LGBTQ+ people, feel free to leave a tip or ask for advice on writing queer characters or romance irl or something like that. Also, you can drop random quotes or links to gay videos (as long as they're appropriate)

i mean when i'm reading an LGBTQ+ book i like it when queer relationships are written the same as someone would write a straight relationship. like there's really no romantic differences. i hope that kind of helps whoever needs it?

Transmascs- I feel like y'all know this, but if you can't bind, try sports bras, especially tighter ones. And sweaters with embroidered lettering on the front is bomb.

the only problem is that a look of books about queer relationships are mostly written with the same plot: boy meets boy (or girl meets girl), after a while they get together and then break up because of a misunderstanding or injury to one of the characters. One of the parents is usually some kind of homophobic and there's always the old ex and bullies. Not that all of that isn't realistic, it's just that it's overwritten and I'm looking for some queer fantasy books. Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom does a good job with Wylan and Jesper

Crier's War by Nina Varela is an excellent queer fantasy novel, and We Are Okay by Nina LaCour is an excellent queer realistic fiction one!

gays! kiss the guy or the gal, you won't regret it.

unless it makes the person really uncomfortable, please remember to respect boundaries!

update:
gays! kiss the guy or the gal if they're cool with it! you won't regret it.

And if you're not at risk of outing yourself or them <3

hence if they're cool with it, like if it's a risk then Don't Do It but if it's not and consent is given then DO IT!

Was it really an accident?? sarcasm And it's totally normal to have a crush on your best friend, but I don't think that there's some kind of magical spell that will make things better, so talk to them (if you are comfortable with that and you have a pretty good idea of what they're going to say)

it actually was an accident. we’re really close so i went to go kiss them on the cheek and they tried to do the same thing at the same time so yeah. i don’t want to ruin anything so i’m definitely not going to talk to them about it anytime soon

that sounds so cute!!!!! If he tried to kiss you on the cheek while you were trying to kiss him on the cheek,,,,,, I would say it might be safe to talk about it

Another Tip: There's testosterone gel! I think there's estrogen too, but I'm not sure. So if for any reason injections are a no, look into the gel <3
