Lesbian here. Recently moved to Idaho Falls from the Central Coast of California. Probably wasn't a good choice, because this area is extremely religious (Mormon churches everywhere) but cost of living is cheap and Covid-19 forced me to take a different life path than I was planning. The people here have actually been nice (got a collapsed lung a few weeks ago and made friends with one of the ER nurses), but I don't know how they'd react if I was open about my sexuality. I've tended to keep it to myself most of my life. Just a personal preference though, and I've never been in any serious relationships. I might never, because I also have a sound-processing disorder called Misophonia that makes it very hard for me to live with anyone but myself. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it's nice. Everything has its ups and downs.

I'm transgender and my partner and I are from SoFlo!

Asexual/panromantic nonbinary here.

Out in the first, very closeted in the second and third. (Tired of explaining panromantic to people who don't want to understand.) I live in a very religious, very white small town in backwater Pennsylvania, USA so being out as anything but cis would be very dangerous for me. I'm one of the nb people who want the parts removed and just to be completely neutral, down to different name.

Thank you for sharing. I'd like to talk to more LGBT people from small towns. I'm from the suburbs - I grew up in Coral Springs, a city that was marketed as "the city of future" back in the 70s. My experiences with transphobia and homophobia are probably completely different than yours. I feel like networking with other LGBT people online is the first step towards collective action and making the places where we live safer for people like us.

You're right, and my growing up experience was very different than yours in regard to this. I was a baby of the late 80's, grew up in the 90's and spent most of my young adult life thinking I was broken beyond repair when others seemed to be hyper focused on sex. Then add in the sense of something not quite being... matching?

I didn't even know what transgender truly, honestly meant until I was in my early 20's. And that was only thanks in part to social media.

Woop Woop!

I love to get to know fellow religious people! I'm gay and trans, and I live in a very secular country and is the only openly religious person in my family and so, meeting fellow LGBTQ's is easy but being religious is ridiculed a lot.

im a gay trans guy (well... slightly to the left of guy LOL but im a he/him anyways so it doesn't rlly matter) :- )

i like biology (mostly zoology but plants/fungi etc are neat too!) and i've been getting rlly into sustainable living and stuff.... hoping to start growing my own herbs and making my own clothes soon! :- P

i'm a they/them ace lesbian, but i'm still trying to figure things out! I live in Pennsylvania, pa, but I'm near a city so I'm not super worried about coming out. the only thing is i want to wait until i have a more solid understanding of myself

She/her and identify as asexual, however I am still figuring out my romantic orientation (all I really know is that I am not aromantic). I'm personally okay with questioning my orientation indefinitely though, if that's the way it's going to be.

waves Hello! ~ ❤️ I'm Moonie and I just go by queer now. I use they/them pronouns and am gender neutral. As for my sexuality it doesn't really matter since that's also pretty fluid.

I'm Pan/Poly and always down to talk to new friends! <3

I am afab gender neutral, they/them, in relationship with a lovely lady for 8 years.

Hello, cis-gender female asexual demi-homo-romantic from Texas, USA here! I'm also non-religious but currently leaning towards wicca/pagan believes, still kind of trying to figure out what I believe outside of being agnostic.

Definitely down to find some more LGBT+ Friends, we've got to stick together during these wild times!

lesbian and non-religious, hi everybody o/

oh my god how have I not posted here yet?? hello from yet another chaotic subeta bisexual (she/her)

Asexual, pan-romantic and nonbinary (recently figured out what I am is called nonbinary, so I like to try out they/them pronouns online :) ). Amazing to see so many people with the same orientations!

raises hand HI my name's bruno, i'm a gay trans guy :D always happy to speak to fellow lgbt people!

Hello! I am a lesbian who is also from Canada! Pronouns are she/her but I do not really care so much what pronouns people use for me once I'm introduced! I do care very much if they're assumed, however. I grew up in a very Christian town in Manitoba but no longer associate myself with that religion (or town). I consider myself an agnostic witch with a love for science.

I've been with my wife for 10 years (married for 2) and for the past year we have been trying to have a baby! It's incredibly difficult in Canada to have a pregnancy as a same-sex couple through fertility clinics and if anyone has any questions about the process, I am completely open to talk about it! We want to be able to help others as there are not enough resources out there.

I don't accept random friend requests so please communicate with me and form a connection before sending one! c:

I'm a lesbian.
