrusive questions. It can be very isolating and dehumanizing.

Hi Jessica! idk if you will read this, but since the LGBTQ+ program at my school was age restricted for only 17 year olds and above, and last month I was diagnosed with AD/HD and misophonia and I was told by my parents to not tell people about my neurodivergency, your channel has really helped me get through this tough time where I don't really know what to do anymore, what I am anymore. Your channel let's me still get my LGBTQ+ and disabled content thats engaging, and makes me feel like I fit in somewhere. I can't thank you enough. :)

I've been suicidal since I was like 8. My mom saw me kiss a girl and told me she'd rather have a dead daughter than a lesbian one. I'm 26, I've never kissed anyone ever again and ever so often I toy with the idea of making my mother happy and just giving up. I don't think I'll ever emotionally recover from this lmao Idk the trauma of growing up gay, knowing your family hates you and wants you dead yet still being forced to live with them bc life, being bullied in school, it's still there and it still hurts.

At the Walmart I was bullied just yesterday. A very posh woman trapped my chair into a gaggle of shoppers. I asked her to move she refused. A man turned around saw what she was doing and kindly said he would move and helped me. Then they all-the gaggle-told her what they thought of her and how she had assaulted me by pinning me against the meat counter. She then chased me down and was apologizing loudly as the store glared her down. I was crying and told her fine. Kept going. I am one of those who a. Doesnât look my age and b. Has unseen disabilities. Heart, glaucoma, blood pressure, severe arthritis, and more including Meniers-sp-Vertigo...not asking for sympathy just sharing the latest of my experience. At least they didnât tell me I look good. :_JessicaRainbowH:
