I've noticed subetas NPCs are becoming really diverse which is super great and was wondering if it was at all possible to have some sexuality stickers or flags? I get it if subeta can't for PC reasons but personally I don't see it being that big a problem?

Also, if there is already something like this out there already please tell me! I'd love an asexuality sticker or something similar c:

Here is a list of various sexualities. There are a fair few, so one of my concerns is that someone might get upset if their sexuality is left out (which I wouldn't want at all).

Please be kind with your comments, if you simply don't like the idea don't comment. If you have a valid reason as to why it's a bad idea or if there are any problems with what I've suggested please do explain carefully.

[edit]

Some users have made valid points against stickers which are that they can be abused and used to harass other users. Others have also pointed out that it kind of defeats the purpose of having pride in one's sexuality by collecting stickers.

So some users have suggested badges that can be stuck on your avatar or flags that can be held or as background items. Some have suggested backgrounds and others suggested shirts in each flags colours.

There has also being comments on not needing an ally pride item but one user suggested perhaps a shirt that reads "I support you" which can not only be used in support of lgbta+ but also in support of other events or agenders etc.

If you have any other suggestions or ideas please feel free to comment

We already have some plushies the representing many kinds of relationships so I want to see more items like that.. I would be so happy to see a "I am gay" etc. stickers.

I, too, would love to show off my ace pride with a sticker or flag of some sort (although tbh I don't think we need an "ally" pride flag...) Also of note is that some of the middle two rows are genders, not sexualities.

EDIT: The above comment about "ally pride" flags is directed at OP's link, which has an icon for one (second row, all the way on the right). I don't think that people should get to be part of the [insert your preferred acronym here] community/pride groups just for being decent human beings. I think my preferred items would be either flags or T-shirts in the pride colors.

I can see this starting out well... and then going sideways. Really fast.

I also have a quick question for ... why would this concept not need an "ally" pride flag? 0-0

[EDIT] Wait hmm. Maybe it wouldn't explode? If they're items rather than titles or some such.

Support, I think they would be neat as wearable flags, honestly. I would definitely pick up some extras to put in pet treasures.

i love this idea!

personally i'd see these stickers as something similar to pride flags. people who are allies are, simply put, trying not to be jerks. i believe allies are great, but there is no reason to be proud of being a decent human being P: (idk if agrees with this, that's just my two cents)

I'm all for diverse stickers for sexual orientations, including heterosexuality, but please, no ally sticker.

Allies don't deserve recognition for just being decent human beings. Like, be tolerant of others is just something normal to me.

That, and the fact that "allies" tried to shoehorn themselves in the LGBTA+ acronym by saying the A was for allies. No. Sorry. It's not.

Well, we do have these:

[item=ohno! road sign]

So why not more? I'd like some ace, bi, pan, poly etc pride stuff to go with all of the gay pride stuff we have already.

I would be cool with stickers.

Flags seems so... weird? Personally I have no desire to have a flag for asexual on my HA, that's who I am and I wouldn't use a flag to show it off because who cares about my lack of sexuality? Personal taste I suppose. (and yes i'm commenting while I disagree with something)

Agree with on the ally sticker, being a respectful to others doesn't need a sticker.

There's no need for an "ally pride" anything, there could be an Ally item, but pride should be reserved for the sexualities that have a history of being oppressed/discriminated against.

I'm between discussing a couple of points and BACKING AWAY QUICKLY! Backing away is winning, hands down!!! Thanks for answering my question.

Stickers would seem odd to me. For wanting to show pride in your own sexuality, why do it in an item that was made to stick to someone else? Seems like you could find someone who is less accepting and stick a bunch of them to that user. I wouldn't mind any other item, stickers just make me a bit hesitant.

I don't have any particular objection to stickers, but they aren't really on show like a wearable. I don't know about anyone else but I never look at anyone else's sticker collection, hell I don't even look at mine xD

Maybe some new wearables might be a better way for people to show off their particular sexuality?

(someone needs to explain to me what an ally is..I'm old and kinda out of the loop)

Sometimes the logic behind some of the pro-rights movements baffles me. If too many people aren't decent human beings, if people are still looked down on just for being in favour of other people's rights, then we ought to celebrate that there ARE some decent human beings, and continue to make strides toward equality. Obviously I think an ALL-INCLUSIVE set of stickers/flags whatever is a good idea. People ought to be able to display what they have pride in so long as it doesn't interfere with the reasonable prides others might have. I don't see why this couldn't be done within the scope of the already established rules. what pointed out is a thing that might happen, but I'd venture to say that these are people who would otherwise go out of there way in some other fashion to be awful hurtful people and as such they should be dealt with according to the rules.

There are many people on the forums that say their sexuality. sending them a single sticker (which cannot be removed) saying something like "proud to be" any other sexuality would not be against the rules. sure it's a dick move, but I don't see how the rules can protect sending one sticker. there shouldn't be custom rules around a set of stickers. Stickers aren't a guaranteed right. sometime I'd like subeta to look at things that make this a game instead of making some political statements, even if they are statements I agree with. I don't want users who don't agree to be alienated. I want everyone to have fun.

I support having more diverse pride items, but I don't know if I like the idea of stickers.

Stickers are a collection that is encouraged to try and collect them all, so lots of people will end up having all the pride stickers in their collection and that seems to work against the point of having items to show off pride in your own sexuality. I'm proud to be ace, but the message gets a bit watered down when I'd also have bi/poly/etc. stickers in the same collection since I want that achievement.

also this:

For wanting to show pride in your own sexuality, why do it in an item that was made to stick to someone else?

So, supporting the idea of having more variety of pride items, but not keen on them being in sticker form. Wearables would probably be ideal for the purpose of showing off pride with HA's being so visible, but other kinds of items would be nice too since pride items would probably be a popular thing for pet TCs.

Dude, I'm sticking you with an asexual sticker if you're sticking me with one.

FOUND MY ASEXUAL STICKER PARTNER. BEST DAY EVER, 10/10.

I like the idea of stickers! We have a few pride ones already so there's a precedent. A couple of the flags listed made me laugh though - like the bear one (where's the twink flag, where's the otter flag etc etc) - and they'd have to be whittled down. I like the idea of incorporating the colours into them though

I don't really mind this either way. I like the idea of stickers, because they're cute but I understand that it makes a little less sense because they're meant to be given to other people.

I can guarantee that I would definitely not use a wearable flag or something though.

Showing each other support while saving 10k not using the hustler = win.

And then someone will come around and stick us with another sexuality sticker.

Just realized I'm only cool with an Ally sticker if we also get a reverse of it: "You are a total prick sticker" that has a cactus as image and a description like: "How prickly of you, not supporting other people"
