Im straight and in my country, people are really judgemental and the society makes every lgbtq+ issues a big deal (like come on, people). Anyway, people (all gender) here don't usually kiss (intensely) in public but when I see one, i feel really proud of them. Part of me feels shy though, because i know myself that people around me will judge them...... reply

my first coming out was at 5 (i just told my mom at that time) , but the "official" one, the one that made me accept myself was around 15, i told my mom for the second time i had a girl i liked. She accepted it pretty nicely and comforted me when i got rejected... it seemed weird to me when i was young because i come from a very homophobic country...... reply
I'm lesbian and i like it a lot! I think that some are just fluffy stories really shoujo-like but with a same sex couple, some show the issue of not being accepted, coming out, being bullied, being toyed with, being harshly rejected because of your feelings,loving a person who'll never love back... like, all the bad moments we have to go through as...... reply
Nope, it does not affect my identity in any way but it's brutal that reality does not accept LGBT like in BL and other, alike manga( atleast here （￣へ￣）). I enjoy reading BL as a hobby and makes me think just maybe I will be accepted by my loved ones and have my life story. reply
I tried to read BL and in general, I'm just not interested at all. The best BL was honestly very good, with a real story etc but I didn't got obsessed with it like I do with yuri.
But I have to admit I kind of hate BL because of how unrealistic it is and how fujoshis and fudanshis get too crazy about it, shipping people irl and stuff. I think that ...... 1 reply
I feel like I'm one of very few that reads BL for the plot. I'm a huge lesbian and I would definitely read more GL if it had better storylines, plot structure, character development, etc. Unfortunately good GL is really hard to find because its either straight up porn, really poorly drawn/written, or left unfinished. (The few that aren't those thin...... 3 reply
Until my late teens, I always have had crushes on boys. But sometimes I would have dreams I didn’t understand myself, about strong and strange connexion with girls, almost all the way from elementary school – I think I was 7 the first time. It disturbed me quite a lot, making me feel uneasy and insecure. I knew something was off, although I was...... reply
Bisexual. I started reading BL when I was pretty young (14), but I personally don't think it has effected my sexual identity in any way. Other things helped me realize what my identity is. I also think I have a really healthy relationship with BL since I have a very clear distinction of reality and fiction and I've had a completely normal romantic ...... 2 reply
Genderfluid person, right here. For me, I confess that I would never have considered my own personal thoughts on this before I saw that men could be feminized and women could be masculine on the inside, or women could be attracted to men who love men. Things like Junjou Romantica and Super Lovers (later ) gave me a sort of 'safe zone ' to just ...... reply
