LGBTQ+

I thought my state was doing pretty damn good with regarding LGBT but the Seattle Tacoma area is gay af, and openly so.

Like, in my state, there are definitely LGBT but it mostly feels like the only time to be open about it is pride month.

Feels like pride all day every day out here in Washington

hi… i’m Cyara a trans refugee in South Sudan. i’ve been really sick suffering from Malaria,typhoid and ulcers. Also within the same time, I got a very painful big cut on my finger. I had to go to a clinic and thanks to a few kind strangers who donated, i was able to cover the bill. But it left us with nothing.

it’s just me and my 3 trans sisters. we’ve been through hell here and now the government is evicting us. one of my sisters has broken completely under the pressure. she’s not okay. none of us are.

we’ve only raised $121 out of $720 for emergency shelter. i know the world is exhausted. i see what’s happening in Texas, in New Mexico, everywhere and my heart breaks. but i still need help too. just one last chance to survive.

please don’t scroll past this. please help us. share if you can. donate if you’re able. message me if you want to hear our story ’m open to a voice or video call. we’re real people who are really scared. we just want safety : (( Please also the support link is on my profile

It only works if you say the O wrong! Neither "woman" nor "women" are said like that.

Oh, and all the other stuff about implying any strong & healthy friendship must have some underlying homoeroticism bullshit.

I'm afab and if the surgery was possible for turning what I have into a fully functioning dick, I would have done it by now.

Basically I'm comfortable with my perceived gender, I just wish how I see myself mentally when I think about sex, matched up to what I've got in my pants. I've felt this way since I was a young teenager too, so it's not a phase or a fetish, it's how I've wanted to present sexually for most of my life.

Does this disconnect I'm talking about just fall under the non-binary trans umbrella? Or is it a seperate thing?

Are there any other people here who feel this way?

(Phalloplasty does not appeal to me. The surgery is brutal, it doesn't look right (to me) when it heals, it isn't functional how I would want it to be, and it isn't sensitive like a dick.)
