Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven
We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.
Community Rules:
~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Research shows that people afraid of being perceived as being gay are morons
As with 99% of idiotic things men do, this is because it has been ingrained in them that acting "feminine" (as they perceive it) will lower that sexual status with women. Sometimes this is accurate, and their belief is reinforced.
The internalized pressures of putting on masks for society helps no one.
If you are afraid that being seen carrying a bag might make you gay, carry an imprinted Richard satchel instead.
You know, you are allowed to talk about dick satchels on the internet.
I'm afraid that everyone on the Internet will think I'm gay if I do.
