LGBTQA+ Advice & Discussion Group
This is a thread dedicated to the discussion of LGBTQA+ topics such as:
- Coming Out
- Relationships
- Transitions
- Questioning
- Discrimination/Bullying
- General advice / anything else related
This group’s purpose is for questions, advice/support, informative posts, and general camaraderie among the LGBTQA+ members of this forum. Through this thread we hope to share stories/experiences/opinions, inform the public/ourselves, and overall support and guide each other no matter what we are going through.
Note: Even though the title says "LGBTQA+, any other orientations such as Pan, or Demi are allowed here and we fully support discussion of these orientations.
Group Rules:
- THIS IS NOT A DEBATE TOPIC - We may from time to time discuss some news topics from within the LGBTQA+ community (think queerty/out/advocate), but this topic’s primary purpose is not for debate. If you would like to expand on a topic more or have a major (national/world) news topic to discuss more in depth, please make a thread solely for that topic. You can post recent developments here such as local laws, incidents, interesting/positive stories, videos, etc.
- JOIN UP - If you want to post more than once in this topic, please request to be added to the membership list. From time to time we may send out PM's, organize games/discussions, and take part in a skype chat. You are not required to do any of this but the options are there! To join the group: Please send a PM to SR or mention you would like membership in your first post here. The member list will be kept here: http://bit.ly/1CufVxe
- NO H8 - We welcome LGBTQA+ individuals as well as allies of the LGBTQA+ community in our discussions here, but please do not post any material that is negative toward another member or not supportive in nature. Any type of hateful messages or bullying toward a member will be handled posthaste. We ask members to deal with these kinds of people by reporting them to me or another moderator whether it be a post or PM instead of responding to them.
- STAY CLASSY - Please keep all posts “classy” and appropriate. Follow the forum rules. If you have any questions on if something is appropriate for the thread or not, please contact SR (me).
- HEY! LISTEN! - No shaming for what someone identifies as here. We ask that all participants in this thread listen first and be understanding/receptive no matter what someone is going through or decides to call themselves.
- BE INFORMED - If you are uninformed about an issue but have an opinion, it's best to do some research first before posting. What you are posting could be considered offensive to some people.
Keep in mind that this thread can only get better with participation, so we gladly welcome any suggestions or changes you might have in mind.
Thank you and enjoy!
