LGBTQIA+ |OT| Our Membership is Throbbing

Welcome to a new uncharted territory where as part of the agenda, it is our duty once again to spread the agenda™! Everyone and anyone is welcome in this thread. Please feel free and safe to be open about who you are. There are no chains, no limits, no boundaries, be yourself!

We are (or will be - for the time being) a diverse and large group of individuals from all walks of life. We must learn to respect and love (or at least pretend to) one another to support ourselves during times of hardship and personal life struggles.

This thread is open to anyone regardless of gender, race, and or sexual orientation. Everyone is welcome! Newcomers, Lurkers, and Veterans, feel free to tell us a bit about yourself by using the IceBreaker Questionnaire (IBQ)™ :

The IBQ™

- Your gender?
- Your sexual orientation?
- Where are you from?
- Where do you live?
- How old are you?
- Favorite type of music?
- Profession or career interest?
- Favorite video game(s)?
- What are your hobbies (other than gaming)?

You don’t have to answer every question but a simple introduction is mandatory! (Not really). Feel free to answer any questions you feel comfortable answering. Or don’t answer any questions in the ICB at all, and simply jump into the discussion.

So may be wondering what the hell is going on with the acronym? Well, allow me to explain *takes off glasses* We realize that human sexuality spreads across a broad spectrum where there are different variations and deviations. That is to say, that there are various sexualities and therefore, many terms that many people feel comfortable identifying with. For example, someone might identify him/herself as Pansexual, someone else might identify as a Pomosexual. There are many different terms that are constantly being created, and that is okay. We are constantly creating new terms to describe something new, or simply because we might feel comfortable identifying under a certain label (because identifying as gay is too mainstream yo!). Henceforth, the acronym stands for the following:

L - Lesbian
G - Gay
B - Bisexual
T - Transgender/Transsexual
Q - Queer/Questioning
I - Intersex
A - Asexual

+ - Any other terms that describe a certain type of sexual orientation.

The rules:

Above anything else we must respect one another. We must be supportive of one another and encourage a safe space for our fellow brethrens. Whenever an argument comes up, let’s try to keep it chill. It’s okay to disagree sometimes but let’s try to keep it civil.

In addition let’s try to keep gif and pictures at SFW level. We should do our best to keep the lewdness at acceptable levels. We pretty much have to do our part and take care of this thread.

Anyone can post in here. No topic has to be necessarily LGBT related. We can talk about various things in here, from music, vidya games of course, fashion, life drama, and interesting philosophical topics. If you ever need advice or to vent out, you’re in the right place! Actually, some of us here give terrible advice (like myself) so do so at your own caution.
