Share Your Opinion About The LGBTQ+ Community (Closed)

As long as you aren't hurting anyone why should I care?

people should be able to be whoever they want to be and love whoever they want to love. I don't know why this is so hard for other people to understand. if they want to be a boy or a girl or nonbinary or whatever they should be aloud to be that because that is who they are. if they want to love the same gender or both male and female or all genders or even no genders they should be allowed to do that because love is love. people should respect who they love and who they are without question. even if you don't support it you should still be respectful. this is not a phase they are going to outgrow, this is so they are and everyone should respect that even if you don't agree. if anyone has bad parents or family members that don't accept you just know that I and other people on BP accept you and that you are amazing and should be afraid to be yourself. just keep being you and have a wonderful day

Anybody who puts that much energy into hate for individuals who are just living their lives, loving who they love, embracing who they are, are you okay?

I’m Muslim, and a lot of people think we are anti LGBTQ, but honestly, most of us dont care. I mean, we aren’t as good at being open to gays as Christians, but its not like we aren’t the only religion who has homophobes right? I support the LGBTQ community, and believe that people should be allowed to get married to whoever they want in America.

Live and let live.

I'm a proud lesbian proud of my community :)

as long as there's no kid or animal abuse, your personal life is absolutely not my business

I do not agree with many parts of the community, but I keep those beliefs to myself. I support anyone part of the community though because I think that whatever I think should have no impact on their lives. They can do whatever they like and it's not my business at all. I'm sorry if this offends anyone but I was asked to give my honest opinion.

I'm fine with LGBTQ. Whatever you feel is fine. It doesn't really matter to me.

Be who you really are, love who you love. LGBTQ+ ppl are still people who want to be themselves. I support LGBTQ+

Everyone is a hoooooman. Love is what keeps us together and warm and fuzzy and happy. I'm an insignificant person and therefore my opinions are not forced upon anyone. It's just fine to be who you are, love whomever you want and embrace your sexuality. Gender is not sexuality. Live and let live and love.

I have been a proud supporter and voice against hatred since it was LGB! I have one lesbian daughter and one hetero daughter and they both have my support 100%. Love really is love.
I am also part of a huge, worldwide community of parents of faith with lgbtq children. Not all Christians are arseholes who misinterpreted the Bible. Be true to you.

Support them, you haters! LGBTQ+ are awesome! What did they do to you to make you hate them?

I love you guys. Y'all are awesome. 🏳️‍🌈
Don't forget to love eachother

I may not be part of the LGBTQ+ community, but that doesn't mean I think it's not right. I believe LOVE IS LOVE. People in my class are always making jokes or rude comments to the kids part of the LGBTQ+ community, like acting grossed out as if they aren't humans or something. They might say "Ewww" to the kids in our class that are different from them, but those bullies are the real disgusting people.

I am a pansexual male (yes, contrary to popular belief, we really do exist), but I don't really feel I am part of the LGBTQ+ community, or any other community for that matter and I certainly don't follow any particular lifestyle. I am an extremely shy and introverted person and hate drawing any kind of attention to myself so I rarely do or show anything that reveals my sexuality to anyone unless I have got to know them very well. But I am a passionate supporter of LGBTQ+ rights and causes and will do whatever I possibly can to support them, albeit anonymously. I have always been been open about my sexuality and I never really "came out", because I was never really "in the closet." This has often caused me a lot of pain and many times I have wished I was straight and that I could control who I was attracted to or fell in love with, but I am who I am and I can't change that part of me. I just hope that one day we can have a society in which a person's gender, sex or sexuality is no more important than their eye colour or shoe size and in which we can stop defining people by their gender, sex or sexuality and just accept each other as fellow human beings.

I do not know if I belong to this community yet or not. But for the haters out there, If you don't like this community, cry a river, build a bridge, AND GET FRICKIN OVER IT. These are people just like us. Face it, it's the truth.

I have a story of my closest childhood friend. We met every other day, and we walked and talked for hours on end. When she turned 16-17, or so, she told, that she's not a "he," but a "she". I thought she was joking, I didn't get the seriousness of it all. But as I understood she was serious, I decided to support her. I even helped her pick her new name. Her mother was kind of a religious nut, so she was against that, and wanted to force her to some "Christian rehabilitation," and whatnot. But after long years of struggle, she's on her way to full transition, lives in Japan, and works with robot AI. She's one of the smartest people I've known.

As people, individuals, every one of the ones that I've met was warm, beautiful, and kind.

... But as a community, LGBTQ has flaws like every community: instances of radicalism, tribalism, etc.

I just think that- why hate lgbtq people? there is literally no reason to hate them. like, you can't just be like, I don't like lgbtq people, they're weird. if you have an actually good reason to hate us, then comment and i'll see. not encouraging anyone to hate us, though.

Proud supporter of the community. I have met some people who think they’re better than others because they’re gay or trans, but I just feel sorry for them and do my best to ignore their bitter behaviour. And I would love to adopt those who have been rejected by their own families so that they can experience a good home enviroment and get all the love and support they need.

As a bi/pan woman, I am super proud of our community and how far we've come. The hate that the LGBTQ+ community still faces is heartbreaking, extremely damaging and oftentimes lethal. I REFUSE to see it as an opinion. "I don't like broccoli" is an opinion. "I dont like gay/trans people" is hate.
This hate is born of ignorance and fear. We have to fight that.
I am so so sorry that people have made you feel bad for something that is simply a part of who you are. A wonderful part! The LGBT community, while certainly not perfect, is one of love and acceptance and freedom. We're magical and beautiful! Dont let anyone take that away from you.
You are valid, you are worthy and you are so so so loved ♥️
