People try to judge others and force their beliefs on others when they are insecure about themselves. We’re here to help each other not promote ourselves or beliefs. That’s how we succeed together.
you’re right, ty for this
while im cishet, im completely one hundred percent supportive of the lgbt community. i know that doesnt help but just know that for every one ignorant intolerable person, there are hundreds of caring and supportive people here too. im terribly sorry you had to suffer from someone being so mean. as a christian myself i think it's the most ridiculous thing ever when people use the bible etc as an excuse to be hateful. it's the stupidest thing ive ever heard. people may have their own beliefs and opinions but that does NOT give them a reason to be hateful towards another person for their existence, choices, or beliefs. on behalf of whoever was unkind with their words towards you, im deeply sorry. :(
jesus christ. what is wrong with people? bruh i’m so tired of this shit lmao. just let people live how they want. it doesn’t affect anyone but them at the end of the day.. so why do bystanders care so much? i, myself, am apart of the lgbtq+ and get so pissed when people can’t just have an open mind. i realize some people just won’t change, but atleast try to understand people. even if they are different from you. and just because someone is from a different generation where people aren’t as accepting (boomers), isn’t an excuse. they’ve had plenty of time to come to their senses and become open minded. they just don’t want to. stubborn, ignorant, and close minded. seriously, what a terrible life it must be to live with so much hate in your heart that you can’t accept others for who they are. disgusting.
People don’t have to accept anything they don’t want to. Period.
@holley lmao. okay. just go ahead and don’t accept human rights
@holley holley you just blew off they’re whole point with something completely unrelated
@saltedcrabs but yeah @ make a change I agree, especially with ( TW for murder ) so many hate crimes happening atm it’s crazy
I am not lgbt but have friends that are. Please don't let those types of people get to you. I know its hard. There are also many people out there who are by your side 100% some people just have nothing better to do than make others miserable.
I'm bisexual and I'm proud ???
I know it might hurt your feelings but just accept their beliefs and move on. Don’t fixate on something they said. I might not agree with the way you live your life, but you’re a human and so am I and i think that human to human that we should respect each other’s beliefs no matter what.
Hey I get what you’re trying to say and thank you so much for responding, But transphobia- actually lgbt+ phobia in general is straight up hate speech which is why I just can’t accept it. Especially as a member myself and seeing how horribly it effects people especially trans-lives first hand even if it’s just something said on the internet
@saltedcrabs Saying Christians are terrible people is also hate speech too. Calling black people the n word is too. Calling white people white trash also! There’s hate speech everywhere! You are who you are but just know that not everyone is going to approve of your lifestyle. That’s all.
@holley I don’t think you’re fully grasping what I’m trying to say, calling someone white trash or saying that christians are bad even though it’s mean Definetely isn’t on the same level as being lgbt+ phobic, because of all the horrible history behind it that has happened and continued to happen to this day.
@holley I don’t mean to bring topics like this up so TW in advance but christians and white people aren’t slaughtered or harassed on the daily for just being those things which makes them a bad thing to compare
@saltedcrabs continues * oop ?
I’m new to the site but not at all new to OCD. I’ve seen a lot of posts about “hocd” and just generally posts about people thinking they’re gay or whatever. I’m a lesbian and honestly it’s a really confusing and awful thing to see. I’m sure the posts aren’t literally homophobic but like, it’s shitty to go on an app to help your mental illness and then to see people portray homosexuality as an illness!!!! I know that there could be straight people who have these intrusive thoughts but HEY!! I had those intrusive thoughts too and I ended up being gay. I thought it was all anxiety but it wasn’t! It just feels so weird to see this stuff. If I saw those posts as a teenager, I might still be closeted and self-hating. Anyone else have thoughts?
Sometimes this app feels slightly unwelcoming towards lgbt. Not in the sense where I don’t feel like I can say anything, but in the sense where I feel like people forget we exist on here. I understand that people struggle with religious ocd, but sometimes i feel like people forget that LGBT people struggle with ocd too, and it does not help when you see a bunch of people talking about going to hell for being gay on this app. Again, I understand having religious OCD and these fears and I’m not trying to censor anyone, but it just makes me feel like there’s no place for me sometimes on here, and it’s really hurtful to see these type of things.
When I was really struggling with OCD at the beginning of it, I used to go on an anonymous website and just vent. Just vent it all out every time a scary event happened. Some people would say the most horrible things. Like truly sick. Some people were supportive and that’s what I was seeking, but I just remember how disturbing it was to be exposed to people who were the opposite. It only happened about twice before I stopped doing that bc I realized how weird people were. I was around 16/17 so idk I was naive and dumb in many ways, but venting on that site gave me an outlet for all the stress I was going through mentally. But some people just . I can’t believe what they would say in response. I’m so traumatized I wanna throw up. Idk why but I assumed that I would come across good people on that site. Like I was just too trusting and naive and didn’t know how to protect myself nor manage the risk of talking to people who are truly sick in the mf head. I wanna kms just from how sick it makes me to remember .
